Jan-31-11  madhatter5: 4.♗c4? (instead of the usual 4.c4) can be met by 4...♘b6 5.de de 6.♕xd1=
Apr-06-11  Llawdogg: 40 ... Rxe1+! was a great tactical shot by Colle to put this one away. This game should have more kibitzing. Very nice.
Nov-02-15  jemptymethod: I'm trying to make sense of madhatter's annotation which is really hard since he begins with 4. Bc4? which is decidely not the case -- 4. Bc4 is a respectable move. As for 4....Nb6 the sequence he gives beginning 5.de is of course impossible. I think he may mean after 5.Bb3 then 5...dxe5 but then what he misses is that White does not play 6.dxe5 but rather 6.Qh5. All this is readily available in online opening databases such as 365chess.com or http://database.chessbase.com/js/ap...
