vanderyacht has kibitzed 24 times to chessgames   [more...]

Aug-01-15 H Spangenberg vs Van Wely, 1994    vanderyacht: Did black make a mistake by not castling 5 to 7 moves earlier?      Mar-07-15 Browne vs M Damjanovic, 1971    vanderyacht: What was the purpose of 21...Rd5 ?      Jun-26-14 D Fleetwood vs I Mackintosh, 2006    vanderyacht: Why didn't black play ...28 Nxe6 ?      Jun-16-14 Ivanchuk vs Kamsky, 1994    vanderyacht: <But i'm also unsure about how to proceed to achieve the win as Black there after 31.Rf1.> ...Bg2 winning a rook      Feb-18-14 Rossolimo vs R G Wade, 1950    vanderyacht: What's the purpose of 6. Bf1 7. Bxb5 instead of 6. Bxb5 ?      Feb-17-14 L Mista vs Plachetka, 1974    vanderyacht: Why doesn't black play 25...Bxc5 ?      Dec-31-13 Z Peng vs S Plukkel, 2010    vanderyacht: <paulofx2071: why 40)... Nc5+? and not direct 40)... Rf8?> It might be because otherwise white's next move would have been Rxh2.      Dec-28-13 V Neverov vs S Bogdanovich, 2013    vanderyacht: But then black plays 35...Rh5 threatening mate with Qh2. I suppose the continuation would be 36 Re1 Qh2+ 37 Kf1 and the attack peters out.      Nov-20-13 Steinitz vs Barry / Pillsbury / Snow, 1892    vanderyacht: Why won't white play cxb4?      Oct-11-13 R Nezhmetdinov vs S Pimenov, 1936    vanderyacht: Why does black play 15...Kd8 instead of waiting a few moves and castling, and why does black play 25...Qxe6 instead of Nxe6?
