Minor pairs

Minor pairs

I don't know why but I've recently looked at the TWIC files for games where both minor pairs [bishops & knights] appear with an active part, for both sides. Rare material formation, as a minor exchange is usually the first one in a game. But even if this formation would appear, it was even more rare the case where all four minors would have an active part, for a combination or for deciding a win. Usually the latter would come up after more exchanges.

Anyway... I've picked five games where I think beautiful combinations appear, always having in mind the activation of all four minors, in parallel or directly successively, for at least one side.
