Aug-09-07		arctic tern: Pretty mating net by Jones at the end. If 46...Kh7 then 47.Bf6 leads to mate as well. I wonder if Houska blundered somewhere in the ending though?

Aug-10-07		TommyC: Apparently she was in severe time trouble between moves 30 and 40, replying more or less instantly. Shame she got nothing for her creative play.

Aug-12-07		belgradegambit: Wonderfully inventive play by Houska. 20...Nxd4! must be sound since Black gets 3 pawns and the initiative. Not sure where she lost her way.
