Nov-04-16 | | YouRang: <swclark25: <YouRang> how do you get updated board position displays in your comments?> I use a PGN viewer to load the game moves (via copy/paste). The viewer lets me move through the game, enter other variations, and at any time copy the current position to the clipboard (as a FEN string), which I can then paste into my post. The PGN viewer I use is called Arena (it's free). |

Nov-04-16 | | mel gibson: I didn't see it but I didn't spend more than 20 seconds looking at it.
The solution is such a quite little move
but brilliant to hold the white squares
with the White Queen & then go in for a huge attack. |

I meant a quiet move - LOL.

 | | corneliussulla: the mistake is in the opening!!!!!!
10.Nc2 then black moves the knight AGAIN! |

 | | perfidious: Black took the Robert Ciaffone maxim <if you want a man to hang himself, leave some slack in the rope> too far. |
|
May-19-21 | | Brenin: Once again the first move 36 Bh6+ is obvious, allowing 37 Qg8 (if Black takes the bait with 36 ... Kxh6) or 37 Qf7 (if Black declines with 36 ... Kh8), both threatening 38 Qxh7+ Kg5 39 Qg6#. In fact, 27 Qf7 also wins (though less quickly) after 36 ... Kxh6, e.g. 37 ... Bg7 38 g4 hxg4 39 Bxg4 Bh8 40 Rb3 Ra3 41 Rxa3 Qxa3 42 Qxe8. |

May-19-21 | | awfulhangover: Everybody can spot 36. Bh6+ within seconds, but took me time to find 38. Qg8! Calculated 38. Qf7, but wasn´t convinced. Well, it works fine, but the comp´s line is too sofisticated for most humans. |
|
May-19-21 | | Whitehat1963: Clever tactic that yields a more direct route! Hadn’t even looked in that direction. |
|
May-19-21 | | 1g1yy: How disappointing... Subtleties... I had about 3 ideas, all of which won material and position, but weren't a home run. For whatever reason I had Qf7 in my mind, and that line failed if Bg7 blocking the queens path to take h7. Never occurred to me Qg8 solves that. :D |

|
May-19-21 | | AlicesKnight: Found the gameline (37.Qg8 much better than Qf7). Black seemed oblivious of what was coming. A nice contrast in the activity of Bishops between White and Black. |
|
May-19-21 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: From this starting point, I probably would have played 36 Qc7 over the board, at least if I noticed that 36 ... Rd8 fails to 37 Bxb6. That doesn't win as quickly as the game line, but it demolishes Black even so. |
|
May-19-21 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: You know, this game could be an example in Larry Evans' New Ideas In Chess. White establishes a bit space advantage, and when Black painfully maneuvers to whittle it down, White winds up having converted it into a "time" advantage for a mating attack. |
|
May-19-21 | | TheaN: For once I spotted <36.Bh6+ Kxh6 (Kh8 37.Qf7 Re7 38.dxe7 with 39.Qxh7#) 37.Qg8! Re7 38.dxe7> in its entirety. Okay, there I stopped claiming a win, missing the nice finish 38....Qe8 (else 38.Qxh7+ with 39.Qg6#) 39.exf8Q+ Qxf8 40.Qxf8 Kg8 41.Qg7#. <corneliussulla: any of 3 moves win--Qg7 Qe2 so the position is completely unsound> Not sure what this is supposed to be. 36.Qf7+? Kxf7 -+ outright throws the queen for nothing, if you mean 37.Qf7 +12 then yes, but Qg8 #6 is just better and leaves Black without defense. Qe2 is the opposite, good on move 36, not on 37: 36.Qe2 ± yields a better position for White but not out yet after 36....Bxe4! reinforcing some weaknesses. 37.Qe2 Bxe4 -+ is dead lost. When you post criticism like this at least post it clearly. Here, I think the key is the mating combination, not necessarily getting a better position, which White already had. |
|
May-19-21 | | Brenin: <1g1yy>: Don't be too hard on yourself: after 36 Bh6+ Kxh6, 37 Qf7 isn't refuted by 37 ... Bg7, it still wins but not by a quick mate: 38 g4 threatens 39 Qxh5#, so Black must play 38 ... hxg4, and then 39 Bxg4 renews the threat, forcing 39 ... Bh8 (giving Black's K an escape to g7). Now 40 Rb3, threatening 41 Rh3#, forces 40 ... Ra3, so 41 Rxa3 Qxa3 42 Qh5+ Kg7 43 Qxe8 wins the exchange, and leaves White with a huge positional advantage, including a passed P on d6 after Qxd7+. |
|
May-19-21 | | Once: There's an echo of Monday's POTD. Again we see a lone king trying to patrol two entry squares. This time it is g8 and f7. 36. Bh6+ forces the black king to move and let the white queen in. |

 | | corneliussulla: any of 3 moves win--Qf7 ,Qg8 after Bxh6 /Qe2 immediately also wins
this is to clarify my first post-the glaring error at move10 by black leads to inevitable loss . Re8 keeps it even |
|
May-19-21 | | 1g1yy: <Brenin: Don't be too hard on yourself: > I just have to chuckle at myself a little bit. The more I feel like I'm getting better at calculating these things, the more I see combinations that I haven't calculated correctly. It's what makes the game fun I guess. I have a problem with tunnel vision that I think I need to work on some. I look at the correct piece and even the correct direction but I often times don't look at landing on the correct Square. I know, that's why people have different rating levels. But there are times when I feel like I'm really close to seeing all this stuff and other times where oh, I know I have a long way to go. |
