K on the 3rd and more tempo moves...I'm going to see if I can analyze it out to a finish. I'll let you know...Robert Pearsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01357942424904415208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-1139408290235569952006-02-08T09:18:00.000-05:002006-02-08T09:18:00.000-05:00Thanks for the comment and the link.

It got me to take a look at your blog, which I have not done for a while, and I liked your post on "The New Era in Chess Publishing" (which deserves a link back). <BR/><BR/>BTW: I think I just found a "cook" for problem #2 -- Selling-Davis. The proposed "solution" is still the surprising best move, but it does not force a draw. White has chances to continue the game and play for a win (which he would have done with an opponent much lower rated)... Make that a second puzzler if you wish.Michael Goellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14512012158305281566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-1139355382736519902006-02-07T18:36:00.000-05:002006-02-07T18:36:00.000-05:00Hi Michael,I love these reports and find them very...Hi Michael,<BR/><BR/>I love these reports and find them very instructive. Did a post and a link to this one today.<BR/><BR/>I looked at the Kernighan - Tomkovich diagram for a long time and couldn't find 29. ...b5 to save my life! Interesting and difficult combination.Robert Pearsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01357942424904415208noreply@blogger.com
