Circle 6, Step 4 Complete

I finished this circle with 94%. At this point I have done so many circles on getting dizzy! Forward and onward...

-=-=-=-=-

My ICC standard rating just broke 1550. I would like to credit the circles, but frankly this had more to do with my opponents running out of time. Still, something that DLM wrote about has been borne out consistently; alot of my wins were gifts from my opponents.

There was one situation where the circles seemed to pay off.




I was Black here and had just played ...Re7 as a last-ditch effort to win. White saw the most natural move and played Nd5??, forking both the e7 Rook and the b4 pawn. It continued ...Rea7! threatening checkmate, c3 trying to get some luft (Fritz has c4 as best), ...b3 hemming in the King, Kc1 avoiding checkmate, ...Ra1+ skewering the Black King and the h1 Rook. To add insult to injury, White loses a tempo because after Kd2 Rxh1, Black threatens another skewer along the second rank with ...Rh2+, attacking the b2 pawn through the King on d2.
