May-30-21 Pillsbury vs J Mason, 1895   NM JRousselle: 18... Rc7 is an instructive mistake. The best move was Nd7.      May-19-21 L Christiansen vs Shirov, 1991   NM JRousselle: 28... Ra2 looks to be winning for Black.      May-14-21 Philidor vs NN, 1790   NM JRousselle: The sacrifice at move 22 is not sound. Black's best defense looks to be 22 Rxg6+ fxg6 23 Qxg6+ Qg7 24 Qxe6+ Kh8. How does White hold the e pawn? Black appears to be winning in this line.      May-12-21 Marshall vs S Bernstein, 1941   NM JRousselle: Marshall could have gained a significant advantage with 17 d5. However, Marshall did not like closed positions. Perhaps his opponent knew this.      May-08-21 Karjakin vs Anand, 2006    NM JRousselle: Rxa3 followed by a series of knight checks should do the trick after 27 Rxd6      May-06-21 Janowski vs Showalter, 1899   NM JRousselle: These guys did not like to resign, but 3 pieces for a rook...      Apr-26-21 Mitkov vs Kurajica, 2002    NM JRousselle: I have had games against fellow masters that continued to play in dead lost positions (and I was not in time trouble).      Apr-20-21 Menchik vs Tartakower, 1932    NM JRousselle: What is interesting is how the player with the 2 bishops has all the chances. It would appear they were playing for 2 possible results (draw, Black win).      Apr-20-21 Zsofia Polgar vs A Rabczewski, 1989    NM JRousselle: I can't tell you how many times I tell students to look for unprotected pieces.      Apr-19-21 Kiriakov vs A Greenfeld, 2017    NM JRousselle: Be4 is certainly the best move. However, even the simple Rxe7 wins.
