Jan-02-03		bishop: "Games similar to this one" show 14.Rg1 as the new move in this position in this database. As it is White's intention to transfer his Queen's Rook to the h-file it seems to me that 14...f5 was not the correct way to play for Black.

Jan-02-03		drukenknight: what was the purpose of 20...Rg7 perhaps 20...Qa5?

Jan-05-03		skid: He must find a way to put the a8 rook into play.

Jan-05-03		ChessPraxis: <To drunkenknight> The purpose of 20 ... Rg7 was to protect g6. White was threatening 21. Qxg6+!! If 21. ... hxg6 then 22. Rh8+ Kg7 23. R3h7#. If 21. ... Rg7 then 22. Rxh7 Rxg6 and 23. Rh8 leads to mate. White would mate in one to three moves.

Jan-07-03		Honza Cervenka: ChessPraxis, are you sure that (for example after an indifferent move like 20...a5) 21.Qxg6+ Rg7 22.Rxh7 (Quite interesting continuation seems to be 22.Qxg7+ Kxg7 23.Rxh7+ as 23...Kg6 leads to mate through 24.R3h6+ Kf5 25.Rf7+ Kg4 26.h3# or 25...Ke5 26.f4#) 22...Rxg6 23.Rh8+ Kf7 leads to mate? I don't see it.

Jan-08-03		ChessPraxis: <to Honza> : Yes, you're right. I was careless. I had the right first move, but when you're sacrificing Queens you should be sure of all the moves.
