Jul-11-13 Epishin vs S Zagrebelny, 1983
| |
| zooter: I saw 39.Bxe5 and yes I think 38...Kh7 is a better attempt by black to escape |

May-07-12 Dzindzichashvili vs Yermolinsky, 1993
| |
| zooter: Jeremy Silman in his book "The Amateur's mind" gives the score as 16.Rad1 Rd8 17.Rxd8 Kxd8 18.Rd1+ Ke7 with the game continunation. Which is correct? (Even Chessbase has this score), but the continuation in his book seem more logical (white grabbing open d-file) |

Apr-29-12 D Andric vs D Djaja, 1949
| |
| zooter: There are 2 great sacrifices in this game...
18.Rxf6 removes the only defender of the black king and 27.Nxe5 has to be accepted as otherwise the pawn on d6 creates havoc |

Oct-08-11 Schlechter vs J Mason, 1903
| |
| zooter: The game score is wrong. As per "The Most Instructive games of chess ever played" 27.Rd8 is the move played and seems to make more sense |

Jul-30-11 R Rey Ardid vs M Golmayo, 1929
| |
| zooter: thanks phony benoni...i came here to confirm why 9.Bxg4 was not played. I was reading "The Most Instructive Chess games Ever Played" vt Irving Chernev and was using "Chesstempo" to play through the game "Foltys vs Golombek 1947" (game # 28 in the book) when I saw that this was a side |
