Chess Crackers (September/October 2008)
More crackers to snack on! This month’s edition bring more excitement on the 64 squares. IM Emory Tate makes his usual contribution with a nice shot. Pontus Carlsson unfurls his fire-breathing Dragon to bring fire on the board. Cameo appearances by Jimmy Canty and Glenn Umstead round out the collection.

More Chess Crackers!
In the canty game, 23. Rxe7 seems to lead to a more complicated position after 23. …Bxf2 with the idea of 24.Kxf2 Qxe7 25. Qc8 Rd8.
I am a bit rusty but what do you think?
