Jul-27-17 | | whiteshark: There seems little likelihood of the <Tiger> ending up as a bedside rug. |
|
Jul-27-17 | | whiteshark: Noteworthy <accumulation square e6>:
11.Nxe6 / 19.Rxe6 / 21.Be6+ |

Aug-05-19 | | areknames: A beautiful attacking and highly instructive game that shows why pawn grabbing in the opening is not a good idea. In the final position I'm not quite sure how White mates if Black plays 27...Ka3 (or Kxb3). A safe reply would be 28.Qxd7 and then go after the King. |

Sep-29-20 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: Given that this game is all about a king hunt, I propose calling it Persson of Interest. |
|
Sep-29-20 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: Hah. I can't submit that pun. Somebody beat me to the idea! |

 | | perfidious: That player name fairly screams for puns--the most difficult chore is coming up with something which displays some originality, a Sisyphean task I leave to others with far more imagination than I possess. |

As Whiteshark noted back in 2017 and recently mentioned on the ECF there were three sacrifices on e6. So something awful like 'Tiger e's sick' (e's sick...e6...gedditt?) I've been waiting for Tiger Persson to play the Caro Kann so we can use a Shere Khan pun (Jungle Book). He has faced it a few times on here. https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... |

 | | perfidious: <Geoff>, on replaying this attacking effort, for some reason Shabalov vs Benjamin, 1993 came to mind. |

 | | Sally Simpson: Hi Perfidious,
This game with three piece sacs on g7 has also been mentioned P Dubinin vs D Petrov, 1936 |

Dec-14-24 | | mel gibson: I chose the same ply as the game.
Stockfish 17 chose a different ply:
19. Qxh7+
(19. Qxh7+ (1.Qxh7+ Bg7 2.Bxe6+ Nxe6 3.Rxe6 Qd4+ 4.Kg2 Kxe6 5.Qxg6+ Bf6 6.Re1+
Kd6 7.bxc3 Qc4 8.Bxf6 Kc7 9.Re7 Rd8 10.g4 d4 11.Bxd4 Qd5 12.Qf7 Qxf7
13.Rxf7 Bd5 14.Rf5 Bxa2 ) +1.76/46 167)
score for White +1.76 depth 46.
If I force SF to choose the game ply it's losing: 19. Rxe6
.. Nxe6 (19. .. Nxe6 (1. ... Nxe6 2.Qxh7+ Ng7 3.Be6+ Kxe6 4.Qxg6+ Nf6
5.Bxf6 Kd7 6.Bxg7 Bc5+ 7.Kh1 cxb2 8.Qf7+ Kc6 9.Rb1 Bd4 10.Qg6+ Kb5 11.Qd3+
Kc5 12.Bxd4+ Qxd4 13.Qc2+ Kb6 14.Rxb2+ Ka7 ) +2.81/44 330) score for Black +2.81 depth 44. |

 | | scormus: <mel> Good to see my candidate came into the frame.
I wasn't sure between 19 Qxh7+ and Rxe6. The first looked like the natural move, but I couldn't see how W could force the win. The second choice looked promising, but does W run out of active pieces? The key point came after 22 Qg6+ when the BK went on a suicide mission into enemy territory. B was enough ahead on material to be able to give some back and still keep an advantage, with only the WQ and to worry about in the short term. |

Dec-14-24 | | mel gibson: <The second choice looked promising, but does W run out of active pieces? The key point came after 22 Qg6+ when the BK went on a suicide mission into enemy territory.> Yes - the key move.
22. Qxg6+ Ke5 - actual game.
should have been
22. Qxg6+ Nf6
23. Bxf6 Kd7
Black has to give up the Knight to get an escape square to d7 and then wins the game
in that Stockfish line. |

Dec-14-24 | | vajeer: I went with 19. Q�h7+ as well. Good to see that is the correct move from Mel's SF analysis. However, I can't take full credit as I was stumped by 22...Qd4+ defence. Didn't realize how strong Qg6+ threat is and white can calmly play 23. Kg2 |
