| Spitecheck: Hmm I was wrong, the upload did work, (eventually) thanks chessgames.com. This game is mentioned by Soltis as the best women's game of chess every played or something to that effect so I figured some might want to see it. It does have errors but it also has some quite sparkling play. Spitecheck |

| Honza Cervenka: Brilliant game of Nona. By the way, the table of 1961 women's candidate tournament is on http://www.mark-weeks.com/chess/61w... |

| Chessical: The "best" game? It was certainly very hard fought, and perhaps the "wrong" player won! Poor Lazarevich she played very well only to blunder it all away, albeit to a very fine combinational sequence. 28.Qxa7+? - this natural move is a disaster for Lazarevich, with 28.Qb3 she can deal with Gaprindashvili's desperate threats and consolidate her own advantage - 28.Qb3 Bd7 29.Qd1. After 28.Qxa7 the Black K escapes into the K-side, and blocks off escape squares for Lazarevich's own K. 30.Re1? is the final straw after which Gaprindashvili offers a fine B sac based on ideas of N(d)xf4.Lazarevich could have kept fighting with 30.Rg1 |

| Phoenix: I think on Chessical's 28.Qb3, then Ne3 for Black is perfectly fine. If White's Knight moves, Qh5 is mate and if 29.Rg1 guarding on g2, then just Qxf3. And on 30.Rg1, then Ne3 again seems to collapse White's position. |

| kevin86: Chess is one game in which the female play the same game as the male;there are no smaller basketballs,ladies' tees,smaller fields,etc. It's too bad that there aren't more great women players. |

| kevin86: an addendum,doesn't anyone notice that the QUEEN is the strongest piece on the board? The king moves like a queen with a walker,one short step at a time. LOL! |

| CapablancaRules: I do not agree, Kevin86. I think the women are playing better than ever. Look to this generation: Lahno, Koneru, Kosteniuk, the Polgar sisters... How can you say such a thing? |

| kevin86: You are probably right CapablancaRules,it's not that I did research in the topic,it's just that I never here of the top women enough;here,we are trying to give our girls' sports more coverage and attention by playing some of the games on Friday. As the PGA men say,slightly changed,:These girls are good! |

| wanabe2000: I discovered IM Milunka Lazarevic's games in "Yugoslav Chess Triumphs" 1976 by the Informant folks. She was an eleven times Yugoslav Woman Champion. |
