Sep-18-21 Mark Diesen
| |
| rbhgroup: I also met Mark in the Washington D.C. area, around 1970 or so... he was a great chess talent, of course, but also a very enjoyable person to be around, and very approachable. The world needs more people like him. R.I.P. |

Sep-10-21 W Schmidt vs J Lewi, 1968
| |
| rbhgroup: I found 34. Rxd6 to be followed by 35. Qd5+ fairly quickly, but could not see anything definitive for White after 34...Re5. After that, it was just a wild goose chase looking for a better idea... |

Feb-18-21 Lutikov vs A Kapengut, 1978
| |
| rbhgroup: Looked at the old standby Nd5 for too long... then spotted b4... but after a couple of days without running water in the house, I could not get through all the variations... did spot R:f6 in response to Qc7 though.... so not a total fail.... shout out to all my brothers and sisters |

Feb-18-21 E Rosen vs S Lang, 2019
| |
| rbhgroup: odd.. I seem to remember playing this exact game last night against Fritz.... of course, after days without power, and now water, I could be imagining things... shout out to all my Texas brothers and sisters! |

Jan-31-21 V Kovacevic vs S Martinovic, 1981
| |
| rbhgroup: nice game... I spotted Qe6 (what else could it be?) but then out-smarted myself by opting for capturing on f7 with the bishop instead of the pawn... (although I did see g:f7 as a possibility)... so near, yet so far... |

Jan-31-21 D Allan vs L Day, 1980
| |
| rbhgroup: perhaps, in a parallel universe somewhere, the game was played in New York, New York... |
