19. Be2-b5 followed by 21. Bb5-c6? in De Boer-Dordevic, in today's last round of the Dutch Open turned out to be a bit like sending the bishop on a holiday to a desert island after 21...Nf6 (and later Rc8-c7-f7). #offsidepieces #chesspattern

Donner had harsh words for knights on b4 like Fressinets today, suggesting h9 or back to the hotel as alternative destinations #FIDEworldcup
g7-g5 on move 5 was actually ventured by Pan Inspector Yuri Sakharov in 1957. He did have the right to castle but didn't, instead left his rook on h8 & played a familiar #creepingqueen manoeuvre Qd8-g8-h7 #chesspattern https://t.co/1faJrnbjcV https://t.co/wDEFu9sXj8 @ilan_ruby
Lviv 1951: "Simagin, Aronin & Flohr qualified for the 19th USSRch". Thus the winner's name Yuri Sakharov https://t.co/0b89ACzgYV was omitted. The Ukrainian was to be arrested soon after & was rehabilitated only in 1956. He still made quite a chess career https://t.co/avFwbgbrTi
but with Nikitin, Shakarov and the Informant (Heim-Ogaard, Inf. 24)! :"I must admit that the idea of Rxf6 was known to me from a game in the 1977 Norwegian Championship. Only then it was carried out without the moves a2-a3 and Rab8" #chesspattern https://t.co/jSzlht8VyQ
ππ A top-level repetition of my play and preparation at age 15, before chess databases, engines, and the internet!
Clearly a storm is ahead at the North Sea near Wijk aan Zee #TataSteelChess 2011 #centralavalanches #chesspattern https://t.co/25QwgdAePW
In a line where @vishy64theking βs 14.Nd4! raised some dust as well as #centralavalanches from white pawns in 2011, today #AsianContinental @viditchess continued the theoretical challenge with a familiar #silentrooksac 18.Rd5! #chesspattern & won after a sharp, pointed follow-up!
The remarkable 12.Qd2!? from Ganguly in the Challengers of @PragueChess #PICF2026 is a very surprising #LadiesFirst indeed and will have come with some preparation by Surya. Fascinating though! And a tough nut for Thomas Beerdsen. #Chesspattern https://t.co/7KtRXmj2M8
Since @DingLiren opted for #LadiesFirst with 10.Qd2 vs Duda 2018 many gentlemen have followed his example. #Chesspattern (Qd2-f4-g3) @NewInChess mag2015/7 Just like Liam Vrolijk last Friday in his @Schaakstad rapidmatch vs @monkey_chess (but alas he later spoilt a good position)
(3/3) Alechin-Euwe, match 1926/27 (7) 62...Nb5! 57.Kd5 Nc3+ 58.Kc4 Na2! 0-1/(71); Gelfand-Nikolic, candidates match 1991 (3) 57.b5 Kd1 58.Nd4 Kc1 59.Nc6 Kb2 60.Kf5 Kxa2 61.Nxa7 1-0/(65); Baklan-Khenkin, Hoogeveen 2004 53...Nc1! 54.Kd2 Nb3+ 55.Kd3 Na1! 0-1/(68) #chesspattern
Alekhine memorial Moscow 1975, Bohm-Spassky.
Spassky created a small positional masterpiece vs his own Leningrad variation, doing without his a8-rook most of the game; Bohm missed one chance to get back in the game: 24.Bd4! #centralavalanches #chesspattern
https://t.co/5yZLTpILxX
Finally Giri-Caruana saw 30.Nd4! - the idea Judith was waiting for! #chesspattern #centralavalanches #NorwayChess #c24live
In the footsteps of a.o. Botvinnik, Eline Roebers manoeuvres her queen 16....Qg8! & 17...Qh7 #creepingqueen #chesspattern and goes on to beat Shirov! #Hoogeveenchess https://t.co/UtL24Ja972
In the footsteps of Akiba Rubinstein (vs Janowski Karlsbad 1907) and Mikhail Botvinnik (vs Bondarevsky 1941) @SergeyKaryakin mobilizes his strongest piece with an original #creepingqueen manoeuvre: Qf8, Kh8 and Qg8-h7 #IOMchess #chesspattern
As John Donaldson pointed out, Fischer adopted the #Nievergeltmanoeuvre #chesspattern in a simul Sunday Sept. 27th 1970 the day after the Siegen Olympiad had finished: https://t.co/YvTiYiu1WZ Likely the very next day Fischer famously confronted 19-year-old Ulf with the same idea!
In between the Sousse interzonal & the necessary 3-men play-off Stein played Hastings 67/68 where he shared 1st place https://t.co/G9ujetYesT Ao with Hort, whom he would face in the play-off too. He knocked out Keene with a fine #creepingqueen #chesspattern 23..Qd8! & 30...a6!
The #chesspattern of the first #TataSteelChess day is by Rameshbabu Vaisali : 12...b4! 13.exf6 Nxf6

(2/2) Ukrainian ch 1961. Participant of the USSR ch 1961 & 62. In masters vs candidates Ukraine 1967 he surprised the next generation of Ukrainian chess, 14-year-old Oleg Romanishin with this piece sac: 16..Nexd5!? (0-1/35) #chesspattern #centralavalanches https://t.co/NrZ50xq4Zh
@dgriffinchess "Don't think in stereotypes" - Lev Alburt on 8....Bxe5! in Ivanovic-Alburt, Reykjavik 1982 (different, albeit also from a Alekhine defence) #chesspattern
Today 70 years ago Keres beat Sajtar with a classic bishop sac #chesspattern in a well known miniature game. As the 3 other games were short bloodless draws it was 2Β½-1Β½ in USSR-Czechoslovakia, Amsterdam Olympiad 1954
https://t.co/6VPN3skcKT
@MarkTWIC @GMJacobAagaard Board 4, but certainly a score to be remembered too: 13Β½/14 by Keres at the Amsterdam Olympiad 1954
Round 10 & 11 of the Amsterdam 1956 candidates moved to the city of Leeuwarden. Present & former youth worldchampion Spassky (19)& Panno (21) as well as Petrosian (26) at the reception April 13th. It was here that the latter's 17...Bxc3! (vs Bronstein) saw the light #chesspattern
Tal-Averbakh 1961 saw 17.Ng5 Bf8 (17..h6 18.Nd5 #chesspattern Nxd5 19.exd5 hxg5 20.dxc6 Qxc6 21.Qxe5 & now Averbakh gives 21...Bb7 22.Qg3! but 22...Qe6! saves Black)18.Qf3 Bg7 19.Nd5 Qd6 20.Be3
& 'I was able to celebrate my son's 1st birthday'(Tal) 1-0(31) https://t.co/Q121efqTDi
Meanwhile Stein kept pursuing his compatriots in #AmsterdamIzt1964 (only Bronstein dropped half a point vs Ivkov, a bloodless draw) beating Evans in splendid fashion: 19.Ng5! h6 16.Nd5! and 25.Rxe7! - also to be found in 'Master of Risk Strategy'
Bilek put a hold to Stein's winning streak & should have won when he had pulled out the Ojanen-Penrose thing 15.e5! dxe5 16.f5! #chesspattern yet Stein got away with a repetition of moves #AmsterdamIzt1964 60 years ago
Actually, Gulko played 12...h5, provoking 13.Bxh5, to prevent 13.Bh5 blocking the h-fileπ.And Geller, he was in the know: Milev-Geller, Moscow (ol) 1956 saw (17.h4) Bxh4 with a draw offer, vs Vaiser he had a theoretical outing with 8...Bxh4 #chesspattern https://t.co/qho4VfWjKN
"...I had to confess that I didn't know that either, because winning the h-pawn doesn't expose White to immediate threats. Classical players such as Geller, Botvinnik, Smyslov, Alekhine, Keres - the players we learned from - knew much more about chess than we did."
At the Nice Olympiad 1974 here Karpov (vs. Unzicker) is about to open the a-file with 15.axb5, only to close it a few moves later with some 22.Ba7π#chesspattern
@NewInChess @PHChess @MagnusCarlsen Or as in Arakhmania-Alexandria, Candidates Tshkaltubo 1988: 15...a5 16.Rb1 Ra6 17.Bf5 Kd8 and 0-1/(38) #Chesspattern #FIDECandidates #WomenInChess
