Jun-30-06  WhoKeres: A very unusual combination by Janowski in the opening led to a strong attack for him. Note that he had tyhe bishop pair, which he was known to be an expert in handling. I also liked the delayed casting on move 30. A very original game!
Oct-11-12  Tullius: It starts as a Ruy Lopez (Spanish Game), but after 6...Bd7 there is a position of the Scotch Gambit, which is normally reached with 1.e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 3.Bc4 Nf6 5.e5 d5 6.Bb5 Ne4 7.Nxd4 Bd7

  keypusher: In the tournament book Tarrasch says that White could have held on and maintained an advantage with 17.N3d2 (17.Qxd4 Qg5+ 18.Qg4 Qc1+ ) Bc5 18.Ne4 Bb6 19.Bg3 Qh5 20.Nbd2 (or 20.Rh2 d3+ 21.Bf2 dxc2 22.Qxc2 Qxf3 23.Nbd2) 20....d3 21.Nxc4 Bxf2+ 22.Kxf2.

Tarrasch thought that the knight sacrifice was basically an expedient because it had no good retreat. Who knows?
