Jul-02-22 E Lundin vs A Asgeirsson, 1936
| |
| YoungEd: At first glance, I thought White's queen-side castling was his real big mistake. But really, White's 3rd, 4th, and 5th moves were all pretty bad, and by move 9 he was already strapped to find good developing moves. |

| |
| YoungEd: Cute final position. Mason saw one move further than Lee did. |

| YoungEd: Lots of draws in high-level correspondence, I guess! |

Jun-01-22 F Rhine vs NN, 2018 
| |
| YoungEd: One pretty thing about the mating move is that it's crucial for the white K to cover the c2 square! Worth the missed 11. Bf4 for such a splendid finale. Nice work, <FSR>! |

May-27-22 H Rost vs J Roscher, 1989
| |
| YoungEd: From's Gambit is pretty much okay for Black, I think, and in the reversed version, the additional Nc3 for White is useful. Agreed with Mr. Clayton--one shouldn't have missed 10 Rh7 in a correspondence game. |

| |
| YoungEd: I HATE it when that happens! |

May-20-22 G Schnitzler vs C W Vitzthum von Eckstaedt, 1864
| |
| YoungEd: Stockfish likes Black's 23...Ne5; I probably would have gobbled up the rook, perhaps to my detriment. |

May-20-22 Tseshkovsky vs V Malaniuk, 2002
| |
| YoungEd: This game looks fishy indeed. Incorrect game score? Collusion? Hard to explain 4...c6 otherwise! |

| |
| YoungEd: Wow, thanks, <whiteshark>! Very kind of you. |

May-19-22 Hebden vs M Basman, 1981
| |
| YoungEd: I think White should have aimed to trade off and get rid of Black's dark-square bishop somewhere from move 13 tomove 16. That thing ends up being a monster! |
