Nov-07-07		Honza Cervenka: Black won a Pawn in the opening and got a seemingly easily won game but just a few moves later he found himself suddenly in very precarious situation with several deadly pins and was quickly slaughtered. It is hard to say where he made the decisive mistake but maybe 18...Rb8 not leaving Rd8 unprotected would have been better.

Nov-08-07		Honza Cervenka: Well, 19...Nxc3+ seems to be the decisive mistake. Instead of that simple retreat of Queen 19...Qc5 would have kept clear edge for black.

Nov-08-07		dorn: I think Black should've dared to play 15...Qxf2.
