| Jan-14-06 | | Larsker: <chessgames.com: English speakers can't be expected to type, for example, "Hübner" on their keyboards.> True. But in all fairness, some of them actually manage to understand the rules of chess. |

About the game, nice fork! |
|
| Oct-03-06 | | johnnyfroaction: Deepblade- the fork is not nice in fact it loses, check the first comment on here. |

 | | FSR: They Both played a Spate of weak moves. :-) What kind of world championship was this? |
|
| Jan-22-09 | | Karpova: <FSR>
The German Women's Championship |
|
| Jan-23-09 | | whiteshark: Finally Both armies lost heavily. |
|
| May-26-09 | | WhiteRook48: Both of them missed it! |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | Brenin: Excellent pun ("it" being 40 Kc1 Nxd5 41 g7+). |

 | | OhioChessFan: Very good pun. |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | nalinw: I was wondering what Black missed .... bring lazy I checked with the engine - it turns out exchanging Queens instead of going for the fork is much better .... so yes BOTH missed the fact the the fork was actually losing ... very good pun |

 | | sorso: how is this a win for black |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | goodevans: <nalinw: [...] I checked with the engine - it turns out exchanging Queens instead of going for the fork is much better...> 'Much better' in the engine's point of view but clearly losing whereas playing the fork won her the game so isn't that 'much better'? |

 | | perfidious: <FSR: They Both played a Spate of weak moves....> One might say that, yaas. |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | Messiah: I am already accustomed to bad puns and horrific games, but this one is somewhere on a completely different level. |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | goodevans: The SF annotations that have appeared since this morning give <39...Qxd5+ 40.cxd5 Ng3 41.Rxg3 fxg3 42.Rg1 Kg7 43.Rxg3 ± +1.57 (19 ply)>. We've seen time and again that SF evaluations with so few plies can't be trusted. Whilst +1.57 represents a healthy lead it isn't a nailed down win. I think White's position is better than that and after <39...Qxd5+ 40.cxd5 Ng3> I see no great imperative for White to sac the exchange. <41.Rh4> (so that 41...Kg7 can be met by 42.Rg4) looks much stronger. |

 | | Teyss: Excellent pun because Spate (or Späte or whatever) missed 39...Qxd5+ 40.cxd5 Ng3 as <goodevans> said, blocking the g column. White is better but after 41.Rh4 Kg7 42.Rg4 still as some work to do because the BK blocks the WPs. And Both missed 40.K moves Nxd5 41.g7+ with a new Q and attack on the BK. Should be part of a game collection "Resigning in a winning position". Does it already exist? |

|
Nov-12-21
| | FSR: <sorso> It's only a win for Black because White resigned. If not for that little detail, White is winning. |
|
| Nov-12-21 | | goodevans: <Teyss>, <FSR>, I'll be checking out that game collection some time soon when I get a chance. Blunders can be great fun if you're not the perpetrator! Here's a few more: Game Collection: find the worst move |

| | Teyss: <FSR> <goodevans> Many thanks for the games. I had seen the timkr page before but had no clue how to search for collections on CG.
Will go through them with delight, there is something philosophical about these cock-ups, between "We are all mortal" and "I'm not the only one to blunder". Cheers. |
