Dec-16-12  wordfunph: "After getting a cup of coffee I returned to the board to see whether there might still be winning chances. To my pleasant surprise, Kosashvili, who had plenty of time left for his 40th move, had blundered. How many blunders have been made on move 40?"

- Jan Timman (on 40...Kg6)

  perfidious: Not to mention on move 41, in days of old.
May-03-14  Cushion: That doesn't make any sense. Qxg7+ could have been played on move 39.
May-03-14  Cushion: I get it. If he doesn't play Kg6, then he can meet Qxg7+ with Ke8.
