Overlooked Blunders

Overlooked Blunders
Compiled by Manic

Below are a few games where blunders have been completely overlooked by both players, including World Champions. It just goes to show that we are all human =)

Also of note is to look up Tim Krabbe's "Ultimate Blunders" page (I think someone made a collection with the games on that page)
