| Jan-30-06 | | Mate Hunter: After 15.Bg6+ black could protect the mate 16.Qf7# with 15...Qf6 (16.Rxf6+ and then 17.Qf7#). It's better to be mated at the 17th move than the 16th move. |

| Mar-17-06 | | DeepBlade: Chess made easy. A piece( ) sac, to create a advanced-Queen weakness, and exploitong the weakness by 13.Bxf4 a nice tempo move. Notice the KGA Rook on f1, his line of attack aims at the Black King. Check, pin, discovered check, mate. |
|
| Mar-17-06 | | RookFile: I think 7. c3 was a very good move by Philidor, especially for 1790.
It deadens the g7 bishop and prepares the way for the Bc4/Qb3 battery. Years later, as great a King's Gambit expert as Spassky erred with Nc3 in a similar position against Fischer, instead of the correct c3. Spassky vs Fischer, 1960 |

| May-21-07 | | Whitehat1963: Quite a combination (or puzzle) after 10...hxg5. (Player of the Day) |
|
| May-21-07 | | Autoreparaturwerkbau: From move 10-14 white takes 5 pawns in 5 moves. I've never seen such streak yet. So giving up the knight could hardly be called a sac. |

| Oct-15-08 | | just a kid: A slaughter to say the least. |
