Nov-26-16 Karjakin vs Carlsen, 2016

| dernier thylacine: The situation will be more pleasant in the last game for Carlsen than for his opponent; and if draw again in game twelve, I think Carlsen will still keep the better chances for the end of the match.. |

| dernier thylacine: Is it not won for White by playing 52.Rb1?... Anyway, defending now seems to become very difficult for Black... |

Oct-25-16 Blackburne vs Lipke, 1898
| |
dernier thylacine: Even a move later, 58...Bf6 instead of 58..Kc7?, preventing endless chess would still be enough to win for Black;
other reasonable try: simply 58..Qxc2 and if 59.Qb7+ Kd6 60.Cxf5+ Kc5  ... |

Oct-09-14 H Czarnowski vs G Neumann, 1867
| |
| dernier thylacine: Its seems to me that Czarnowski could still win a wonderful endgame by 67.Ng6!! instead of the miscalculation of 67.Ne6? (the trap was too easy to see for a very strong master like Neumann), but I have still to check all the possibilities... |

| dernier thylacine: I am just an "amateur" and I do not know the competition chess community, but I am very happy that exists at least and at last a good and complete book about the La Bourdonnais -Mc Donnell encounters, the one of Cary Utterberg of course; and as Utterberg included ... |

| dernier thylacine: OFFRAMP:
I could not understand what you do not or do not want to understand. For me, even I am a Frenchman whose english is poor, it did not need three minutes before I undestood the com. of EdZelli. So what?

Sep-27-14 Staunton vs Horwitz, 1846
| |
| dernier thylacine: What a pity, ELROCH!
Because Horwitz was specially famous for his endgames technique, so he could create one of his jewels here, but lost this opportunity!! |
