My first queen sacrifice ever! I've seen them in tactics collections, now I can boast my (admittedly simple) own sacrifice:

I found a typical Sicilian blow. Can you?

Somebody posted a thread requesting somebody annotate their game, so I took a look at the game and decided to annotate the early stages:

Most people are aware of this, but some are still caught unsuspectingly...

If you have a game you played, post it on this thread and maybe it will be shown next week. Don't send me a message with the game, as I get 350+ messages a week and I would rather not add to my inbox. Just post it here, and you might find your game annotated next week!

The following game was a Dragon that turned insanely tactical, no human could play this perfectly. I encourage you to explore every move and sacrifice, and to try to discover the purpose behind them:

On move 23 Ponomariov found a very unusual plan. Annotations by Marin.

This game really isn't very interesting, just book theory followed by a perpetual, but this draw pushed me over 1800 for the first time!

Black's 18...Nxh7?? was a huge defense. Better defense was offered with 18...Bf5! 19... gxf5?? clearly isn't good either.
