Missed Mate-Summerscale-Hebden??!!?? - 2006/06/26 13:35
I was going over the game Summerscale-Hebden from the 1998 British championship`s 6th round. When the position after the position after White`s 41st move came up and black played 41...e4?. I couldn`t believe there wasn`t a mate, after a few seconds I saw 41... Qe6+ which seems to lead to mate in all variations. Am I missing something, and why didn`t Hebden see it imediately? [Event "ch-GBR"] [Site "Torquay ENG"] [Date "1998.08.01"] [Round "6"] [White "Summerscale, A."] [Black "Hebden, M."] [Result "1/2-1/2"] [ECO "E99"] [WhiteElo "2440"] [BlackElo "2585"] [Annotator "Pinkney"] [PlyCount "93"]
