Jul-20-07		Karpova: Clever defense by Tartakover but in the end it turned out to be insufficient as Rubinstein knew how to make use of his advantage. 45.Rc7! threatening 46.Rh7 with mate to follow forces black to play 45...Bxc7 Black resigned when Zugzwang couldn't be avoided any longer.

Dec-14-11		mahout: 42..Rb8 took me a little while to see this stalemate trap.

Dec-14-11		mahout: This is listed as Queens Gambit Declined but should be Queens Gambit Accepted.
