| Luckyicekiller: Wow....jackmandoo...You should change your name to Wakmandoo--but that was lame. Anyway, your holiday sounds even more nuts than Christmas. And if you can't stand some random guy (no offense ass[tard]) posting a Christmas wish, you are indeed in need of professional help. Christmas isn't my holiday either, but it shouldn't be about the gifts and the massive debt that tends to come out of it. It should be (and sometimes is) a chance to be with your friends and family, to show you care, and to connect with others. "No man is an island, an entity unto himself [probably adapted]" (Hemmingway's FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS preface). Deal with the Merry Christmas greeting and get over yourself. And please don't complain on the one time of the year you should be thankful and happy. |

| Archives: <but it shouldn't be about the gifts and the massive debt that tends to come out of it.> It shouldn't be, but usually is. Christmas seems to be only a consumer driven holiday these days. I told my parents to get me a gold plated, diamond encrusted chess set this year. If they don't make with the goods, then boy will I have to "air some grievances" with them. |

| kevin86: This is one of the most beautiful finishes ever! The knights are lined up on the bias-two moves later,they are in a box---the perfect shape to box in the black king. |

Good luck when you stand before Him for judgement. |

| underdoggum: Some of you more liberal chess-"enthusiasts" who are all about equal rights and anti-Christmas should try to rethink your logic. Not all of us Christians are about malls and presents. In our perspective, giving is a heartfelt act. 'Woe to ye hypocrites' wit yo punk-self |

| Bob726: 12 0-0 is perfectly fine for black is 13 Qh5 is met by Bf5! when black is at least equal; Nxf7? Qxd4 and black is winning while Bxf7 Kh8 is unclear |

| OBIT: Sorry to interrupt the fun, but I thought I'd throw in some analysis to this game. :) After 12...O-O, as suggested by <Bob726>, the sacrifice 13. Nxh7+! looks very promising. After 13...Kxh7 (clearly, refusing the sacrifice by 13...Re8 won't slow down White's attack) 14. Qh5+ Kg8 15. Re4, White threatens Rh4. The best try to stop the mate appears to be 15...Nf5 (not 15...g6 16. Qh6 Nf5 17. Qxg6+), but then 16. Bg5 looks very strong; for example, 16...Qe8 17. Nd5!, with no defense to 18. Nf6+ gxf6 19. Bxf6 and mates. After 13. Nxh7, does Black have a defense? |

| patzer of patzers: <syracrophy> In your variation (something I was just wondering about, thanks!), 23. Ne4+ wins more quickly. |

| OhioChessFan: Only 2 spelling mistakes in one 3 syllable word. What's the problem? Back to the game. Isn't Ba3 a nice move? Look at all it does. |

| blacksburg: <Shortly after this game Clemens was investigated upon the suspicion of taking performance enhancing drugs.> looks like clemens is gonna have an appointment with the grand jury. perhaps this game needs an asterisk? |

| parmetd: 16... Bxd4 seems to be a big blunder. It appears that 16... Nxd4 might lead to equality but what caught my eye is what happens on 16... Rg8 17. Ne6+ Ke8 now white has a slight plus but how best to realize it? 18 Bg5 or 18 Qh5+ or 18 dxe5 |
 |

 |
| parmetd: on second thought maybe white is still winning after 18 dxe5 Rxg5 19 exd6 cxd6 20 Ne4 |
