 | | kevin86: An easy Wednesday puzzle-a forced mate in four! This is made even easier in that I've seen the game before-though it must have been about thirty years ago. |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | schnarre: That was a nasty way to be defeated. |

 | | YouRang: I found it pretty rapidly once I considered the vulnerability of the white king to mate threats from the bishop (along a7-g1 diagonal) and the queen (Qe1#). I also noticed that the black knight was positioned to give check (an important point if we want to threaten Qe1#). Putting the pieces together is easy: (1) deflect the queen from defending e1 with the bishop checks, then use the clearance sac Ne2+ (winning the queen with Qe1# mate threat). |

| Dec-27-06 | | aragorn69: <TrueBlue: I don't want to write that I saw it in 10 seconds because some people may not like it> Well, you can brag about it, but I actually saw it in less than <two seconds>. And - in this case - there are no tricky side variations! ;-)) |

| Dec-27-06 | | mckmck: I got it. This is the second puzzle i solved. Simple. |

 | | playground player: Gee, got all the moves right away. Am I turning into David Bronstein, you think? |
|

 | | unclewalter: i'm not a great player, but i would have had to think something was up when david bronstein plays Be6... |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | haha: Yay!!!
I got this one in 10 secs.
So that means it's simple. :P |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | Themofro: A nice puzzle although not that hard for a Wednesday. Would have been interesting to see how Bronstein would have fared if white HAD played 7. Bxf7. Nice mate in four though by Bronstein, not that hard, but nice. |

| Dec-27-06 | | kbaumen: This was quick for me. 10 seconds or something. Pretty Tuesdayish, nevertheless, a nice puzzle. <Themofro: A nice puzzle although not that hard for a Wednesday. Would have been interesting to see how Bronstein would have fared if white HAD played 7. Bxf7. Nice mate in four though by Bronstein, not that hard, but nice.> Not really a mate, white can still give up his queen. :D |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | Themofro: True, but would still be hopelessly lost of course. |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | aazqua: Put me down for about 4 seconds. There aren't a whole lot of options here and it's clear where the pieces will have to go. |

From the BRONSTEIN's book " THE SOURCER APPRENDIST" ( the translaction is mine from a french edition...sorry for the possibles mistake).
BRONSTEIN give here he's final comment about a game **BRONSTEIN-PALMIOTTO** played in the 1958 chess olympic games: <The game was played in the URSS-ITALY match. Cause im a follower of the famous italian classic school, i managed to create an uncompromise attack with my pawns, to demonstrate that even in a "half-open" game is possible to create a combinative style attack.Several years after, In the 1990 i was guested to partecipate in a ROME tournament. Absolutly unexpected, at least for me, also BOTVINNIK whose there. I asked to the organizers if he was in the player-list. "NO," they answered me, " he's here to receive the GIOACCHINO GREGO PRICE." I asked if he had ever played a game in the classical italian's schoole style...."NO," they answered, "But in one of he's books he wrote that GRECO was a great player...." Five years far from, im still very amused by this ingenuousness, and im ask to myself if those italians organizers had ever seen one of my games!> WELL.... for a fate of the destiny....I WAS THERE WHEN BRONSTEIN RAISED UP HE'S GLANGE FROM THE CHESS BORDER AND SAW BOTVINNIK!!!!!...... If you BRONSTEIN's fans (of course, too x me he was a giant...) like it, in a future post, i will give my evidence. Like FORREST GUMP...." I NEED A LITTLE NAP" ......GOOD NIGHT |

| Dec-27-06 | | nimzo knight: GOT IT !! |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | laskereshevsky: P.S. excuse me, but x to be honest i had forget a part of the BRONSTEIN's speach.
Posted it between < combinative style attack> and <several years after> :<YES, THE ITALIAN CLASSIC SCHOOL's ITS REALLY IMMORTAL!>...I apologize to all the italians, and all the italian classic school's fan... |
|
| Dec-27-06 | | ALEXIN: Not to much difficult, I think. |
|
| Aug-07-08 | | artspec: No point in bothering to say how long it took to find it. It's too simple to any player of intermediate level and above. |
|
| Aug-28-08 | | dwavechess: Bronstein concur with rybka 2.3.2 at 14 ply in 9/12 moves. |
|
| Sep-11-08 | | dwavechess: With Rybka 3 w32 at 3 minutes per move 10/12 83! for Bronstein, perfect combination from move 7. |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | WhiteRook48: nice knight fork |
|
| Jun-30-10 | | HannibalSchlecter: Bravo Bronstein! Magic! |

 | | Robed.Bishop: 7. 0-0 is better for white. |
|
| May-06-11 | | LIFE Master AJ: Incredible ... wordless/speechless. |
|
| Sep-26-11 | | MaczynskiPratten: In Bronstein's collection he entitles this game "The baton of generations", explaining that 8...Be6 was inspired by his favourite out of all Morphy's combinations. Does anyone know what that game might be? Here 8...Be6 is deliciously sneaky as it merely looks like a natural block of White's attack on f7. Who would guess at this point that it is actually to stop White's bishop interposing between a White King on g1 and a Black Queen on e1?! In Bronstein's book he gives the game as being played out to mate, which feels more artistic. |
