Oct-11-24 A Ornstein vs Forintos, 1981 
| |
| Swedish Logician: It seems to me that the playing strength of certain IM:s in Ornstein's generation (or before) was higher than that of many GM:s today. |

May-24-23 Portisch vs A Foguelman, 1964
| |
| Swedish Logician: The fine play of Portisch brought this classic Bronstein game to mind.

Apr-29-22 Unzicker vs Tal, 1975
| |
| Swedish Logician: I just saw the names of the players, but did not take notice of what colour they played. When I reached 24 R x f7 I thought:
Typical Tal! and was flabbergasted to learn that the colours were the opposite. |

| Swedish Logician: <key.pusher> looking back at earlier posts, I now, embarrassingly enough, discover an earlier post by MYSELF Dec-15-16, where I had found out about the Indiana connection. The COVID pandemic must have impaired my memory. |

| |
| Swedish Logician: This reminded me of another Swedish classic.
A Sundin vs Erik Andersson, 1964 |

Mar-08-21 N Sabbag vs C de Holanda, 1992
| |
| Swedish Logician: The final part of this game plays like a Volga/Benko Gambit, where for some unfathomable reason White's King has landed on the Queenside. |

Nov-07-20 Yagupov vs A Rustemov, 1995
| |
| Swedish Logician: I considered the possibility that "26" was a typo for "16" , but that hardly made sense either, since, by a long shot, the move 16. Rxe6 was not Very Difficult to find, and hence not of the Saturday puzzle kind. |
