chopin4525: <morfishine:BTW: From the Puzzle position Black to move 42, I would've bet this was KID...Who would've thought this was a RUY :)> Same thought here. Surprising indeed this pawn storm in a Ruy.

| | May-24-12 Zukertort vs Englisch, 1883 
| |
chopin4525: I got this right according to Zukertort and his game combination but when I analyzed the entire game with Houdini I saw this: Analysis by Houdini 2.0c Pro w32:
1. (#14): 1.Qa4+ Kf8 2.Qb4 Qxb4 3.c8Q+ Kf7 4.Qd7+ Kf8 5.Nxb4 ...

chopin4525: <ounos: I wonder about 8. ...Bxc3 too. Perhaps 9. Bg5 and 10. Rc1?> 8... xc3 9. g5

|
chopin4525: Tal-like! :)
This is the type of sacrifice I always play in bullet games or blitz games when the opponent is in time trouble. Players usually overlook something in the accurate defense of the king. Sometimes sacrifeces are sound and work, sometimes are just useful to struggle ...

chopin4525: My thoughts were lead by a sacrificial line
28....,Nc2
29.Rxd7,Rxd7
30.bxc5,Bb2
31.c6,Ke7
32.cxd7,Bxc1
33.c5,Kxd7 (=).
But I see it was wrong because it throws away the advantage. There's no way, I truly love sacrifices. xD

chopin4525: Judging from the name and the surname, I really thought he was an Italian player unknown to me. I was wrong. :)

chopin4525: Was Blackburn the Black Death or the Dead White? xD

| | Nov-28-09 Miles vs Z Mestrovic, 1990 
| |
|
chopin4525: Missed!
I thought 19.h3 was the best move in my analysis and I missed the 19.f6 interesting variation because after 19...,Nxf6 20.Bd5 I didn't see any chances for a strong white initiative against the black king.
