Nov-17-05		keypusher: Another Gligoric blunder against Fischer. In a superior position, Gligoric plays 42 Bxe5? de 43 Nxe5, attacking the queen and the a-pawn, but simply 43...Qd6 saves both.

Feb-06-08		Cibator: After Black's final move, the Qs come off, and not even those three joined passers in the middle will be able to do anything against the B. What makes Gligo's 42nd even more inexcusable is that it was his sealed move - why ever didn't he just make a nice steady advantage-preserving move, and THEN look for tactical opportunities during the adjournment.

Feb-06-08		Gameoverziggy: Simple win now for black, his king and bishop will control the 3 passers while he either queen's his a pawn or forces a passed pawn on the king side.

Feb-29-12		drukenknight: what I am looking at is 44 Ng4 in order to give the Q more scope on the a6 diagonal and the N is close enuf to maybe give a check later. also what about 50 Qa7?
