Apr-11-14 Taimanov vs G Goldberg, 1947 
|
Kasputin: Surprised no one has commented on this game yet. 41. c7 definitely a candidate for a daily puzzle. |

Aug-30-13 Kramnik vs D Andreikin, 2013 
|
Kasputin: a) mate with the 2 rooks or b) give up the Q for the rooks with an easy K + P endgame. Either way Vlad will win. |

|
Kasputin: I wonder if Philip Morris lost because he went out for too many smoke breaks? |

|
Kasputin: b6 cannot be taken cause then the white bishop is huge with pins and forks all over the place - not taking b6 isn't much good either - black is in a bad way |

|
Kasputin: 71. c6 - why did he not play it?? |

Dec-23-12 von Scheve vs Teichmann, 1907 
|
Kasputin: <njchess> actually I can forgive Chernev for missing 17. Bxf7+ but <gorney38>'s point about getting the whole 8...Nxa5 variation wrong is a worse failure in my estimation. Like others I'm not trying to knock Chernev - well not too much anyway. There are good reasons why |

Kasputin: Hi <kasputine> - soon I'll introduce you to kaspoutine - he's a chess player from Quebec :-) |

|
Kasputin: The reverse of most puzzles. Probably easier to spot this in a real game situation versus here as a Monday puzzle. Still it wasn't all that difficult. |
