 | | Honza Cervenka: 8...c5 was not good as the weak pawn on d5 caused big problems to black. 8...c6 is usual. 13...Qa5 was a mistake but after 13...Nb6 14.Nf4 the weakness of d-pawn would have been decisive too. Lilienthal's attack was quick and deadly. |

 | | An Englishman: Good Evening: Well, Lilienthal didn't quite make it to a century, but this is a nice tribute to the man. Will this week be devoted to his best games? |

 | | al wazir: 16...Bxg5 would have held out longer. After 17. Rxg5 Nf6, white has a two-♙ advantage but no mating threat. |

May-10-10 | | whiteshark: What a powerful play. |

May-10-10 | | Travis Bickle: Great game by Lilienthal! |
|
May-10-10 | | Eisenheim: since my wife made me walk her through this forced mate - I will post the obvious. 20... kxg8, 21 Qg6+ Kf8 22 rh8#. Sometimes it is so in your face (like my wife observing me typing this) that its easy to miss. |
|
May-10-10 | | Chessmensch: 13...Qa5 was an absolute Patzer move. In fact, other aspects of black's play were amateurish. Seems odd from someone with her credentials. As black, she couldn't be doing a simul (inconsistent with Lilienthat as her opponent, anyway). Did they do rapids in that day? |

 | | pean: A right tibute to Lilienthal: Lilienthal vs Capablanca, Hastings 1935 |
|
May-10-10 | | gtgloner: Was Lilienthal a member of the Vera Club? (obviously not after this game!) |

May-10-10 | | kevin86: Black can take the rook and be mated by ♕ and ♗-or take the bishop and be mated by ♕ and ♖. |

You are white, drag and drop the move you want to make. Enjoy winning from two Pawns up - if you can. |

May-10-10 | | ROO.BOOKAROO: A refreshing change from the hopsy-turvy razzle-dazzle of the Morphy-Schrufer game. |
