Dec-19-18 | | saturn2: I saw 37...Qf3+
38..Nxf3 Nd3# but overlooked
38..Kxe1 Rh1+ 39. Rg1 Rxg1# |
|
Dec-19-18 | | Walter Glattke: Option: 37.Nc3+ 38.Nxc3 Qf3+ 39.Kxd1 Rh1+ 40.Rg1 Rxg1# |
|
Dec-19-18 | | Walter Glattke: Sorry, mistake, no Nc3. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | cocker: Could have started a move or two earlier. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | malt: Gone for 37...Nd3+ 38.N:d3 Qf3+ 39.K:e1 Rh1+ 40.Rg1 R:g1# |
|
Dec-19-18 | | saturn2: <malt> White has 38 Rxd3. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | AlicesKnight: After a little thought (most of my thoughts are puny), 37....Qf3+. If the N takes, ....Nd3# - if 38.Kxd1 then ...Rh1+ followed by mate. Let's see - yes. A nice concept; I wonder how far ahead ED saw it. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | Walter Glattke: Option with Nd3 still shown by malt. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | malt: <saturn2> White has 38 Rxd3.
Yes I had
38.R:d3 Re2+ 39.K:e2 Q:g2+ 40.Kd1 Rh1+
41.Qe1 R:e1+ 42.K:e1 B:e4 |
|
Dec-19-18 | | thegoodanarchist: Got it! And what a beautiful finish it was.
In fact, one might say that the finish was enDearing. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | saturn2: good analysis <malt> |
|
Dec-19-18 | | malt: <saturn2> Thanks. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | whiteshark: Deadly double check (ddc) |
|
Dec-19-18
 | | doubledrooks: What <agb2002> said. |
|
Dec-19-18
 | | Jimfromprovidence: FWIW 37...Ne4+ works as well. In fact there is a very nice puzzle after 37... Ne4+ 38 Kxe1. click for larger viewBlack to play and win. |

 | | Penguincw: Ah, there's the queen sac I've been looking for all week. |
|
Dec-19-18
 | | Domdaniel: Not too difficult as a puzzle, but what a beautiful mate! It almost eclipses the Queen sac that tees it up. |
|
Dec-19-18
 | | Jimfromprovidence: 37...Rhe3 also deserves a solid look.
 click for larger viewBlack threatens 38...Ne4#, so is it curtains for white in this position? |
|
Dec-19-18
 | | Domdaniel: The game may be far from flawless, but the final mating pattern is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | Whitehat1963: Couldn’t find the right sequence. |
|
Dec-19-18 | | PJs Studio: That’s kinda nasty |
|
Dec-20-18 | | KingsideBishop: Sorry to say I missed this one!
It is a fairly simple mating pattern; I’ve got some work to do!I went down a totally more complicated, less productive and drawing at best 37. ...Nd3+ line. |
|
Dec-20-18 | | areknames: <The game may be far from flawless, but the final mating pattern is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen.> Indeed. Lovely game to play through though. |
|
Dec-20-18 | | areknames: White's attack on the K side is way too optimistic and gets adequately punished by his opponent's amassment of pieces in the centre. Very instructive. |
|
Dec-20-18
 | | Richard Taylor: Yes. The Q sac and the double check mate is great. Edward Dearing wrote a book on the Nimzo-Indian which I used about 2009 on. It and other things helped my rating to improve at the time. Dearing writes well in it. It was published by Everyman in 2005. |
