cyclon has kibitzed 588 times to chessgames   [more...]

May-08-14 Levenfish vs M Yudovich Sr., 1933    cyclon: 28. Rxg7+ Rxg7 ( 28. -Bxg7 29. Qxf5+ Ke7 30. Rxe6+. On 28. -Kxg7 or 28. -Nxg7 comes simply 29. Qxf6X ) 29. Qxf6+ Kg8 30. Rxe6 and if -Q- somewhere, follows 31. Re8+ mating, or trying to prolong the anguish slightly by 30. -Qxe6 31. Qxe6+ - White wins anyway.      Apr-26-14 Bologan vs T Luther, 2007    cyclon: My careless 26. -Qe6? was an oversight due to 27. Rxe5 where Black loses his advantage instead of an ACCURATE game-move 26. -Qf7! By the way, what chips might suggest after crazy 26. -Nf5, or even 26. -Qxc2? Or are they just plain stupid? Post most welcome!      Apr-18-14 J Sieglen vs K Wesseln, 1989    cyclon: Almost, but not quite. I missed this peculiar game-line consisting about the defence 34. Rf3 and now White threatens 35. Qxg5+ ( this move is what I missed at first). Interesting is that Black still wins. As a consequence, naturally I missed 35. -Nxf3!! too. Cufflinks for Black!      Mar-20-14 V Knorre vs G Neumann, 1864    cyclon: 23. Bxe5 Bxe5 24. Rxe5 Qxe5 25. Rd8+ and White wins a piece in either -25. -Rxd8 26. Qxe5, or -25. -Ka7 26. Qxe5 Rxe5 27. Rxg8.      Mar-12-14 Tal vs Petrosian, 1974    cyclon: I'd suggest forcing enough-line: 22. Rxd7 Bxd7 ( practically only move; 22. -Qxd7 23. Qh4 mates - other moves are equally useless ) 23. Bxf7+ Rxf7 ( 23. -Kh8 24. Qh4+ mates ) 24. Qxf7+ Kh8 25. Re7 ( 25. Qxg6 Bf5 ) and it's a curfew.      Dec-30-13 P Maletin vs D Bocharov, 2013    cyclon: 48. -Qh3+.      Dec-24-13 Portisch vs Kavalek, 1981    cyclon: 28. Rg6.      Dec-18-13 J Nykopp vs P Manne, 1981    cyclon: At least one line gives White a winning advantage, namely ; 26. Bxe4 and if 26. -Rxe4, follows 27. Qh8+ Kb7 ( 27. -Kd7 28. Rxf7+ etc., or 27. -Qc8 28. Rxb8+ ) 28. Rxb8+ wins.      Dec-05-13 E Gilfer vs G A Thomas, 1933    cyclon: My line may not win, though. Game-line is better - 44. d6!.      Sep-19-13 Kholmov vs Tal, 1963    cyclon: One slight add concerning the White's Queen control over g5-square; if White plays ( 40. -Re5 ) 41. Qd8+ Kh7 42. gxf3, Black ignores BOTH -42. -Qxh3+ and -42. -Qxf3+, but plays -42. -Re2 instead after which mate is unstoppable.
