Nov-22-18 H Wang vs R Gerber, 2016 
| |
| GlassCow: I used the engine on chess.com to analyze it. It's essentially even after 17. Qg5, and 17.. Qc7 begins a series of moves that leaves black way behind. 26. Qxg6 is seen as the strongest move, and the very weird looking 26.. Bf5 holds out for at least a little bit. Basically, there ... |

Mar-17-13 Karpov vs Timman, 1979
| |
| GlassCow: Neat position after black's 24th. Timman's position looks like utter chaos and Karpov's looks tidy and orderly. Especially like the aesthetics of the knights and bishops in the position. |

Feb-07-09 Pillsbury vs Showalter, 1896

| GlassCow: 18. Nxd7? seems horrible to me, exchanging dominant knight for sickly bishop. Showalter's position was already so bad that it didn't much matter, however. |

| |
| GlassCow: 17 Qd4 was a clunker. either Nf5 or Nxc8 preserved the initiative and kept winawer in defense mode. |

Jul-15-08 Shirov vs Granda Zuniga, 1997
| |
| GlassCow: Couldn't Julian have put it on ice by trading the exchange ..67 Rxe3 and ..68 gxf3 leaving him with the outside passed pawn? |

| |
| GlassCow: ... Bb3 looks pretty devestating in any case, time trouble or not. |
