cyclon: Pretty nice little 'reel' by White starting with 25. Qe6+ Kxc7 ( 25. -Kd8 26. Qe8+ Kxc7 27. Rb7X halts immediately ) 26. Rb7+ Kd8 27. Nc6+ Rxc6 ( 27. -Nxc6 28. Qd7X ) 28. Rb8+ Kc7 ( 28. -Rc8 29. Rxc8X ) 29. Qc8 HALT.

cyclon: To me it occurs that White wins the exchange and pawn by 11. Qf7 Rxf7 ( 11. -Rg8 12. Qxf6 [White captures this pawn because the threat was 12. -fxg5. Q on f6 pins the Bg7 for the fleeting moment] and now either 12. -exf6 13. Nf7X, or 12. -Bxf6 which opens the h6-f8 diagonal for Bh6 ...

cyclon: I found this Puzzle relatively difficult despite of it's being classified as "medium", because best I could come up today was ( maybe there is a better line instead ) ; 18. -Nxf3+ ( 18. -Rxe3 gets nothing for Black as far as I can see ) 19. gxf3 Qg5+ ( 19. -Bxe3 is not quite ...

cyclon: I got the game-line in my analysis, but didn't consider it the most serious defence for White. Black is pawn up with the Bishop-pair in the open end-game situation. It's not difficult to estimate whom the 'fate' favors taking into consideration, that in these puzzles are usually ...

cyclon: < GauraNitai> It seems that your line 22. -Bd7 23. Qh3 is !!-move.

cyclon: Nice, nice, nice! I like this one. My solution in Today's Puzzle is; 32. Bf5+ exf5 ( 32. -Kh8 33. Bg6 wins immediately. Also 32. -g6 33. Bxg6+ Kg7/Kh8 34. Qf8X ) 33. Qxf5+ Kh8 ( 33. -Kxh6 34. Qg6X , or 33. -g6 34. Qxg6+ Kh8 35. Qg8X ) 34. Qf8+ Kh7 35. Qg8+ Kxh6 and now;
36. Rf6+ ( ...

cyclon: < Rhialto:> <"But as for 21.f6, I'm pretty sure the problem with that is 21...Kh7 22.e5 Qg4! preventing the game idea, at least for a little while. "> Your suggestion 22. -Qg4 gets 23. Re4 Qc8 ( or 23. -Qd7 in which case there is no need to play 'good-looking' 24. e6, ...

cyclon: I'd suggest today 24. Ne7+ because if 24. -Qxe7 ( 24. -Rxe7 25. Rd8+ Re8 26. Rxe8+ Qxe8 27. Qxh7+ Kf8 28. Bc5+ curfew ) 25. Rxe6 Qxe6 26. Qxh7+ Kf8 27. Rf3+ and closing-time. Then, after 24. Ne7, if 24. Kh8 follows 25. Nxg6+ Kg8 26. Nxe5 and where-ever the Black Queen moves, then ...

cyclon: I praise how White finished Black after 18. -e5 in the game-line 17. -gxf6, which I thought inferior to 17. -Re8. But I didn't find the game-line, that's a fact. White's 19. Qh6!! and 21. Rd3!! are forceful moves and by no means evident ones.
