Jul-22-05  Resignation Trap: Botvinnik: "Sicilian! - Boleslavsky Variation. His opponent played naively and quickly got into trouble. Very accurate and energetic play by 'Br'."
Oct-15-05  suenteus po 147: The position after 42.Rd2 would make a cute Monday puzzle.

  chessgames.com: It is a nice combination, but unfortunately we wouldn't use this as a puzzle, because Black is already up a knight. It could be argued that even quiet moves are winning.
Oct-15-05  suenteus po 147: <chessgames.com> I see your point. Ah well, c'est la vie.
Oct-15-05  aw1988: <chessgames> There have been puzzled where other moves could also win.
