Jan-26-06 A Pomar vs Robatsch, 1966 
| |
| yeats1939: What if white moves 23 Rd2, instead of waiting til 24? Then, 23... Qd3, 24. Rf2...Qe3, 25 Bb2. Then white's queen can start doing some remarkable damage. Taking the black bishop on 23 seems a bit off to me. Perhaps someone more knowledgable can explain the mistake in my thinking ... |

| yeats1939: It seems to me a much stronger move by white would be 31. Bxf5. Can someone explain what I'm missing? |

| |
| yeats1939: Black's big mistake, it seems to me, was 8. Qd2. Can someone comment on the purpose of this move? |

| yeats1939: Ahh. As Monthy Python said so well, "Da Bishup". Thanks. I'd lost track of that fellow. Wondered where he'd got to. |

| |
| yeats1939: By the way, <chessgames.com>, if you ever run this as game of the day, I have a headline: "Will blunders never cease?" But perhaps you've used that one already... |

| |
| yeats1939: Okay, I'm dumb, but why not Q to b8 or Rd3 to d8? Is it the bishop? |

| |
| yeats1939: Might black have salvaged things if instead of 25...Qb6 he did 25...f6? |
