Well that explains it. Did you find it on any English site?

Anyway, I'd like to thank you for providing the pgn of this rare gem!

Best,
Terry

P.S. Did it win a brilliancy prize?

Only reference to the game on an english site that I could find was http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgam ... 98&kpage=1

Note that black's sixth move was entered incorrectly.

The PGN is definitely worth a look. There are a few good sacrifices in that one.[/url]

Has anyone Checked Rc7 and Re7?

Hello? Has anyone analized, 24.Qxe5! fe5 25.Rf1 Rc7!!, this is the toughest defence and I'm not sure if White can win after this move?

Hi Terry,

I think black losses after this, I explained why in the post "Solution" in this thread. Unless you improved for black?

What do you do after 24.Qxe5! fe5 25.Rf1 Rc7!! Bd1 Re7!! Bb3...ok I see your post with this line, but is b5 forced?

I still think it needs to be checked further. I'll get back to you on this.

I checked it out...I was being obtuse....yes Black is busted! Black has to push the b and a pawns and you push your pawns exchange and get a pawn on c5 forcing mate!!

What a position, and how instructive. This is a brillant gem of a game!

Thanks ever so much for posting it Marc!

Terry, yesterday I saw that this position was analised by me(with computer help),
Howard Exner, Uri and others in 1999 or 2000. We concluded that black wins.
I look for the posts, but I didn´t found.
Interesting is that when Marc Moisan post the position, I didn´t found the queen
sacrifice, I become an old man.
