Sep-11-06		Gypsy: Game #13.

Sep-12-06		An Englishman: Good Evening: I've observed that the Bishop and Knight seem to be such bitter enemies that they often refuse to work together even they're on the same side. Certainly, if even Steinitz couldn't get them to get along...

May-30-10		Chessical: click for larger view <17.d5!> is very strong. (i) <17...Na5> 18. dxe6 fxe6 19. Bxe6+ Bxe6 20. Qxe6+ Qxe6 21. Rxe6; or (ii) <17...exd5> 18. Nxd5 Nxd5 19. Bxd5 Re8 20. Qd3 Rad8 21. Ng5 both with advantage to White.

Aug-31-12		ephesians: Tough ending, hard to evaluate. Maybe Steinitz should have drawn this anyway.
