May-17-22 Hecht vs Suttles, 1969 
| |
| Honey Blend: White still had counterplay with 55. ♘f6 ♗xg2 56. ♘g4+ ♔g6 57. ♘f2, which defends h3 and g4. [DIAGRAM] Should be sufficient to hold the pawn storm off. |

May-16-22 M Yilmaz vs Nepomniachtchi, 2013
| |
| Honey Blend: 16. ♘e4 ♖xb2 17. ♖fc1 ♖xe2 18. ♘xc6 looks more favorable for White at the cost of a pawn. |

May-05-22 G Kool vs Polgar, 1987
| |
| Honey Blend: One interesting line that I failed to add to 34. ♗e1 ♗c4 35. ♔h2 ♕xf1 36. ♕f8+ ♔h5 37. ♕e7 is how 37. ... ♔g4 does not help the king escape: [DIAGRAM] 38. ♕e4+ ♔h5 39. ♕f4 and now the defense h6 is not available ... |

May-04-22 A Feneridis vs E Frost, 1968
| |
| Honey Blend: <pretty much forced from both sides> I may be wrong with '<led> to complications' when what I meant was '<asking> for complications.' Let's start with what would happen if 22. ... ♕e5 was played first. ... ♕xg5+ and ♕xh2+ has to be addressed. ... |

Apr-29-22 N Huschenbeth vs K Bischoff, 2018
| |
| Honey Blend: In hindsight, 18. ... ♖hd8 followed by ... ♔f8 would have made a better defense, unless of course White falls for 19. ♕xg7? ♖g8. |
|

|
Apr-27-22 P Papp vs M Lomineishvili, 2010
| |
| Honey Blend: One could speculate the reason why 15. ... ♗xd4 was missed is because on 16. ♖xd4 ♕xb5 17. fxg7 Black might have overlooked that Qxg5+ delivers check. If it didn't, being spooked by an imaginary 18. gxh8# in that line would have looked scary. |

Apr-22-22 Harikrishna vs Nisipeanu, 2004
| |
| Honey Blend: <Hairy Peanut>?? What was that supposed to mean? |
|

|
Apr-16-22 Hartston vs E Larrain Cadiz, 1966
| |
| Honey Blend: My first instinct points me to 19. ♖hf1, threatening ♕f7+, piling up on e6 or perhaps ideas of ♕xg7/h7 and pushing the passed pawns on the kingside: [DIAGRAM] 19. ... ♖f8 is met by 20. ♕h5+ g6 21. ♕xh7 while dodging with 19. ... ♔d8 ... |
|
|
|
Apr-14-22 B Lengyel vs N A Adams, 2006
| |
| Honey Blend: 47. ... ♖e3+ seems to be a great way to move the rook away from the threat of fxe8=♕ with tempo. If White declines, e.g. 48. ♔g2 ♘f4+ 49. ♔g1 ♗xh7 or 48. ♔h2 ♖h3+ 49. ♖xh3 ♔g7 neither of which work well. 48. ♗xe3 ... |

| |
| Honey Blend: At the very least, not another <safety pin>. |
