| Kay Sadeeya: There is no way that was a medium puzzle (I found it way too easy) and Monday's was "very easy". Unless my brain is wired wrong.?. |

Aug-05-20 Steinitz vs W Bolt, 1865 
| |
| Kay Sadeeya: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Bolt was running in 1865, particularly through Ireland. |

Apr-30-20 E Yakushina vs E Mokshanova, 2019
| |
| Kay Sadeeya: Even me, not a real chess player, knew something was very dangerous with white advancing all her pawns, seemingly without a solid plan of attack, and leaving the king vulnerable. |

Apr-01-20 Keene vs E J Holt, 1971
| |
| Kay Sadeeya: Around move 59 I looked at the total moves and thought, "I'm not going to keep looking at this game it's probably going to end in a dud". But wow I'm glad I finished going through to the end, what a finish! |

Mar-28-20 J Ragan vs Benko, 1974
| |
| Kay Sadeeya: I don't usually comment, as my expertise is pretty nil, but it seems to me white was concentrating his attack on blacks Q-side, while he was being bombarded K-side. When I watched it the second time, knowing the results, I thought, "what are you thinking"? But I think it was too |
