   Dec-02-24 Kotov vs Botvinnik, 1939 (replies)
 
eblunt: < TheaN:> to be fair 37 Qf2 is a blunder, could have fought on a bit better, though the position is bleak
 
   Oct-10-23 E Romanov vs A Graf, 2007 (replies)
 
eblunt: I may be being stupid, but I thought it was a 'pin' not a skewer in this case. I thought a pin is when the piece is in front of the king, and a skewer was when it is behind the king (and exposed by a check when the king has to move )
 
   Oct-09-23 I Bilek vs M Santo-Roman, 1985 (replies)
 
eblunt: I had ♗xc6 as per <ajayb>. I don't see any good reply for black that doesn't lose several pieces or get mated. OTB I'd play this as I don't have to see a complicated multi-move mate ( in which I might have overlooked something ). ♗xc6 is a simple "remove the ...
 
   Sep-21-23 P Johner vs F D Rosebault, 1910 (replies)
 
eblunt: <TheaN:> Totally agree, 3 easy to see moves and white is 2 pieces up and the queens off the board, and black has no attack going anywhere. I'd play this like a shot.
 
   Jul-21-23 Lombardy vs Polugaevsky, 1978
 
eblunt: What I find interesting about this is that the white queen plays no part in this. The other 3 white major pieces rip apart a 5 piece black defence with having to bother to get the white queen out of bed.
 
   Jul-07-23 Panov vs Taimanov, 1952 (replies)
 
eblunt: <ajk68: I'm surprised by 53. Qxe5+. It's a bit inaccurate> Maybe, but I'd go for a huge simplification like that always. I could win from that postion against anyone.
 
   Jun-03-23 M Yilmaz vs Wojtaszek, 2021 (replies)
 
eblunt: Yes , because the winning sequence is forced. Bh4 sort of gave it away for black.
 
   May-05-23 E Ghaem Maghami vs R Bancod, 2004 (replies)
 
eblunt: The first two moves scream out really - lose a knight to take out blacks 2 centre pawns and promote white's DS Bishop to be a monster, with a nice threat to Black's rook as a bonus. I would play that OTB like a shot. Whatever Black replies with, the pressure on g7 is unbearable.
 
   Apr-13-23 Navara vs Hracek, 1998 (replies)
 
eblunt: <mayankk> or 18...Bg4 wins the Queen as well
 
   Feb-20-23 J Szmetan vs Quinteros, 1972 (replies)
 
eblunt: Went for the Q grab. TBH on the board I would always do that - a safe win straight away without risking miscalculating a mating pattern
