| Nov-18-09 | | psmith: <JG27Pyth>, <David2009> 11...Bd7 12. Bxd7+ is better, and seems good for White. 12...Nbxd7 13. Ne6
12...Nfxd7 13. Ne6
12...Kxd7 13. N2f3! exf4 (13...Kc8 14. Nxe5) 14. Nc6+

| Nov-18-09 | | JG27Pyth: Psmith: <11...Bd7 12. Bxd7+ is better, and seems good for White.> Don't get me wrong, after 11...Bd7 White has the better game in more than one variation... it's just that Kf7 loses outright. 11...Bd7 leaves Black with reason to continue. By no means is he equal. I believe with accurate play he ends up down a full pawn without compensation. |

Alot of our younger Kibitzers may not get that one. BTW, if the Professor could make cars out of bamboo and a radio out of a coconut, how come he coudn't patch a lousy hole in the boat!!! |

I don't think you can be a true chess fan ... everyone should love the way Keres finished his opponent off here. |

"I have seen Black's name given as Verbac, Werbak and Vernacher and the
year as 1932, 1933 and 1934. According to an item by Carl Eric Erlandsson in E.
Winter's book "Chess Explorations" p51, Verbak and 1932 are correct. That
dating is right but the name is wrong. Valter Heuer's book "Meie Keres" ("Our
Keres" p.93) says the game was played between September and October 1932 i.e.
when Keres was 16. Heuer told me that "<Werbak>" was correct spelling; the
player was an Estonian so Heuer is almost certainly right." -- Timothy David Harding in UltraCorr database * Estonian Champion Valter Heuer wrote a.m. major Keres monograph |

| Jun-12-10 | | whiteshark: <13.... Ke8> was actually played. (13...Kg7 Dyckhoff's booklet "Fernschach-Kurzschlüsse" and the Steinkohl book "Faszination Fernschach" give the finish as 14.Qh6+ 1–0 <but this was just the start of a variation given by Keres>: 14...Kxh6 15.Rh4+ Kg7 16.Bh6#) <14.Qxe5+ Qe7 15.Qxf6> Black resigned here, according to Fernschach, but Heuer gives more moves. <15...Qxe3+ 16.Kh1 Qxd2 17.Re4+ 1–0.> Apparently Black resigned although Keres did not play the most precise move.[<17.Bb5+> forcing mate in 4] 1–0 ibidem |
|
| Jun-12-10 | | CapablancaFan122: <whiteshark> So the actual continutation is 13..Ke8? I was wondering why black didn't play it. |
|
| Jun-12-10 | | whiteshark: <CapablancaFan122: So the actual continutation is 13..Ke8?> Yes. <I was wondering why black didn't play it.> Well, he did. See my last post. :D |

| Jun-12-10 | | kevin86: Black thought that he would win a piece. Instead,he suffered six straight on-the-bias checks,ending in mate. "Terse,I hate to see testy":General Bud Haggerty to Colonel Potter on MASH-season 8. |

| Apr-28-11 | | delibey: Keres utilizes an important defensive resource against forks: mate. |
