Jul-02-20 Judit Polgar vs R M D P de Almeida, 1992    samvega: The game score makes better sense if white is assumed to have played 20. Re1 instead of 20. Rb1.      Jun-28-20 I Upton vs R Granat, 2000   samvega: Interesting move, but I was wondering what the purpose of it was, and why white wouldn't play 49.Bf4. Apparently white does gain the advantage with 49.Bf4, while the position was drawn a couple moves earlier, so 47..Rf2 is a blunder.      Jun-18-20 J Fraguela Gil vs Keene, 1976   samvega: Oops. Posted to the wrong game.      May-04-20 S Williams vs T Luther, 2003   samvega: A couple interesting tactical ideas: Black to play 16... ? [DIAGRAM] Black to play 20... ? [DIAGRAM]      Apr-25-20 Nunn vs A Kinsman, 1993   samvega: This one I got, unlike the Nunn - Miezis.      Apr-25-20 Nunn vs N Miezis, 1999    samvega: Beautiful tactic.      Apr-19-20 Roy Saptarshi vs Nagpal Vardan, 2017   samvega: 14.O-O-O sure seems deep to me. Not a postition for a puzzle, since there's no combination if the piece offer is refused, but pretty cool anyway.      Apr-19-20 A Yegiazarian vs E Danielian, 2000   samvega: The engine (in its six-seconds mode anyway) sure is sac happy. I was trying to understand the point of White's peculiar 11.Nh5, which has four instances in this database. The engine likes 11..Nd5. This seems logical, depriving the knight on h5 of the opportunity to exchange itself ...      Apr-05-20 Szabo vs C Kottnauer, 1950    samvega: If you're not Laszlo Szabo, you could just win a humble exchange with 21. Bc7 followed by Be7.      Mar-31-20 Z Stockova vs C Perena, 2018   samvega: Bah! Went with the wrong follow up 25. Qe1?
