takchess: I saw this move in a few seconds compared to yesterday which was much harder for me. The Petrosian game which <PB> linked to is subtle. I never would of seen his move in a game. I need to study that one.

takchess: Despite 14..kg6 and it murkiness,not playing bxh7+ would be a crime against chess. Then again, thinking like this has kept me at a low rating all these years (while having fun). 8)

takchess: In yesterday's puzzle of the day, <Sneaky> kindly commented on the use of this sites SJKbase Java viewer and the ability to move the pieces around. In playing around with it, I also learned it has a Quiz mode (click on the Question Mark). This is very cool as it hides the ...
