Aug-01-13 S Erenburg vs E Inarkiev, 2003
|
Rookheight: Cool game from GM Erenburg!
Despite some clever tactics to avoid losing material by Inarkiev, black's knight and rook become completely trapped on the h-file |

Nov-26-10 O Almeida Quintana vs P Zarnicki, 2002 
|
Rookheight: It took me a while to see that 20...Nf8 allows 21.Bb6! winning the exchange by deflecting the queen off of e7, and skewering the Q+R if the bishop is not taken. |

Rookheight: 36...Qf6?? has got to cause a 2525 to lose some sleep. |

Apr-28-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010) 
|
Rookheight: I feel like I'm awaiting an April Fools' joke, with cringing anticipation to whatever nonsense statement Danailov is going to make in the next day or two to try to upset Anand's mental equilibrium... |

|
Rookheight: nice "random game" to come across! 19.Nd5 is very pretty, leaving the queen hanging because of Nf4# and the rook hanging because of deadly discoveries. |
