Feb-21-05		Whitehat1963: 21...Rc2! Great move!

Feb-25-05		samvega: Yeah, but I think the star move was 14..Ng4

May-25-06		aginis: from GM Flohr's annotations <18.Kh5? after this 'attacking' move black recieves an unstoppable attack. However, even after 18.Qe2 black has compensation for the pawn in the form of development and two bishops. 18...Qc4! (not 18...Rfd8 19.f5) 19.Qf2 Qd3 threatening 20...Rc2 or 20.Rf2 Rfd8.> <21.Qb3 Rh4 22.Be3 Rch8 23.Bg1 Bc5 24.Qg3 Qxb2 > <22.Rg1 Qd1! 23.Ne4 Bxe4 24.Qxe4 Rxh2> (25.Kxh2 Qh5+ 26.Kg3 Bh4+ 27.Kh3(h2)Bf2#)

Aug-30-06		notyetagm: Flohr finishes the game with the might tactical blows 21 ... c2! and 22 ... d3!, the latter move being a great example of <REMOVE THE GUARD>.

Aug-30-06		notyetagm: <21 ... d3! REMOVE THE GUARD> Attack the defender (White g3-queen) with a piece not needed for the attack (Black d4-queen) from a square not in the defensive complex (d3-square) and attack something else (undefended White f1-rook) at the same time (<DOUBLE ATTACK>).
