May-15-20 Botvinnik vs Tal, 1961 
| |
| RookLifter: Played through all Tal games from his first in the database until this one. And this was the first in which he gives a kind of squeamish impression... Backing and defending appearantly planeless instead of trying to complicate and mount poisonous attacks |

Apr-13-20 Tal vs S Wintr, 1960
| |
| RookLifter: Wow, a Tal game without any kibitzing! Not often he played the king’s gambit but still a nice game. Saccing a bishop for a deadly attack... |

Jan-03-20 Bagirov vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1961
| |
| RookLifter: <saffuna> Yes but not as fast and brilliant. For ex 35...Nf2+ 36. Qxf2 Rxf2 37. Rxf2+ Bf6 leaves black with a one piece (bishop) advantage which should provide a winning end game even if white will likely take also the h pawn... |

Jan-03-20 R Nezhmetdinov vs A Elizarov, 1964
| |
| RookLifter: Ok, thnx for the enlightment! So just a 15 moves variation then, I obviously need to improve my analytical skills... Or else invest in the option to press the engine button. |

Dec-29-19 R Nezhmetdinov vs A Bannik, 1957
| |
| RookLifter: Threatens 35. Qxd6 with a decisive attack. If 34...Qb8 then 35. f6 Bh8 36. Rg3 (or 35. f6 Bxf6 36. Rf3). Nice game! |

Nov-26-19 M Lauberte vs Tal, 1953
| |
| RookLifter: White blunders by playing 23.Nf3(?) to kick the black queen away but the knight becomes directly the victim after 23. ...Qg3. With a knight up and a strong central passed pawn it was a ’walk in the park’ win for Tal. |

Nov-24-19 Tal vs R Skuja, 1952
| |
| RookLifter: <RKnight: And 41...Nc6 doesn't save the day because of 42 Rc7.> Or simply 42 Bxc6... |
