Feb-23-11 K Salbu vs K Ozols, 1936    Auguste: why 33... Rxf1?, 33... Ra2+ and 34... Rxf1 is definitely much better.      Dec-22-10 Z Franco Ocampos vs A Alawieh, 1992    Auguste: 21. Re6 is spectacular, but i don't think it is better than 21. Rg4.      Dec-17-10 K Hulak vs D Barlov, 1987    Auguste: 29. e6 Rxe6 30. Rxe6 fxe6 31. Qd4 Qf8 (31... Qxd7 32. Qxd7 Bd5 33. Qe7 white can easily draw) 32. Kxg2      Dec-03-10 Y Xu vs A Ushenina, 2006    Auguste: 24. Rc3 is sort of forced, because black is threatening Qc2+ and then Qc1+. after black's queen move like 24... Qb5, 25. Rxd7 is easy to find.      Dec-01-10 G Wainwright vs Blackburne, 1906    Auguste: 27. Rxf6! a) 27... gxf6 28. Bxf6+ Bg7 29. Rxg7 mate in xxx b) 27... Qxf6 28. Bxf6 great material loss c) 27... Qxe3 28. Rxf8+ Rxf8 29. Bxg7+ Kg8 30. Ba1 mate in xxx d) 27... Qb8 28. Rf7! mate in xxx clearly, black has no reasonable defense.      Nov-25-10 T H Piper vs L Benima, 1883    Auguste: 37... Qxb3 is clearly blunder. However, 37...Nf7 38. Bxf7+ Kxf7 39. Qf4+ and 40. Na5 still gives white favorable position.      Nov-23-10 Y Hou vs J Terao, 2010    Auguste: 22.Nxh7 Rd6(preventing Qxg6 or Nf6+) 23. Ng5 Rf6 24. Qh4(threatening Qh7) Bh8 25. Be4 Rd8 26. Bxd5+ Rxd5 27. Rxf6 Bxf6 28. Qe4 black's g-pawn will fall, and white can easily block black's e-pawn by Ne4. after trading the queens, white's extra pawns on king side will be decisive.      Nov-21-10 V Akhmadeev vs A Aleksandrov, 2008    Auguste: 86. a8=Q is obvious but will not work because 86... Qg1+ 87. Kh3 Qh1+ 88. Kg4 Qh4+ 89. Kf5 Qf4+#. white has to clear the route of escape for his king. thus 86. Qe7! Kh6 (86... Kg6 87.Qe4+) 87. a8=Q now, 87... Qg1+ 88. Kh3 Qh1+ 89. Kg4 Qh4+ 90. Kf5 Qf4+ 91. Ke6 with an extra queen, ...      Nov-20-10 A Ardeleanu vs J Halasi, 2007    Auguste: 27. Nxf7 will not work. one possible line is 27... Kxf7 28. Qf4+ Nf6! 29. Rxb7! Qxb7 30. Qxd6 Qxb3 31. Ra7+ Kg8 32. Rxg7+ Kxg7 33. Qc7+ Kg8 34. Bxf6 Qb1+! 35. Kh2 Qb8. is white winning? i don't think so.      Nov-19-10 Y Wan vs S Abu Sufian, 2009    Auguste: All I can say is that I won't play 24. Rh7+ OTB. As a puzzle, 24. Rh7+ is quite obvious though.
