May-06-11 R Nizam vs G Nemes, 2007 
| |
| TCS: <Once> After 23. Bxh7+ Kxh7 24. Qh5+ Kg8 25. Qxf7+ Kh8 - exactly how do we continue the attack? <JFP> has given us one approach, but it only works for 25...Kh7. If black plays 25...Kh8, the white queen doesn't get to g6 with check. Actually we can still force Kh7 after 23. ... |

| |
| TCS: <Once> I suggest you will/have (I don't have the work of Dr. Dan Streetmentioner to hand) invented a time machine but whispered the idea in the ear of H.G. Wells who unfortunately also missed your point! |

| TCS: Another line to consider is that after:
56.Nh5 c2 57. Nf4 Kb3 58.Ne2 Kd2
white has:

May-10-10 Morphy vs Schrufer, 1859
| |
| TCS: <Once> I know you've written articles for "Chess", but have you considered putting together your various 'unplugged' analysis into book form. The basic format of a pattern and then example positions (such as you have done above) would be of great benefit. Perhaps you have already ... |

May-06-10 Anand vs Topalov, 2010
| |
| TCS: <Nigel Short> "Homage to Catalonia" - referencing another battle in this Spanish War! I wonder if Anand is recuperated after "Coming Up for Air"! |

Dec-10-09 D Howell vs Carlsen, 2009
| |
| TCS: Around move 40 after the mistake by Howell during time pressure I wrote 'A shame for Howell who battled well'. The rest of the game was a brilliant example of 'glorious grinding'. |

Sep-15-09 J Krejcik vs Reti, 1922
| |
| TCS: <johnlspouge: I suspect your analysis is maturing, but if you want to blame it on "intuition", feel free> Interesting point about 'maturing analysis' and 'blaming' intuition. While I ordered my question on classical lines i.e. rational v intuition, I wouldn't want to imply the ... |
