mandy64 has kibitzed 49 times to chessgames   [more...]

Jan-08-22 Z Gaal vs T Vidic, 2021   mandy64: Nice queen sac!      Jun-17-19 K Honfi vs J Lokvenc, 1962    mandy64: Some annotation from his son, Gyorgy Honfi (translated by me) Nowdays, in 2005, they would rather try 10..Bc6 14..Qc8 Black defends his pawn, as he can. It can not pe pushed, because then c6 would be fatally weakened. The reply to the natural 14..Nc5 would be the nasty e5. 16..Nb6      Feb-04-19 Dennis Posocco vs Ezra Terryn, 2017    mandy64: The siberian trap, a Morra gambit player should know it.      Jul-28-15 Nunn vs Csom, 1977   mandy64: @ Ch3st: if 31..f6, the queen at c7 defends the g7 pawn, that is the purpose of the move.      Jul-25-15 J Robertson vs E Williams, 1841    mandy64: Because after 26. exf7 Qxe2 27. fxe8=Q Rxe8 black threatens with both a back rank mate and with Qb2 forking the rook and the knight. So, 28. Nc2 is the only option, but 28.. d3 wins at least a piece. [DIAGRAM]      Jul-23-14 Rapport vs T Rogers, 2014    mandy64: Give Rogers a break! 4..Nd7 was an overshight, it does NOT mean that he is a weak, overrated player. @#$% happens, we are humans, not computers. Even Karpov could lose in 12 moves due to a simple double attack pattern. Christiansen vs Karpov, 1993      Feb-27-14 Boleslavsky vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1957    mandy64: What's the idea of 30. h3?      Jan-14-14 Igor Kurnosov    mandy64: His game against Kozul should be in his notable games (one of my all-time favourites): Z Kozul vs I Kurnosov, 2010      Jun-17-13 H Pfleger vs Z Domnitz, 1964    mandy64: 27. Rd6 is not so spectacular, but winning a knight in such an overwhelming position should be enough to win the game.      May-27-13 F Jackson vs C Flanders, 2006    mandy64: Also 46. Re1 would have been a winning move.
