    I really like the visual pattern posts, bring 'em on!

    Especially since the Chunky Rook (http://thechunkyrook.wordpress.com/) has been quiet, I've been missing them.

    Yes. I think this sort of thing is helpful. Chunky was doing a great job. I would like to make changing gifs as he does.

    Here is more famous game with the same pattern.
    Petrosian vs Pachman
