patz8491: If 20...Rxd6 21.Nxb7, the rook has nowhere to go. If Re7, Nc5 forks the K and N. |

Mar-24-22 A Sandrin vs S Rubinow, 1946 
|
patz8491: Phony Benoni's comment about time pressure explains why black failed to see 36...RxR, crushing White.
(Obviously, PxR or Pc5 are answered by RxB)
Or am I missing something? |

Jul-09-21 G Feher vs V Priehoda, 1994 
|
patz8491: So, the problem is black to play and lose? And the solution is difficult? Really? I can find any number of losing continuations without any difficulty at all.
What exactly are we doing here? |

Apr-12-19 Portisch vs Pachman, 1967 
|
patz8491: Kriegspiel, "...any truth to the (apocryphal?) story that, upon Pachman's resignation, Portisch made "boop-boop-boop" sounds and said "Game Over"?
None whatsoever. This game was played in 1967, thirteen years before Pac-Man existed. |

|
patz8491: Can someone please explain to me why not 46.Rd8 The black queen cannot leave the back rank because of 47.Qh8# After 46...Rf2, simply 47.Kg1 wraps it up, doesn't it? |

|
patz8491: Waht am I missing here? Doesn't ...39.QxR win instantly? Whether White takes the Queen or not, nothing can stop the black pawn from queening. |
