Simultaneous game by the Mexican GM Carlos Torre) White resigned.

This can happen

in a
simultaneous. But the rook on d8 is actually overloaded, having to cover both d2 and
g8. So
White has to try 1 Rd6! and that in fact wins. 1 ...cxd6 2 f7 or, e.g., 1 ...Rxd6 2 g8=Q+
Kd7 3
Qxh7+ Kc6 4 Qe4+ Kb6 5 Qb4+ Kc6 6 Qxc5+ Kxc5 7 f7. We can also look at this as a
deflection of the black rook from the 8th rank.
17. (lvkov-Larsen, Zagreb 65) 16 ...Qb6xb2?? was punished by 17 Reb1! Qc2 18 Ne1
trapping the
queen. Or rather winning a piece for two pawns after 18 . ..Qxf2+ Really, the poisoned
pawn
on b2 should be left in peace.
18. (Eiiskases-Castaldi, Milan 38) The right discovered check is the one on e1, which
blockades
the line from the rook on a1 to the promotion square g1, After 1 ...Re1+ 2 Qxc5 g1=Q+
we
experience the so-called x-ray effect on the diagonal g1-c5. Some call it a skewer. A
couple of
excellent definitions. The English use skewer, but Harald Enevoldsen prefers x-ray. All
right,
Harald!
19. (Petrosian-Simagin, Moscow 56) I told you to remember this stratagem. Yes, no. 15!
Petro
remembered it for ten years, but the opposite way, from the more difficult 19 to the
easier 15.
Here are two decoys before the actors are in their right places: 45 Bxe5+! Qxe5 46
Qh8+!
Kxh8 47 Nxf7+ Black resigns. Very smooth. And a good example of the fact that
