  nasmichael: There was a book on "The Lion" -- a variation by a German author a few years ago, offered at New In Chess website. Is this the same variation?

This was an easy one. I got 3 points all the time without guessing the exact moves.

May-06-12  Octal: Does anyone have variations for white's 34th move? I'm not sure if it's the best because it's just immediately losing, but not like anything else looks much better.

Black's plan was 34...Rc8, winning the c2 pawn. There's no way for White sopping this and he chose one of a thousand other ways to lose this game. :)

  fredthebear: This is game #44 in "Masters of the Chessboard" by Richard Reti. This book is an enjoyable, instructional chess classic well worth reading.
Jan-13-16  sulaco11: 21. ...g6 (and not Queen takes g4??) If Queen takes at g4 then: 22. Bxf7+ and the black queen is on the same diagonal with her white counterpart. Cute little trap :)
