This week's ChessVideos show: Tactics Seen and Unseen
http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1220579146.shtml
Looking through some of my old games, I came across my biggest OTB
scalp with the dubious 1.e4 e6 2.c4 anti-French system, a win against
IM Jay Bonin. Unfortunately, he played 2...c5, so we'll never know how
he'd have reacted to the lively lines after 2...d5 3.cxd5 exd5 4.Qb3,
but the game had its tactically rich moments nevertheless. As the
title suggests, the players weren't always up to the challenge at that
moments, but that's so much the better for you, dear reader (and
hopefully viewer): you can watch, stop the recording at the relevant
moments, and see if you can find what my opponent and I missed.
Whether you outdo us or not, I trust you'll find the game an
entertaining one. But see for yourself: the show is free, available
on-demand, and doesn't require any special software. Just [1]click and
watch.
