I was afraid of having my K wedged in the corner. I thought on g7 I have escape, and K could capture if pawn pushes to h8, but looked no further. Thanks Harish for sharing your post game analysis with me on several of our recent games, as I usally don't play over my games, and I have no Fritz to help me. And incidentally, it's Hamann, not Hamman ;-)bulldog_bonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05068792289999189556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7360019092704946757.post-28294923842913186212007-01-12T01:32:00.000-05:002007-01-12T01:32:00.000-05:00All my wednesday over the board games, I leave it ...All my wednesday over the board games, I leave it for over night detailed analysis by Fritz. It adds a lot of variations and comments which I print out and then analyze over the board. And I was quite embarassed to see Fritz point this out to me. And the worst part is, I played fxg7, knowing that I will sacrifice my rook on c6 if ..Bc6. Its a shame I missed the continuation of the combination.Harish Srinivasanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861123209292894750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7360019092704946757.post-85948427393373055112007-01-12T00:47:00.000-05:002007-01-12T00:47:00.000-05:00No, I actually got this one without silicon help. ...No, I actually got this one without silicon help.

It is nice short combnation and it seems only one that works. Roy missed it, otherwise he would play Kh8 previously. As for me I went to look at comment first and missed my chance to try to solve. Mea culpa.procykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887228689863195621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7360019092704946757.post-38182377786545748062007-01-11T23:56:00.000-05:002007-01-11T23:56:00.000-05:00Doesn't it just stink when you "Fritz Up" a game y...Doesn't it just stink when you "Fritz Up" a game you played and you find out you missed such things?<br /><br />The answer is:<br />27. a8=Q+ with either two completely losing lines for black<br />Either 27...Kxa8 28.Qh3+ Kg7(or8)(forced) 29.Qh7#<br />Or 27...Rxa8 28.Qxf7+ Kh6(forced)29.Qg6#thechessdoctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00699163969166483712noreply@blogger.com
