Apr-15-05		thesonicvision: why this man (tate) has never attempted to receive higher titles (i.e. IM, GM) is beyond me.

Apr-15-05		Honza Cervenka: Very sharp game but I think that Sagalchik's 12...bxc6 was a weak move. Why not 12...Bxb2+ 13.Kxb2 fxg5 instead of taking a pinned Knight which cannot escape?

Apr-15-05		Honza Cervenka: 20.Qxd7+ was possible too.

Apr-15-05		Poisonpawns: Also known in blitz circles as E.T!!

Apr-15-05		kevin86: Maybe Emory didn't progress too far because he was bored-HA HA. Black's pawn had a plan to reach e1 to get his rook back--but was unable to ford the well guarded river known as e2.

Apr-15-05		WannaBe: I do not think 20. Qxd7+ is possible. Unless I misread a line or a post...

Apr-15-05		jahhaj: 20 xd7+ xd7 21 xd7 threatens 22 xf7# and 22 d8+ e7 23 1d7#. I think Black must give up his queen to avoid mate.

Apr-16-05		WannaBe: Oops, I should have looked again. I take back my last post. Sorry.

Mar-09-06		Poisonpawns: One of Tates greatest efforts: Morphy like!

Apr-23-08		mate2900s: amazing effort by tate in my opinion one of the greatest tacticians alive wow! and watching his analysis sessions are priceless
