Aug-13-12 S Pencil vs G Goltsoff, 1976    dragon player: A new change this week, last week I gave up quite early. 13.Qxh7+ Kxh7 14.Rh3+ Qh5 15.Rxh5# Time to check. ------------ Yes, right. And a nice story by <Once>.      Aug-06-12 C Ward vs A Summerscale, 1996    dragon player: This one is really easy: 18.Qxf8+ Kxf8 19.Rd8# Time to check. ----------- Right 1/1      Aug-02-12 Polgar vs N Gaprindashvili, 1990    dragon player: When I saw this I thought why not 31...Bxc6+, but than I saw it was defended. Than I saw the solution: 31...Rc3! 32.bxc3 Bxc6+ now it's no longer defended. 33.Kg1 Rg8+ 34.Kf2 Rg2+ winning the queen. Maybe there's a mate, but I don't care. Time to check. ...      Aug-01-12 de Firmian vs A Rustemov, 1999    dragon player: I considerded only one move when I saw this puzzle: 31...Bxg2 32.Kxg2 If 32.Qxg2 Rd2, winning the queen. 32...Rd2+ 33.Kg3 Qg1+ 34.Kf4 If 34.Kf3 Qxg5 34...Rf1# Time to check. --------------- In the game black prefered to not take the bisshop and gave a shower of ...      Jul-31-12 Simagin vs Kholmov, 1966    dragon player: This puzzle is a contains a really nice mate: 44...Ng4+! 45.hxg4 Rh6+ 46.Kg1 Rd1# Time to check. ----------- Yes, white foresaw it and resigned. 2/2      Jul-30-12 L Ootes vs K Yamada, 2011    dragon player: It's monday, so a queen sac: 30.Qxg7+ Rxg7 31.Rxg7+ Kh8 32.Rh7# Time to check. -------------- Yes right, and it's a game from Holland. Always nice.      Jul-27-12 Geller vs Dorfman, 1976    dragon player: A strange puzzle today. Black's bisshop is hanging, but taking it doesn't work. I've looked at it for a while now, and I don't see anything else than this: 33.Nh8 Bxf2+ 34.Kh1! Now black has trouble defending the rook, his queen can't do this. 34...Kxh8 35.Qxf7 and ...      Jul-26-12 E Hermansson vs S Cicak, 2006    dragon player: When I saw this puzzle, I thought it would be white to move, since he is a lot more active. But than I saw it was black to move, and white's activity is going to be in underdoing: 16...e5! 17.Bxe5 Nc6 18.Qc3 Nxe5 19.Qxe5 Qxc4 and black's a piece up. Time to check. ...      Jul-25-12 Sanahuja vs Fernandez, 1983    dragon player: Strange puzzle today. There's no obvious winner. This move is nice, but I'm not so sure about it: 7.Nxc7 Rb8 hang on, I spotted something: 8.Bg5! Qxg5 9.Ne6+ winning the queen. Time to check. ------------------ That was a quite short game, but it was black's own ...      Jul-24-12 Short vs A Muir, 2004    dragon player: This puzzle contains some nice sacs: 35.Qxh7+ Nxh7 36.Rxh7+ Kxh7 37.Rh1+ Bh4 38.Rxh4# Time to check. -------------- yes, right. 2/2      Jul-23-12 E Sigurdarson vs H Ragnarsson, 2011     Jul-22-12 The World vs V Akobian, 2012     Jul-13-12 J Curdo vs J Fried, 1993     Jul-12-12 I Theodorovich vs H Ridout, 1976     Jul-11-12 A Karpatchev vs R Oney, 2006     Jul-10-12 V Hamitevici vs S R Mannion, 2010     Jul-09-12 Karpov vs Geller, 1983     Jul-05-12 A Reshko vs O Kaminsky, 1972     Jul-04-12 D Fidlow vs A Maier, 1959     Jul-04-12 R Ziatdinov vs Mikhalevski, 2005     Jul-02-12 J Garcia Padron vs J Bellon Lopez, 1990     Jun-23-12 Romanishin vs Marjanovic, 1972     Jun-22-12 P Moran Santamaria vs E Franco Raymundo, 1955     Jun-20-12 Tal vs R Mascarinas, 1981     Jun-19-12 Santasiere vs E B Adams, 1926     Jun-18-12 Andersson vs W Hartston, 1973     Jun-16-12 M Piskur vs B Klein, 2012     Jun-15-12 Tal vs Y Rantanen, 1979     Jun-13-12 Sutovsky vs Smirin, 2002     Jun-13-12 D Tomic vs F Winzbeck, 1993     Jun-11-12 R Ashley vs R Morton, 1980     Jun-08-12 M Beinoras vs H Salo, 2009     Jun-07-12 E Paehtz vs M Mueller-Seps, 2004     Jun-06-12 M Pestalozzi vs D Duhm, 1900     Jun-05-12 S Sery vs Z Vecsey, 1921     Jun-01-12 B Vladimirov vs Z Doda, 1967     May-31-12 Leko vs Anand, 2001     May-30-12 Kasparov vs Bacrot, 2000     May-29-12 G Burgess vs W N Watson, 1989     May-28-12 V Greenwalt vs B Wall, 1983     May-28-12 Khalifman vs E Ermenkov, 1994     May-27-12 J Barle vs I Jelen, 1979     May-25-12 A Ivanov vs A Vitolinsh, 1979     May-24-12 Zukertort vs Englisch, 1883     May-23-12 J Nogueiras vs M Gongora, 2001     May-22-12 F Kraus vs V Costin, 1913     May-21-12 Benjamin vs N Gamboa, 1995     May-19-12 G Barbero vs U Rueetschi, 1987    May-17-12 Alekhine vs K Opocensky, 1943     May-16-12 C T Goering vs E Schallopp, 1877     May-15-12 Polugaevsky vs J Eising, 1974     May-14-12 Anand vs F Vallejo Pons, 2004     May-11-12 Kasparov vs Karpov, 1985     May-10-12 Kramnik vs Anand, 2008     May-09-12 Tal vs Botvinnik, 1961     May-08-12 Steinitz vs Chigorin, 1892     May-04-12 Gelfand vs Salov, 1996     May-03-12 Lautier vs Gelfand, 1999     May-02-12 Gavrikov vs Gelfand, 1995    Apr-30-12 Gelfand vs M Ulybin, 1985     Apr-25-12 Tal vs Benko, 1964     Apr-24-12 Khismatullin vs J Zhou, 2012     Apr-23-12 Wemmers vs Metger, 1877     Apr-17-12 F N Stephenson vs J Penrose, 1968     Apr-16-12 R A Dowden vs W Petch, 1982     Apr-15-12 Huebner vs A S Segal, 1969     Apr-15-12 J Kaplan vs Bronstein, 1975     Apr-13-12 Duras vs E Cohn, 1911     Apr-12-12 A Mikhalchishin vs Shirov, 1988     Apr-11-12 Bacrot vs E Relange, 2006     Apr-10-12 R S Hoff vs N Whitaker, 1916     Apr-09-12 U Bajarani vs D Solak, 2010     Apr-05-12 J D Thornton vs L Sanchez, 2012     Apr-03-12 M Bartel vs Krasenkow, 2010     Apr-02-12 Polgar vs P Chilingirova, 1988     Apr-01-12 McShane vs H Ni, 2005     Apr-01-12 A Alavkin vs V Diu, 2002    Mar-30-12 R Garcia vs J Rubinetti, 1972     Mar-30-12 J Whitehead vs P Biyiasas, 1977     Mar-28-12 C Randlov vs D Flynn, 2012     Mar-27-12 G Fontein vs Euwe, 1939     Mar-26-12 Lasker vs St. E M Sala, 1901     Mar-25-12 Short vs Miles, 1984     Mar-24-12 Smyslov vs Tolush, 1961     Mar-23-12 Bogoljubov vs G A Thomas, 1922     Mar-23-12 A Rakhmanov vs Y Ginzburg, 2010     Mar-21-12 Chigorin vs Gossip, 1889     Mar-20-12 S Evans-Quek vs I Cheparinov, 2004     Mar-19-12 K O'Brien vs D Salter, 2008     Mar-18-12 A Karklins vs A Sandrin, 1990     Mar-16-12 V Liberzon vs I Radulov, 1968     Mar-15-12 W Reichenbach vs H Pfleger, 1960     Mar-14-12 N Miezis vs Navara, 2011     Mar-13-12 F Englund vs Janowski, 1913     Mar-12-12 P Ricardi vs G Milos, 2001     Mar-11-12 Keene vs Miles, 1976     Mar-10-12 Najdorf vs L Frenkel, 1926     Mar-09-12 Radjabov vs Karjakin, 2012     Mar-09-12 Gligoric vs C Pritchett, 1967     Mar-07-12 S Zaksaite vs T Chistiakova, 2001     Mar-06-12 Vidmar vs D Przepiorka, 1906     Mar-05-12 Keene vs R Calvo, 1968
