Jan-14-16 | | talwnbe4: after 25..Rc7 26. Bd1 b5 27. a4 Rg7 28. Bb3 bxa4 29. Bd5 Re7 30. Kg2 a5 SF5 can't find 31. c4 after 11 minutes and using 3 cores of a Core 2 quad 2.4 Ghz.. it suggests 31. Rf2? d=51 1.7 billion nodes |
|
Jan-14-16 | | talwnbe4: talwnbe4: Stockfish 7 fares a bit better, but again is confused by the same kind of position. |
|
Sep-07-16 | | clement41: delightful to watch; reminds me of the unknown crazy promotion game C Lelievre vs M Francois, 2015 |
|
Sep-07-16 | | Delboy: clement41: The unknown game you refer to is a beauty. Thanks for unearthing it. |

Jul-30-17 | | singate: Is there a win after 29...cxb3 30.axb3 a5? If so, I have been unable to find it on a real board or with the computer. Some posts here and on the linked threads indicate white wins in all variations after the queen sac but this line has me stumped. |

Feb-26-18 | | NeverAgain: <singate: Is there a win after 29...cxb3 30.axb3 a5? If so, I have been unable to find it on a real board or with the computer.> The information you are looking for is eight posts up from your post, on the same page even: Y Gusev vs E Auerbach, 1946 (kibitz #144) |

Feb-24-19 | | qqdos: <NeverAgain> I note you have not posted since last September, so I write in the hope that you may spot this message. Like you I feel that computers have a difficulty in unravelling deep positions where zugzwang plays a part in the "solution" perhaps several moves in - as you demonstrated above. Have you thought of running your slide-rule over #6 of Carlsen vs Caruana, 2018 where Sesse did manage to find the beautiful "forced" mate in 3 dozen or so moves based on Zugzwang motifs - 68...Bh4!! Perhaps, at the same time, Mr.Sesse might like to take a look at this game. All the best. |
|
Feb-28-20 | | SkySports: Do we know anything about the black player (Auerbach)?
On some other dabases he's reported as Averbakh (the famous GM?)... |

Sep-16-20 | | Chesgambit: black should exchange pawns after that sacrfice his Queen a5 is blunder cxb3 best Bxc4 is blunder a4 wins
Stockfish says d=91 Qa3 best after Qxe5 fxe5 Rf1 white is winning |

Dec-15-20 | | Chesgambit: if white exchange rook with c4 and f1 (after b5)
he can win a4 strong a6 Ba2 then a5 b4 Rf7 Rg7 Rc7 Rxc4 Bxc4 zugzwang |

Feb-22-21 | | gabriel112000: This should be the Immortal Zugzwang Game instead of Saemisch vs Nimzowitsch, 1923 as this is a much better demonstration of zugzwang. |
|
Feb-24-21 | | Chesgambit: in my variation white can force zugzwang with bishop pair |
|
Mar-04-21 | | Chesgambit: @neveragain I find better variation than axb5 a5! It forces zugzwang after exchange f1 rook for c4 rook |
|
May-13-21 | | makinavaja: Both players are still alive, and are 99! |
|
May-14-21 | | SkySports: <Both players are still alive, and are 99!> I strongly doubt it. It's more likely that being them not so famous, their death date is not known. [Please note that the black player is not the famous GM Yuri Averbakh] |
|
May-23-21 | | makinavaja: May be you are right, SkySports... Thanks. |
|
May-23-21 | | macer75: SkySports: <<Both players are still alive, and are 99!> I strongly doubt it. It's more likely that being them not so famous, their death date is not known.> Sad! |

 | | GrahamClayton: The Molniya ('Lightning') Sporting Society was established by the trade union of communication workers. In 1950 it was taken over by Burevestnik. For many years the player of the Black pieces was believed to be Yuri Averbakh. |
