Oct-19-19 Efimenko vs S Sjugirov, 2019

| najdorfBAS: This is showing 1-0, is that correct? This is a win for Black unless he lost on time in a completely winning position |

Apr-25-19 P Dittmar vs N Ferrari, 2001
| |
| najdorfBAS: I don't think 37...Qb7 deserves "??" as Black is completely lost whatever he plays. The damage had been done much earlier with 21...Rae8?? |

Dec-02-11 Fischer vs H Seidman, 1959
| |
| najdorfBAS: "Seidman tries to play Bobby for a fool. 11)...Rd6 completely ignores the attack on the b4 knight" Not sure I agree with that comment. Surely the reason for 11...Rd6 is that the attacked Knight cannot move anywhere useful. If the Knight moves Fischer plays 12. Bc6+ and he has the |

| najdorfBAS: Black has no good moves, and White threatens immediate mate with 16.Nf5+ and 17. Nf6. 15...Rd8 doesn't stop the mate

Oct-03-10 Efimenko vs D Stojanovic, 2010
| |
| najdorfBAS: 23.Nxe5! is a fine move which must have taken Black by surprise. 23...Qxe5 would lose to 24.Bf4 Qh5 25.Nxf6+ followed by 26.Qxh5 |

Mar-20-08 Adams vs M Gurevich, 2007
| |
| najdorfBAS: Am I going mad? Isn't 28. Nxe6 a blunder because black has 28...Rd1 and all white's pieces are en prise? Moving the N on e6 to allow the white rook to protect the WQ doesn't work as the rook is pinned. What does white do? Sorry if I've missed something obvious. |
