Oct-13-06 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)    Alkaff: what do you think guys about 18.RfD1 ?      Dec-05-04 E Terpugov vs Petrosian, 1957    Alkaff: Ok guys since I am the first one here who suggested 26... d4 I suggest here 27 Bc4 as reply instead of 27.Qe4 so if 27 Qb4 Bb3 or 27 Qxc4 Ba3 and I think white is saved      Nov-15-04 Browne vs B Wall, 1975    Alkaff: I think 28 Re4 is better. Do you agree?      Oct-31-04 R Vokroj vs A Postl, 2000    Alkaff: weirdoid: I think 23... Nxf3+ is better than 23... Qxc1 because white can reply with 24 Rxd4 as shown above. But after 23... Nxf3+ 24 kg2 Qxc1 Black will force the line played in the game and there is no chance for 24 Rxd4      Oct-30-04 J Barle vs I Jelen, 1979    Alkaff: Nice puzzle! I have solved it after 3-4 Minutes. I tried Nh4+ first but after that I discovered the Rook blocking Idea, and after quick comparing between Qh1+ and Rf1+ I got it!      Oct-29-04 I Balanel vs A Pytlakowski, 1951    Alkaff: Dear Nulfinator: It threats 24 ...Bxg2+ and then mate if 25 Kg1 then Bxf3+. So white either play:- 24 Rg1 Nf2# or 24.gXh3 Qg1+ 25.Rxg1 Nf2# or 24 Bxe4 Bxg2+ 25 Kg1 (Bxg2 Qxg2#) Bxe4# or g3 (Best line) giving the exchange to Black as shown in above posts!      Oct-28-04 Larsen vs Najdorf, 1968    Alkaff: Holden: I predicted the same solution for the first while, but after I knew the text solution, I recognized my error.
