Oct-13-04		Whitehat1963: I think Blackburne couldn't believe he could lose to this guy, so he played to the bitter end.

Oct-13-04		keypusher: Strange to play all that way and then resign just before the mate.

Oct-13-04		akiba82: Black was only sixteen at the time, and not well known. Too bad he didn't continue to play, he had talent.

May-31-05		Knight13: Man! Blackburne's 2 pawn sacrifice really killed him.

Feb-08-09		DarthStapler: The tactics here were just crazy

Feb-08-09		binno: I think Danish Gambit was considered a valid opening in that age.
