| Mar-13-09 | | jon01: An unnoticed masterpiece by Igor Kurnosov. White gets a huge attack with 15. Nf4!! |
 |
| Aug-15-09 | | Gambitor: Wow, very impressive, a really Rybka-like game by Kurnosov! |

| | whiteshark: Rybka in 2002? Kurnosov surely could combine many moves ahead w/o assistance. |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | vulcan20: Nf4 is the stroke of a genius. I especially liked the patient move 19. Rxd2! |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | felixd: Very nice game by Igor Kurnosov! I liked the attack :D |

 | | Annie K.: I submitted "Login Problem" for this game, but I suppose the plural is correct too. ;) |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | birthtimes: Black's failure to complete his development by leaving his light-squared bishop on the back rank, thereby obstructing his a8 Rook, and thus playing in effect a rook down, and his failure to play 15...f5, led to the sparkling combination by White. |

 | | Gregor Samsa Mendel: 17 Ncd5! impressed me. Black cannot play ...Qa5 because of Ne7#. |

| Aug-15-09 | | obender71: I have to kibitz to take record of this game. Sry, nothing useful to say other that this is one is a very remarkable combination. |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | WhiteRook48: forced to give the queen back |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | tentsewang: I don't like black's move on 18. ..e6, instead he/she should move queen on 18. ..Qd7 and black wins with preventive the checkmate. |

| Aug-15-09 | | ewenardus: <tentsewang: I don't like black's move on 18. ..e6, instead he/she should move queen on 18. ..Qd7 and black wins with preventive the checkmate.> If 18... Qd7 then 19.Nf6+ and white wins the black queen with discovered check nect move. |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | YoungEd: Very nice game! Since White's 15.  f4 looks to be a winning shot, what should Black have tried instead on move 14? Maybe just 14. ... e6 to connect the rooks and blunt the e-file? Anyone have any ideas? |
|
| Aug-15-09 | | YetAnotherAmateur: Give credit also to the lovely combination starting with 19. Ncd5. It's absolutely correct play, since the queen is a goner - if it leaves the 7th rank it allows Ne7#, if it doesn't then it either gets taken immediately on c7 or e7, or is grabbed via Nf6+. |
|
| Aug-29-09 | | birthtimes: 14...Ne6 would win Black the bishop pair if White plays 15. Nf4. |
|
| Aug-29-09 | | birthtimes: 11...Nb6 clears a path for the light-squared bishop to come out and play... |
