Dec-26-19 Seirawan vs Timman, 1990

paulgottlieb: After 23...Nxd6, Doesn't 24.Qxd6 simply win a piece? The same is true after 23,,,Qxd6. And Black can't play Rd8 because White's bishop controls the square. And White can play Rhg1 soon with tremendous threats |

Oct-27-12 Fischer vs K Sillars / L Manter, 1964 
|
paulgottlieb: Bunnies by Fischer's standard, of course, but that's what makes the game so instructive. When a great player encounters a non-master, you often get a dramatic, and highly instructive, demonstration of what happens when you neglect basic principles |

Apr-11-11 Dreev vs Rublevsky, 2007
|
paulgottlieb: Interesting game, but wasn't Dreev doing just fine until he played 45.g5? and just walked into a simple fork? |
