   Rookheight has kibitzed 9 times to chessgames  
   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
 
   Apr-06-12 A Savina vs K Arunima, 2011
 
Rookheight: very nice mate and display of tactics.
 
   Nov-26-10 O Almeida Quintana vs P Zarnicki, 2002 (replies)
 
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.
 
   Jul-21-10 Lasker vs Randolph, 1907 (replies)
 
Rookheight: 41.Qd4+ f6 42.Rxh7+! Kxh7 43.Qh4# very nice :)
 
   Jul-02-10 C Kottnauer vs M J Franklin, 1956
 
Rookheight: 28.Bd6 is cute, and seems to win the exchange in an unusual way.
 
   Jun-28-10 D Reinderman vs C S Matamoros Franco, 2008 (replies)
 
Rookheight: 36...Qf6?? has got to cause a 2525 to lose some sleep.
 
   Apr-28-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010) (replies)
 
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...
 
   Apr-12-10 A Stripunsky vs E Santarius, 2010 (replies)
 
Rookheight: 38.Nd4! very pretty.
 
   Feb-08-10 M Shabelsky vs Chigorin, 1885
 
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.
