Sep-20-05		olaf4lena: 23. QxPd4 seems to be a critical error allowing Gruenfeld to pin the Queen against the king via the Bishop sacrifice on a3.

Mar-30-11		sfm: Tenacious defense. I have a lot of respect for people who fight. All the greatest were and are like that.

Jun-12-15		fredthebear: This is game #66 in "Masters of the Chessboard" by Richard Reti. It's one of the classic chess books that will instruct and inspire you.
