Aug-17-07 The World vs G Timmerman, 2007 
|
andrews: A little off topic, but not too far...

Aug-02-07 Dreev vs L Dominguez Perez, 2005 
|
andrews: Got it quickly. I saw the double rook sacrifice, and I saw that if black doesn't take the second rook, white can win the queen. I didn't look/see any further than that. |
