 |
| May-15-05 | | Milo: 52...f2+, yes? |
|
| May-15-05 | | Milo: Oh, nevermind, that doesn't work at all. |
|
| May-15-05 | | Milo: 52...f2+ 53.Nxf2  |
|
| Dec-22-05 | | optimusprimeooo: looks like black gave up or miscaculated bad endgame |
|
| Mar-05-06 | | DeepBlade: A big pawn mass takes a lot of tempo to move, than a lone pawn. |

 | | Phony Benoni: Apparently, Eugene Meyer has a sense of humor. You don't often see one player have three dark-squared bishops in the same game. |
|
| Dec-04-08 | | WhiteRook48: e1B+. fxe1B, weird... |
|
| Dec-22-08 | | WhiteRook48: Ha ha ha ha ha!!!! I would've laughed myself senseless if I'd seen this game. |
|
| Dec-22-08 | | Toadspring: Is there ever any advantage to under promoting a pawn to a bishop or rook? I understand promoting it to a knight because of various forks but otherwise a queen is always better... right? |
|
| Dec-22-08 | | Toadspring: I figured it out. Under promoting to a rook or bishop may help avoid stalemates in certain games. I didn't think of that earlier. |
|
| Dec-23-08 | | WhiteRook48: 4 dark-squared bishops in the same game.
1. White's Bc1 at the start and Be1 at the end.
2. Black's Bf8
3. the pawn who promoted with a check.
4. the pawn who promoted with a capture |
|
| Jan-05-09 | | WhiteRook48: the game seems like a draw. Maybe if white has that bishop controlling b6 and a7 black can't get to the a-pawn, or better, the bishop ON b6, white can get his king over to h8 and play h8Q Nxh8 Kxh8 hoping to get the a pawn to queen? Anyone got an answer? |
|
| Feb-03-09 | | WhiteRook48: I suppose the promotion to bishop wasn't necessary |
|
| Mar-09-09 | | WhiteRook48: or simply maybe 50 Bc3+ followed by 51. h8=Q Nxh8 52 Bxh8 |
|
| Apr-15-09 | | WhiteRook48: no, wait 49...Nh8 50 Bc3+ 51 Bxh8 |
