Aug-09-12		Sem: 12 ... a6 seems a waste to me.

Aug-09-12		Eyal: Yeah, 12...a6 seems like an almost pure waste of time and 13...Nbd5 in the next move doesn't help much either to hinder White's quick attack. Nbd7 is the main line on moves 11 & 12, and it was probably better on move 13 as well. After 16.g5 White already seems to be winning by force. 18...Nxh7 would lose to 19.Bxh7+ Kxh7 20.Qh5+ Kg8 21.Rxg7+! Kxg7 22.Bh6+ and mate in a few moves.

Aug-09-12		uscfratingmybyear: I hope this guy gets some big tourney invites soon, he is a tactical monster.

Aug-09-12		310metaltrader: nice mate in 3 for white.

Aug-10-12		HeMateMe: Busted!

Aug-10-12		KingV93: Great game. Amazing how a 2635 player gets wiped out in 23 moves, a tactical blitzkrieg.

Aug-11-12		Ulhumbrus: An alternative to 13...Nbd5 is 13...Nfd7 playing to simplify and on 14 Qe4 f5 obstructs the queen on the b1-h7 diagonal

Aug-28-12		chrisfalter: In the final position: * 23...Nxf6 24. Qh4+ Kg7 25. Qg5+ Kh8 26. Qxf6+ Kg8 27. Qg5+ Kh8 28. Qh6+ Kg8 29. Qh7# * 23...Bxe5 24. Qh5+ Kg7 25. Qg5+ Kh8 26. Qh6# Also, note that in the final position black's light-squared bishop and queen rook are idle on their starting squares.

Aug-31-12		Ulhumbrus: An alternative to 14 ...Bb4+ is 14...Nb4 attacking White's king's bishop. Did Sjugirov just touch the wrong piece?
