MOTTOS: I have always believed in ...[never give up] ...[never surrender] ... [If smashed down, stand up and go back to fight]
(in fact many of my lost games ended by checkmate),
...But now, after a life's experience, i think too [Better be lucky than good] #########################################

click for larger view-+ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++....... (3) Few years ago, after an easy and very stupid blunder in the opening i found myself in this totally lost position: 
click for larger viewA whole pawn for nothing and a very bad mens placement.... Just a little before to resign I tried a last desperate trick: ♙g5 
click for larger viewAnd now if black take with the H pawn... game over. But probably he thought (as i hoped): <"...Why to allows white to resolve the problem of the ugly placed rook in h1?!... and why to put in h8 (after the rooks change) the well central placed rook?!..."> so he played: ...-♙fxg5, giving to me the chanche to equalize with: ♖xh6 
click for larger viewAfter:...-♕f4; (of course he cant play ♖x♖ cause ♘g5ch.) ♖xh8-♖xh8; i took ♘xd5-... and he cant play ...♖d8 cause ♘xg5ch.(again!) win. (analysis diagram )
click for larger viewAfter the game's moves:...♕xd2; ♖xd2-♙g4; ♘g5ch (again!) I won the finale:.... 
click for larger viewAfter my ♖xd2 the opponent realized that even now Rd8 cant be played, cause ♘g5ch. (again!).... ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger view♘g5ch was a real nightmare move for my opponent in this game... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.......... (4) Played in 2004
click for larger viewOf course white (I) is already much better here, but I like the final shoot... ♖d5
click for larger viewhere, worried by the lots of treaths, my opponent blundered with:...♗g7 and resigned after ♕h7ch. 1-0 ... cause after the only ...♔f7; ♖f1 is check mate... 
click for larger view...♗xc3; doesent change a lot... ♙xc3-♕g7; ♗xe6ch. ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger view++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++..... (5) Played in 1993
click for larger viewHere I played....-♗xh3;
click for larger view♗e2-♖g3;
click for larger view♔g2-♖xg2ch.
click for larger view♔xh3-♖xf2;
click for larger viewNow Black have a deadly Queen check in e3, White is forced to do something against it... ♗g4-... and after ...♖xb2 valutation is -+
click for larger viewUnfortunatly, after the Queens and rooks trade, in a W's♗+♙ VS. B's♙♙♙♙♙ (!) Finale, in a terrible zeitnot i wasnt able to find the (easy) winnig manouvre.... 0.5-0.5
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...... (6) Played in 1990 (Wow!... Im so Old?!?!!) :(-D Ok, was one of my first ever tournament....
click for larger viewI played ...-♘f3ch.; thinking of: ♙xf3-♕xh3; ♙f4-♕g4ch; ♔f1-♕f3; -+ ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewBut after ♔f1 delused by the refusion of my "brilliant" sac, in this better position with a pawn up I accepted (sic!) the draw that, with an almost unheardable whisper, my more expert opponent offered.... 
click for larger view0.5-0.5
eeeehhhhhh!.... the younghood, the younghood..... so manx energy and power, but such a lack of experience... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++....... (7) Played in 2001
click for larger viewHere I played ...-♘xg3
click for larger viewThis move was in my mind already from a while, in case white had played ♙f4. But when this move was made it, a long thought happened to me.... Simply I was worried about White's reply ♔xg3.... In fact after. ...-♖xe3ch.; ♖xe3-♗xf4ch.; ♔f2-♗xe3ch.; ♘xe3-♕h2ch. Black is OK ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger view Just, the emotive side during the game put on me always a big pression.... More, this was the last round, I had won all the games till now, For a lot I was tempted to offer draw and go to the Tournament's bar and sipping a good beer..... But the "Pathos" to see this sacrifice at work, at the end got me,
...like a fever.....
Game: ♘xg3-♖xe3;
click for larger view♖xe3-♘xf4ch.;
click for larger view ♔f3-♘xd3; ♖xe8ch.-♔f7; ♖e3-♗xg3; ♘e2 and after 5/6 moves W resigned. 0-1 
click for larger viewSo, I won this tournament ( open B ) with 6/6, at the time I was in good shape cause a month later I won another Open B with 5.5/6.... All in all i closed the 2001 with a record of +12 =2 -1
and the whole period 1999-2001 with +25 =9 -6
After ♗xg3W cant take the♘d3 with the ♖ cause after ♕f4ch. is forced lost. ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewIn case of ♔g2 with: ...-♕f2ch.; ♔h1-♕h2 Mate
( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewIn case of ♔e2 with: ...-♕f2ch.; ♔d1-♕xg1ch. etc. ( Analysis Diagram )
click for larger viewAt the time I was very proud to foresaw all the side-lines before to play ♘xg3.... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++........
(8) 2001
click for larger viewAfter black played ...-♙gxf4 ( not the best )
instead to reply with the plausible and good ♙exf4, I chosed a more spectacular (but a little weaker) ♖xf4... 
click for larger viewAfter ...-0-0; ♘f6ch.-♗xf6; ♖xf6-♔g7; ♖ef1-... Black blundered with ...-♘e7; 
click for larger viewHere: ♖xd6 win
click for larger view...♕xd6; ♕xd6-♖xd6; ♗xe5ch.-♙f6; ♗xd6-♖f7; ♗xc5... 
click for larger viewHere a mixture of relax and lack of determination by my side, was facing a strong fighting mode showed by the Black... The result was another 30 moves (!) before I forced my opponent to resign. I found very amusing a comment made by my opp. during the post-game analysis: "Of course I was under pression here; but (after ...♘e7) I tought my position wasnt so bad.... but your ♖xd6 killed me... U took THREE(!) pawns with one move!!..." Very nice...:-D
