Jun-23-18 Aronian vs Kramnik, 2018
| |
| princecharming: 7...Rg8 reminds me of a game in a bullet match between John Bartholomew and Eric Hansen. John, playing as White, attempted to castle short, but mouse slipped and played Rg1 instead. As it turned out,John castled long and got a strong attack on the Kingside. His mouse slip ... |

May-11-18 J van de Mortel vs I Coene, 2001
| |
| princecharming: I ran the engine on the final position, and I have no idea what's going on. Apparently after a whole bunch of quiet moves that don't threaten anything concrete, white is +7.12. (22...Qd6 23.Nf4 Nc5 24.Kb1 Nf5 etc.) |

Apr-25-18 P Tregubov vs Efimenko, 2008
| |
| princecharming: Damn, I had 33.Qf6 gxh5 34.Bh6 too. Unfortunately, it doesn't force mate. 34...Rxf2+ 35.Kxf2 Qb2 36.Nd2 is what I calculated, and the Queen has no good check. However, after 35...Qc5+, the Queen is getting onto that light-squared diagonal with check at some point, and then ... |
