Dec-23-08 A Bisguier vs Bronstein, 1955    Fourpointo: The only game in the database with the American Attack. This should be the game of the day on July 4th or something.      Feb-22-08 Kramnik vs Kasparov, 2000    Fourpointo: I thought 22. Ne8 would be better. It directly threatens mate Qf8 and Qxg7, and taking with either the knight or rook results in a forced mate.      Feb-10-08 von Gottschall vs J Berger, 1887    Fourpointo: "White to play 32...?" at least deserves a Tuesday puzzle.      Feb-09-08 W Harrelson vs Kasparov, 1999    Fourpointo: <<Why do we say "cheers!",when we drink booze?> In ye olden days, one would have given "three cheers to..." whoever had bought the latest round of drinks. It has become merely "cheers" over the years.> <<kevin86>, why do we say "cheers" before having a drink?      Feb-05-08 S Tatai vs M Lazic, 2001    Fourpointo: Somebody is going to have to explain to me 9. Nb1...      Jan-26-08 Carlsen vs N Ibraev, 2004    Fourpointo: <Ne4 is not possible because Bxe4.> Who said anything about Ne4? I'm talking 17. Qh7.      Jan-26-08 P Gutierrez Castillo vs S Paridar, 2005    Fourpointo: Why not 18. c4 ? It appears to win the rook.      Jan-14-08 T Lanchava vs W Spoelman, 2005    Fourpointo: Pretty unusual that the obvious trade of material ends up being the solution to a puzzle, instead of a sacrifice or other precautionary move.      Dec-29-07 H Seidman vs W Shipman, 1946    Fourpointo: <There's something even simpler than that, and than the one in the text. 38. Ra7! threatening Qg8# and Qxc8 at the same time.> Qg8 wouldn't be a mate because of Bf8.      Dec-02-07 R Masiyazi vs S Namangale, 2005   Fourpointo: White plays the endgame perfectly.      Nov-26-07 Kasparov vs Karpov, 1990     Nov-09-07 A Bannik vs Bronstein, 1958     Nov-06-07 Short vs Timman, 1991     Oct-15-07 Znosko-Borovsky vs Salwe, 1907     Oct-07-07 Kibitzer's Café     Sep-29-07 Capablanca vs Maroczy, 1926     Sep-26-07 A Kosten vs Adorjan, 1988     Sep-23-07 J Polgar vs L Verat, 1988     Sep-10-07 V Rothuis vs F Olafsson, 2007     Aug-30-07 S Polgar vs Jansa, 1991     Aug-14-07 Barnett vs Eastwood, 1949     Aug-05-07 V Buturin vs Kholmov, 1989    Aug-05-07 M Michna vs A Zhigalko, 2005     Jul-23-07 Morphy vs Worrall, 1858     Jun-27-07 O Sarapu vs R Baeyertz, 1954     Jun-27-07 R Gruchacz vs E Schiller, 1970    Jun-27-07 E Schallopp vs J Metger, 1877    Jun-20-07 J Mieses vs Janowski, 1901     Jun-19-07 R Michell vs Menchik, 1928    Jun-18-07 NN vs Steinitz, 1873     Jun-18-07 Zukertort vs J Noa, 1882     Jun-09-07 A Baburin vs Adianto, 1993     Jun-02-07 Vaganian vs Taimanov, 1974     Jun-01-07 Zukertort vs G MacDonnell, 1872    May-29-07 M M Ivanov vs G Hertneck, 1998     May-18-07 Anderssen vs Dufresne, 1852     May-16-07 G van Doesburgh vs C Sammelius, 1946    May-15-07 Bareev vs G Timoscenko, 1986     May-14-07 A Anastasian vs Tiviakov, 1999     May-12-07 Averbakh vs Bondarevsky, 1948     May-11-07 M Heidenfeld vs I Miladinovic, 2001    May-07-07 Edinburgh CC vs London, 1824     Apr-30-07 D Byrne vs G Katz, 1946     Apr-23-07 NN vs Greco, 1620     Apr-23-07 Greco vs NN, 1620     Apr-23-07 Greco vs NN, 1620     Apr-23-07 J Holzwarth vs A Csank, 1890     Apr-18-07 Miles vs S Arkhipov, 1993
