Nov-01-22 D Russell Wada
| |
| JohnBoy: Russ went from 1600 to 2300 in about six months ~1977. And ever the nicest guy. I only played him once. Drawn but tricky endgame I managed to screw up and lost. |

| |
| JohnBoy: Here is what got me stuck: 23.Rxh6 Qxh6 24.Nf6+ Qxf6 25.Bxf6 gf6 & how does white win this? Black can break the pin on f7 w -Be6 almost certainly at the cost of another pawn, but has a lot of material to confuse the white efforts. |

May-02-22 Tal vs B Dudley, 1964
| |
| JohnBoy: As lauded by <AylerKupp> & <perf>, both this and Tal vs J Miller, 1988 are astounding. Whooping out stuff like this in a simul melts my hard drive. I run out of exclamations. |
