click for larger viewits even worst
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.......
(3) Few years ago, after an easy and very stupid blunder in the opening i found myself in this totally lost position: 
click for larger viewA whole pawn for nothing and a very bad mens placement.... Just a little before to resign I tried a last desperate trick: g5 
click for larger viewAnd now if black take with the H pawn... game over.
But probably he thought (as i hoped): <"...Why to allows white to resolve the problem of the ugly placed rook in h1?!... and why to put in h8 (after the rooks change) the well central placed rook?!..."> so he played: ...-fxg5, giving to me the chanche to equalize with: xh6 
click for larger viewAfter:...-f4; (of course he cant play x cause g5ch.) xh8-xh8; i took xd5-... and he cant play ...d8 cause xg5ch.(again!) win. (analysis diagram )
click for larger viewAfter the game's moves:...xd2; xd2-g4; g5ch (again!) I won the finale:.... 
click for larger viewAfter my xd2 the opponent realized that even now Rd8 cant be played, cause after g5ch. (again!) whatever he play at least he lost an exchange.... ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewg5ch was a real nightmare move for my opponent in this game... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++..........
(4) Played in 2004
click for larger viewOf course white (I) is already much better here, but I like the final shoot... d5
click for larger viewhere, worried by the lots of treaths, my opponent blundered with:...g7 and resigned after h7ch. 1-0 ... cause after the only ...f7; f1 is check mate... 
click for larger view...xc3; doesent change a lot... xc3-g7; xe6ch. ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger view++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.....
(5) Played in 1993
click for larger viewHere I played....-xh3;
click for larger viewe2-g3;
click for larger viewg2-xg2ch.
click for larger viewxh3-xf2;
click for larger viewNow Black have a deadly Queen check in e3, White is forced to do something against it... g4-... and after ...xb2 valutation is 
click for larger viewUnfortunatly, after the Queens and rooks trade, in a W's+ VS. B's (!) Finale, in a terrible zeitnot i wasnt able to find the (easy) winnig manouvre.... 0.5-0.5
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++......
(6) Played in 1990 (Wow!... Im so Old?!?!!) :(-D
Ok, was one of my first ever tournament....
click for larger viewI played ...-f3ch.; thinking of: xf3-xh3; f4-g4ch; f1-f3; ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewBut after f1 delused by the refusion of my "brilliant" sac, in this better position with a pawn up I accepted (sic!) the draw that, with an almost unheardable whisper, my more expert opponent offered.... 
click for larger view0.5-0.5
eeeehhhhhh!.... the younghood, the younghood..... so manx energy and power, but such a lack of experience... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.......
(7) Played in 2001
click for larger viewHere I played ...-xg3
click for larger viewThis move was in my mind already from a while, in case white had played f4. But when this move was made it, a long thought happened to me.... Simply I was worried about White's reply xg3.... In fact after. ...-xe3ch.; xe3-xf4ch.; f2-xe3ch.; xe3-h2ch. Black is OK ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger view Just, the emotive side during the game put on me always a big pression.... More, this was the last round, I had won all the games till now, For a lot I was tempted to offer draw and go to the Tournament's bar and sipping a good beer..... But the "Pathos" to see this sacrifice at work, at the end got me,
...like a fever.....
Game: xg3-xe3;
click for larger viewxe3-xf4ch.; f3-xd3; xe8ch.-f7; e3-xg3; e2 and after 5/6 moves W resigned. 0-1 
click for larger viewSo, I won this tournament ( open B ) with 6/6, at the time I was in good shape cause a month later I won another Open B with 5.5/6.... All in all i closed the 2001 with a record of +12 =2 -1
and the whole period 1999-2001 with +25 =9 -6
After xg3W cant take thed3 with the cause after f4ch. is forced lost. ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewIn case of g2 with: ...-f2ch.; h1-h2 Mate
( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewIn case of e2 with: ...-f2ch.; d1-xg1ch. etc.
( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewAt the time I was very proud to foresaw all the side-lines before to play xg3.... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++........
(8) 2001
click for larger viewAfter black played ...-gxf4 ( not the best )
instead to reply with the plausible and good exf4, I chosed a more spectacular (but a little weaker) xf4... 
click for larger viewAfter ...-0-0; f6ch.-xf6; xf6-g7; ef1-... Black blundered with ...-e7; 
click for larger viewHere: xd6 win
click for larger view...xd6; xd6-xd6; xe5ch.-f6; xd6-f7; xc5...
click for larger viewHere a mixture of relax and lack of determination by my side, was facing a strong fighting mode showed by the Black... The result was another 30 moves (!) before I forced my opponent to resign. I found very amusing a comment made by my opp. during the post-game analysis: "Of course I was under pression here; but (after ...e7) I tought my position wasnt so bad.... but your xd6 killed me... U took THREE(!) pawns with one move!!..." Very nice...:-D
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++........
