| ppm: With 32..Qb2+ 33.Kd1 Nb4, Black goes a queen up or wins by move 38. |

| |
| ppm: <beginner64>, if 20)..Qxe6, then 21)Nxf6+ is better. |

Jul-16-07 L Monosson vs M Fauque, 1935
| |
| ppm: Just wondering if there was a 'Monday mate' if black had played 5..Kf8. |

| ppm: <whatthefat>,
To 14..Qd7, 15. Ne5, black could reply with 15..Qg7.

| |
| ppm: I thought black could wriggle out even without taking nabbing white's bishop. For the sake of completeness:
