Jul-11-25 Tarrasch vs G Marco, 1892   butilikefur: Whoa wait a second..I remember seeing this whole game as an opening variation in Common Sense in Chess. It was just one line Lasker mentioned although I remember it didn't feel so much like calculation... that's so funny it was an actual game!      May-09-23 Botvinnik vs Smyslov, 1954    butilikefur: the game is nuts...but the comment section is more hilarious!      May-04-23 Gufeld vs Tal, 1956   butilikefur: Yeah..that a4 was cute from Tal..if Qa8-a4 then Qe4-g2 becomes unstoppable..and bxa4 will permit c4-c3.      Apr-25-23 Aronian vs R Jumabayev, 2018   butilikefur: I think <35. Bf8+ Rxf8> might be a problem since <36. Rd8 Qa3> is bothersome after <37. c8=Q Rxd8 38. Qc7+ Kh6> (Kg8 39. Qxd8+) <39. Qf4+ Kg7 40. Rc7+ Kg8> seems to safely avoid all checks. Also, I had trouble finishing things after <35. Bf8+ Kf7 36. ...      Sep-23-22 Aronian vs B Adhiban, 2021   butilikefur: Lol !      Sep-24-21 Sax vs J Gallagher, 1999    butilikefur: White to play is nice. Anyhow... The only chance is 26...♘c5 27. ♗xf6 (maybe 27. c3 but I think 27...♕a2 28. ♔c1 ♕xb3 with ♖a1 and ♕xb2 coming) 27...♕a2 28. ♔c1 ♘xb3 29. cxb3 ♖fc8 30. ♔d2 ♕xb2 and now      Jan-03-21 Tal vs Velimirovic, 1977   butilikefur: i don't think it can be <43. gxf7+ ♔xf7 44. ♗h5+ ♔f8 45. ♖c8+ ♔e7 46. ♕e4+?> because of 46...♕e5 or ...♗e5. I think you have to get rid of the bishop first with <46. ♕h7+ ♗g7 47. ♖e8+ ♔d7> ...      Jan-17-20 R Kuijf vs Anand, 1990   butilikefur: <sea7kenp> White still has 25. Qd1. After this is a cool tactic to finish things: 25...Rxg2+ 26. Kxg2 (26. Kh1 Rxh2+ 27. Kg1 Rg8+ 28. Bg5 Rxg5+ 29. Nxg5 Qh1+ mate) 26...Rg8+ 27. Kh1 Be4 (27...Qxd1 28. Rxd1 Be4 allows 29. Rxd6 cxd6 30. h4) 28. Qxd5 Bxd5 and 29...Bxf3+ will ...      Nov-14-18 R Sadhwani vs Anand, 2018   butilikefur: I don't get 33. c5... after that Anand walked right over him      Mar-19-18 Lutikov vs Tal, 1955    butilikefur: <pikoro><Cyphelium>: Hey guys. After <24...Qxd2 25. Rxd2> Black might try <25...Rgd6> instead but runs into <26. Ne7+ Kf8 27. Rxd6 Rxd6 28. Nf5> with a hanging rook and Rh8+ mate. Against <25...Rxg4 26. Ne7+ Kf8 27. Rxd8+> by ...      Mar-12-18 Grischuk vs J Polgar, 2007    Feb-03-18 Uhlmann vs Anand, 1990     Jan-24-18 Carlsen vs So, 2018     Dec-09-17 A Samsonkin vs Nakamura, 2009     Apr-20-17 K Podzielny vs G Diez, 2007     Jul-18-15 Karpov vs Tal, 1976     Nov-08-12 L B Hansen vs Adams, 1995     Aug-13-11 Sasikiran vs V Laznicka, 2011     Jul-20-11 Vasiukov vs Van Wely, 2002     May-07-11 R Nizam vs G Nemes, 2007     Mar-06-11 Siciarz vs Glogowski, 1976     Dec-11-10 Capablanca vs Marshall, 1918     Sep-25-10 A Kogan vs W Arencibia Rodriguez, 2002     Aug-05-10 Caruana vs C Majer, 2007     Jul-04-10 Leko vs Ivanchuk, 2008     Jun-27-10 F Olafsson vs Eliskases, 1960     Jun-20-10 S Polgar vs G Vescovi, 1994     Jun-20-10 O Renet vs G Miralles, 1986    Jun-09-10 O Touzane vs Anand, 2001     May-08-10 D M Ilic vs P Lukacs, 1987     May-03-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010)     Apr-30-10 Lasker vs R Loman, 1903     Apr-25-10 Tal vs D Ciric, 1966    Apr-25-10 Torre vs B Verlinsky, 1925     Apr-17-10 Petrosian vs Gligoric, 1959     Apr-09-10 Englisch vs Gunsberg, 1885     Apr-03-10 Smyslov vs V Malaniuk, 1995     Apr-02-10 Smyslov vs C Kottnauer, 1946     Mar-21-10 Z Izoria vs F K Volkmann, 2003     Mar-01-10 Tal vs Tolush, 1957     Feb-28-10 W N Watson vs D Ciric, 1991     Feb-20-10 S Zhigalko vs D Obolenskikh, 2010     Feb-13-10 V Gashimov vs Grischuk, 2010     Jan-30-10 Ding Liren vs H Ni, 2009     Jan-27-10 Tal vs A Kolarov, 1970     Jan-24-10 Kramnik vs Nakamura, 2010     Jan-23-10 Nakamura vs Shirov, 2010     Jan-23-10 Tiviakov vs Shirov, 2010     Jan-23-10 Krasenkow vs M Markovic, 1990     Jan-19-10 Kupreichik vs Gipslis, 1972     Jan-17-10 Portisch vs de Firmian, 1990     Jan-16-10 Gipslis vs Hracek, 1991     Jan-13-10 U Kavcic vs D Pavasovic, 1998     Jan-09-10 Nunn vs H Pfleger, 1989     Jan-08-10 N Krogius vs N Aratovsky, 1945     Dec-26-09 A Huss vs Lobron, 1985     Dec-22-09 Tal vs Fischer, 1970     Dec-20-09 Nakamura vs I Ibragimov, 2004     Dec-17-09 Carlsen vs McShane, 2009     Dec-15-09 E Gerigk vs H Teske, 2009     Dec-15-09 Reshevsky vs Larsen, 1968     Dec-14-09 Navara vs Svidler, 2006     Dec-12-09 Tartakower vs Vidmar, 1905     Nov-24-09 Petrosian vs Taimanov, 1955     Nov-18-09 Keres vs Verbac, 1933     Nov-13-09 L Milman vs J Fang, 2005     Nov-08-09 Macieja vs Ponomariov, 1997     Nov-07-09 E Gausel vs T Ernst, 1992     Nov-06-09 Tarrasch vs Reti, 1922     Oct-15-09 E Berg vs Leko, 1995     Oct-08-09 R Filguth vs A de la Garza, 1980     Oct-04-09 E Limp vs A Rodriguez Vila, 2001     Oct-02-09 E Berg vs C C Buhr, 2001     Oct-01-09 Spielmann vs Tarrasch, 1912     Sep-12-09 Sakaev vs D Langier, 1992     Aug-07-09 Avrukh vs Rublevsky, 2003     Aug-01-09 D Griffith vs K Hopps, 1982     Jul-31-09 F Handke vs K Bischoff, 2001     Jul-26-09 Dautov vs Krasenkow, 2002     Jul-26-09 Shirov vs Korchnoi, 2004     Jul-24-09 Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1929     Jul-23-09 Tal vs NN, 1975     Jul-19-09 Tal vs E Nievergelt, 1959     Jul-19-09 V Varavin vs V M Kozlov, 2002     Jul-16-09 Smirin vs Kasparov, 1998     Jul-11-09 T Witke vs J Nikolac, 1986     Jul-10-09 Grischuk vs Bareev, 2001     Jul-05-09 D Perovic vs M Cebalo, 1986     Jul-04-09 Adams vs Leko, 1999     Jul-04-09 Korchnoi vs D Solak, 2002     Jun-27-09 Gruenfeld vs J Schenkein, 1915     Jun-21-09 S Zagrebelny vs A Ponyi, 1992     Jun-19-09 T Ernst vs C Gruvaeus, 2000     Jun-14-09 Lagno vs M Ulybin, 2005     Jun-07-09 Leko - Anand Rapid Match (2009)     Jun-06-09 Anand vs Ivanchuk, 1993     Jun-04-09 Geller vs Tal, 1959     May-29-09 A Bykhovsky vs D Oltean, 1990     May-23-09 Y Gonzalez Vidal vs A Abreu Delgado, 2005     May-22-09 M Tauber vs P Bachmayr, 1991     May-17-09 P Nikolic vs Huebner, 1987     May-16-09 H Ree vs Ftacnik, 1978     May-06-09 Saemisch vs F Krautheim, 1946     May-04-09 O Garcia Carey vs J Bellon Lopez, 2001    May-03-09 Kudrin vs R Ignacio, 1986    May-03-09 Chandler vs Kasparov, 1976     May-03-09 O Gavrilov vs S Solovjov, 2005     May-03-09 Z Varga vs Z Gyimesi, 2005     Apr-23-09 Schlechter vs Gunsberg, 1901     Apr-21-09 I Sokolov vs T Middelburg, 2009     Apr-19-09 W Wittmann vs A Rodriguez, 1980     Apr-13-09 V Akopian vs Kramnik, 2004     Apr-12-09 A Volokitin vs Areshchenko, 2001    Apr-12-09 Areshchenko vs A Volokitin, 2004     Apr-11-09 Shirov vs Movsesian, 2005     Mar-28-09 D Ciuksyte vs V Golod, 2003     Mar-27-09 T Fogarasi vs N Medvegy, 2003     Mar-12-09 Kaidanov vs Anand, 1987     Feb-25-09 Short vs Anand, 1992
