 | | pawntificator: Why did black give up that pawn 26...c4 to put that bishop on 25...c5? What was he trying to accomplish? |
|

 | | Sneaky: I think he was trying to put pressure on f2. Maybe he was secretly hoping for 28. Ne1?? Rxf2+ |
|
| Jan-26-04 | | Minor Piece Activity: This is called deflection right? It's always a good idea to look for knight forks when so many of your opponent's pieces (or your pieces!) are on the same color since knights can only influence one type at a time although they can switch unlike bishops... |

| | catfriend: a) What's the target? A mate doesn't seem likely
b) I see my knight threatens a fork on f7
c) The dark menacing rook guards f7, but also  e6
d)The line 28.f7+??  :f7 29. :e6R:f3 isn't really great! So I understand :e6 wins the exchange (with best defence by black) |

 | | kevin86: Note that white's knight on e5 has a additional duty:it prevents d3+,stealing white's queen |

| Jan-26-04 | | hart: Following the gentle encouragement of a fellow kibitzer, this morning I eschewed any logical approach to the chess puzzle. I closed my eyes and used the Force. The solution came to me in a moment beyond time, embracing eternity. Only then did I look at the puzzle. Now I am free to leave the monastery and walk the earth. |

| | catfriend: :):) Well, as the classic saying goes: Let the HORSE be with you! (spoken by Chigorin, who was very fond of them...) BTW, "The dark side" means simply the black, doesn't it? and when was Yoda awarded his "master" title? |
|
| Jan-26-04 | | mrvocab: It's nice to see that even grandmasters are capable of real howlers, just like the rest of us patzers. Black's 27...Bc5 must qualify as a real howler. |
|
| Jan-26-04 | | NotShee: This was easy; took only 10 seconds. |
|
| Jan-26-04 | | Thunderbunny350: Although it is nice to see puzzles that haven't been published in over three billion tactics books, it would be better of the "tactics" weren't little tricks made possible by a ?? move. Surely Lasker-Bauer and Levitsky-Marshall though trite are better than this. |

| | AlexBabich: It is easy to follow the thought process of Black. He creates an extra pressure on f2, sacrificing his pawn. And once White moves 28. g1?? Black can activate his great trap with moves 28... xf2+! 29.  e1 d2#!! You just have to agree that this outcome deserved some attention from Black. |
|
Jan-26-04
| | catfriend: I doubt a GM would count on all this... and WHY d2# deserves an !! ????????? |

| | rover: I think the idea behind the pawn sac. was to follow up with Qf8 and/or Ng5, putting pressure on the pinned knight. |
