| jefflissa: 31...Bd3 looks pretty strong. ....an obvious typo. I bet it should be 31 Qe3. |

Jan-23-17 Mecking vs J Vilela, 1965
| |
| jefflissa: 30. Kg2 looks stronger. 30. Kh6 Ra5 as in the game but white picks the a or c pawn. |

Nov-25-16 S Kupka vs J Lechtynsky, 1967
| |

Jan-23-16 V Komliakov vs Savon, 1996
| |
| jefflissa: 1-0 ?? I realize black is a little tied up but there has to be another explanation. Time? Maybe Savon's cell phone rang. f6, Nf8/e6? |

Dec-17-15 Jobava vs Saric, 2015
| |
| jefflissa: lakshashishu: What if 15...Bxg3 16.hxg3 c6 was played? 17 Bc4+ Kh8 18 Rh7+ Kh7 19 Rh1 Nh4 20 Rh4 ++. 17 Bc4 Rf7 18 Rde1 isn't fun for black. |

Oct-11-12 A Liang vs L Kaufman, 2012
| |
| jefflissa: According to Larry K.'s bio he received the GM title for winning the 2008 Senior Open. Whatever happened to GM norms and a minimum rating of 2500? I mean no disrespect but c'mon man!! |

Oct-04-10 Sveshnikov vs E Ubilava, 1984
| |
| jefflissa: Isn't 23. Qf7+ Kd7 24.Nc4 with Ne5 and Ng6 even better? Both sources that I've checked have the same move order. |
