| Calculoso: Easy puzzle (how many moves could white have done?). I think I have seen this before, but how many of us would have seen this OTB? Pretty difficult spot for an upset, about-to-lose chess player. |

| aw1988: My logical side at first was too strong for this puzzle. I'm thinking, how can a queen win vs this many pawns? Perhaps zugzwang checking picking up all the pawns? That's when I realized it's not a win, white draws by sacrificing his queen. Oh well, it's only monday. Tuesday next. I'll pray I get it tomorrow :) |

| buscher07: Doesn't that make you feel great to pull a move like that when you are down? :) Brilliant. |

| Tactic101: Pretty beautiful. I almost fell into a stalemate trap when I was playing the Zonals, but my opponent missed it! |

| WhiteRook48: Delmar was probably shocked. Oh, and who on earth is Charles A Gilberg? |
|
| Dec-23-08 |
| WhiteRook48: Black surely couldn't believe this stalemate...
reading the score:
1/2-1/2???? What????? is probably what Delmar was thinking |
|
| Jan-05-09 |
| WhiteRook48: this would make a good monday puzzle |
|
| Jan-07-09 |
| WhiteRook48: I wonder... it's said that "If you are way ahead in material and you allow stalemate, you feel foolish!"
Delmar probably thought, "How could I have let that slip away..."
By the way, how COULD Black have won this endgame? |

| WhiteRook48: an excellent way to draw. Plus this is an excellent page to spend my 1500th kibitz. |
|
| Jan-10-09 |
| WhiteRook48: I mean my 1601st. |
|
| Jan-20-09 |
| WhiteRook48: 43...Qc3??? I must be missing a threat that caused black to make this move. The simple 43...Kh7 might do, but then the Queen starts chasing the king around with stalemate traps. |
|
| Jan-22-09 |
| WhiteRook48: Wait, no, the Queen's not on c3 yet. 43...Kh7 wins. |

| thebribri8: Are you talking to yourself? |
|
| Jan-25-09 |
| WhiteRook48: just correcting an error that I'd made before. Yes, I was talking to myself. |

| whiteshark: Betty should have played <37...Qd5> |

| thebribri8: <WhiteRook48> Congratulations on eight straight kibitzes! That is the most I have seen in quite a while. |

You may wonder if/why they all have been ignored? |
|

| WhiteRook48: 8 straight kibitzes? I think there's a record on the Charles Storey page |
|
| Jan-31-09 |
| thebribri8: Yes, but I hadn't seen that in a while. |
|
| Oct-14-09 |
| crosscheck: Black blew it. If he had played 43...Qa1+ then he could have played 43...Qb2=, forcing the queens off! |
|

| GrahamClayton: Does this game hold the record for the most material by a player when stalemating a lone king? |
