| Nov-12-09 | | birthtimes: Nezh understood the concept of co-ordinating one's pieces. For example, 10.Qg4 is in co-ordination with White's knight on c3 which threatens to take on d5 since Black's c8 bishop is unprotected. And 12.Nh3 followed by 14.Nf4 co-ordinates well with the c3 knight and the e3 queen in putting pressure on d5 and e6, and with the e2 bishop in putting pressure on h6. 18. Bf3 puts co-ordinates well with the two knights by putting additional pressure on d5, and 19.Qe2 co-ordinates well with bishop and knight to increase the pressure on h5. 20. Rhe1 co-ordinates well with queen and knight to put further pressure on e6, and he also could have won two different times with a knight sac, namely 20.Ncxd5 or 23.Ncxe6!!! |

| Mar-31-12 | | iamdeafzed: What I find most hilarious about this game is how Super Nezh sacrificed two knights to get at the black king, then won black's queen after losing a rook, then did a rook "sacrifice" designed to win two minor pieces and then...gives back the queen. Only to trap black's extra knight, leaving Nezh with a won rook and minor piece ending. Brilliant play by Nezh. |

| Mar-31-12 | | rilkefan: I was surprised by 29.Rxd8 instead of simply Rxf8+. After ...Rhxf8 30.Qe2 white has a mating attack with Q+B+pawns and black is dropping h5 and more. I guess there's something to be said for simplifying to an obviously won endgame though, and capturing the knight is a lot more elegant than the above. |

I don't really see where white's "mating attack" (as you put it) would proceed after your suggested line. Did you have something else in mind after Qe2? Given what I see in the position right now, I think I would have preferred Nezh's way...seems to leave black's remaining pieces more uncoordinated. |

| Apr-04-12 | | rilkefan: Well, I don't know if there's a forced mate in n, but black has to be careful to hang onto his king and should drop his pawns while doing so. Consider 30... Nc6 31. Bxh5+ Kg7 32. Qg4+ Kh8 33. Bg6 f5 34. Qh5+ Kg7 35. Bxf5 Rf6 36. Qh7+ Kf8 37. g4 Rdd6 38.Qxc7. |
