Mar-05-18 | | areknames: 37..Qe4+ to force the King into the corner followed by an almost compulsory Q sac followed by your trustworthy back rank mate. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | ChessHigherCat: Check'm & Wreck'm |
|
Mar-05-18 | | tjshann: Monday, and this time a delayed Queen sac. First Qe4+, then the Q sac leading to mate by Rook |
|
Mar-05-18 | | SuperPatzer77: 1...Qe4+!, 2. Ka1 Qe1+, 3. Nxe1 Rxe1# |
|
Mar-05-18 | | saturn2: Qe4 followed by back rank mate |
|
Mar-05-18 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: The queen -- Lady Macbeth -- nudges the king into disaster. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | lost in space: I love Mondays!
37...Qe4+ 38. Ka1 (only move) Qe1+ 39. Nxe1 (only move) Rxe1# Most complicated was to find out that it is black to move. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | Gregor Samsa Mendel: 37 Rxh7 was a horrible blunder, especially for a correspondence game. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | saturn2: White's kingside attack looked impressive but black defended well. |
|

 | | gawain: This is terrific. The immediate...Qe1+ does not work but if Black begins with 37...Qe4+ White is helpless. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | stst: An Installment Loan, need 2 stages to finish:
37........Qe4+
38.Ka1 (only sq.) Qe1+ again
39.NxQ but then RxN# as the K smothers himself, too deep to get out. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | agb2002: Black has a bishop for a knight and a pawn.
White threatens Rxe7.
Black wins with 37... Qe4+ 38.Ka1 Qe1+ 39.Nxe1 Rxe1#. The direct sacrifice 37.. Qe1+ would work if Black's c-pawn were on c4. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | AlicesKnight: Not too hard once you see the ....e4 check first. Somebody please explain why not 34....Nxh4. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | Boerboel Guy: <Gregor Samsa Mendel: 37 Rxh7 was a horrible blunder, especially for a correspondence game.>
Exactly! and in fact 37 gxh7+! wins for White... |
|

 | | perfidious: Most likely, the score has a typo and White's 34th move was Qh3 instead. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | gofer: This is a <correspondence game> and white played <37 Rxh7??> That is really bizarre!
<37 gxh7+ ...>
37 ... Kf8
38 h8=Q+ Kf7
39 Qh7+ Kf8
40 Qxf4+ mating
37 ... Kg7
38 h8=Q+ Rxh8 (Kf7 Qxf4+ mating)
39 Qf7+ Kxh6
40 Qf6+ +-
37 ... Kf7
38 Qxf4+ Kg7
39 h8=Q+ Rxh8
39 Rxh8 Kxh8
40 Qe5+ +-
<37 ... Kh8>
<38 Qxf4 ...>
White is winning this at a canter. How does someone miss the mating
threat (after <37 Rxh7??>) during a correspondence game?! |
|
Mar-05-18 | | goodevans: <34...Nf8??>, <35.Bxh7+??>, <36...Qe7??>, <37.Rxh7??>. Practically all of the last few moves before the finale were outright blunders. I can only imagine that both players were in severe time trouble! ;o) |
|
Mar-05-18 | | gofer: <perfidious:> You must be right! It's a really good explanation for the difficulties that white was facing at <37 ...?> and explains everything! |
|
Mar-05-18 | | SpamIAm: <goodevans>, they must have FedExed all of their last five moves. ;) |
|
Mar-05-18 | | morfishine: First <37...Qe4+> forces the White King into the corner, then <38...Qe1+> forces mate ***** |
|
Mar-05-18 | | malt: Starting with 37...Qe4+ 38.Ka1 Qe1+ 39.N:e1 R:e1# <Check'm & Wreck'm> 37.gh7+ would be better for White |
|
Mar-05-18 | | zb2cr: Mate in three, forced. 37. ... Qe4+; 38. Ka1, Qe1+; 39. Nxe1, Rxe1#. |
|
Mar-05-18 | | sorokahdeen: Ditto on the previous comments re: "Correspondence? Really?" Let me add: "That wasn't blitz? Are you sure?!" |
