| drukenknight: This game is included in Tartakover's book for CaroKann: Panov attack. And a worthy candidate it is. On the 52nd move, Khan comes up with a plan to utilize a pawn pinned to a rook. a common theme in this opening. I am not quite sure that flohr saw it because I did not quite see the pt of moving the black K on the 55th move. See what you guys think. |

| Uzi: Wiping the Flohr would have been preferable. |

| bridgepro: why not 21...Nxa6? A plan revolving around Nc7, b5, d6 seems to preserve the balance. Capturing with the RP overvalued the b-file and leaves Flohr with a lifeless position. |

| Tenderfoot: 56. Rxf7+ is a great move, maybe it would make a nice puzzle for early in the week? |

| kevin86: There are probably a dozen good puns for Flohr.
Flohr Walker
Flohr Plan
Taking the Flohr
or just-Flohr-ed ;that would be reserved for those defeated by Flohr |

| backyard pawn: While some might argue with <kevin86> that "good puns" is an oxymoron, I enjoyed them. Flohr suffered the "Wrath of Khan" in this game. It was a Khan job.
The Sultan was a Khan artist.
and so on.
I like how the letter "h" figures in each of the players' names: in Khan it says, "ha" while in Flohr it says, "oh". |

| ironlem: I vote for "Hit the Flohr". But, in fact Flohr was hit by himself. 20...Qa6 is awful itself, but without 21...Nxa6 it's even worse. Anyway, good job by Khan. |
