Sep-07-11 Timman vs A Pomar, 1977 
|
Mr.Snuffles: Nf5 forces black to open lines for the rook to mate. It doesn't matter what black does, after he takes the knight Rxh7 and Rh8# will follow.
Simple but pretty. |

Jan-28-10 Shirov vs Kramnik, 2010 
|
Mr.Snuffles: <Absentee> Kramnik gave us a lot of surprises in this tournament, including very interesting sacrifical possibilities in the opening. I wouldn't be surprised if he played for something very dynamic this time, although i also think a petroff would be wiser. |

Mr.Snuffles: <achieve>:<Well now, Mr Snuffles, - you sure are sticking your nose out there...
Great Username BTW :-D>
I'm always following these live games, but for the first time i had something substantial to say.
Now... I hope Carlsen doesn't lose his way under time ... |

|
Mr.Snuffles: <WhiteRook48>
Probably yes. But we have to remember that the longer the game lasts kasparov would have fewer opponents, so who knows what would happen? |
