Dec-18-02  ughaibu: Tarrasch blunders away a piece in the opening but works up plenty of compensation, enough to win back the piece. Bogolubow then blunders away a piece rather than winning the exchange.
May-19-03  sam jk: Bit of an odd move

  Dillinger: so this is a notable game for bogoljubov but the game score and result are both incorrect?
May-03-04  ThePurplePimpernel: Did this actually happen, though, or is it just a variation? I think the real game ended after Pxf3. There was a short story about an old grandmaster playing the Danish and worrying: "...Tarrasch lost a game in nine moves, Alapin in five..."
Jul-06-04  jaime gallegos: Qh6 ??? I disagree with ughaibu , there wasn´t compensation if 28... Bxf3+ 29. Nxf3 Rh6 and blacks are better

  percyblakeney: It's hard to understand how a player like Bogoljubov can make a move like 27. ... Qh6. Some sites claim that Tarrasch resigned after the ninth move, but it does seem as if this is what actually happened. Bogoljubov finished third in the tournament, behind Reti and Rubinstein: http://www.hipermoderno.com/torneos...

  Gypsy: <Some sites claim that Tarrasch resigned after the ninth move, but it does seem as if this is what actually happened.> Tournament table in Kalendovsky's 'Reti' has indeed Tarrasch as the winner here.
Jan-17-09  WhiteRook48: Yikes, white blunders a piece and wins!
Aug-10-09  nuwanda:

maybe Bogo, when playing 27...Qh6, simply "forgot" that white could stop the h-pawn with his knight after 28.hg Qxf6 29.Rxf6 h3
