I loved all three games! Just seemed so satisfying to think "You can have this Queen. I dont need it".

These 3 games are an inspiration for me and makes me think I need to study tactics more. I am very old school. If I lose the queen I lose the game. Even if it seems like the best thing is a queen sac my hands shake too bad to allow that to happen. Great games.

Nice Hat trick of games Exuma.

Have you been studying the games Albert Whiting Fox he figured in all three.

Yes was looking at a few of Fox's games, taking a bit of gp advice and looking up the classics 🙂 I got there from looking at Marshall, who seems to beat him up a lot, so decided to watch a few where Mr Fox wins. Fabulous

I love R&B mates. They combine the elegance of the Bishop with the brutality of the Rook. Well played. Delightful.

Hey Andy - wish I was the author of these games but I'm not. If you click on "headers" you can see the players in the games. I should have included this info in the thread title, sorry...
