Aug-05-05		chessgames.com: We recently received this game designated as "Henry Bird vs Johannes Zukertort, Paris Masters Tournament, 1878." Does anybody know if that is credible?

Aug-05-05		sneaky pete: Not credible. Bird vs Zukertort, Paris 1878, is a Giuoco Pianissimo. Two Bishop's Gambits in Paris, both with .. d5 and .. Qh4+, both won by white.

Apr-15-12		PinnedPiece: GTM Score=22 Par=15 18 Played. What a wonderful miniature.

Dec-22-14		PolishPentium: Would 11 Ng3 have improved the situation for Mr. Kornfeld?

Dec-23-14		Tullius: I do not think so; after 11.Ng3 fxg2# White loses his Queen.

Dec-23-14		offramp: Kornfeld chicken.

Dec-23-14		Tullius: Of course fxg2 is not # but +

Mar-21-18		CheckMateEndsTheGame: Why not 13.... Qf6?

Mar-22-18		razetime: White did not want to castle and got absolutely throttled for it. An instructive miniature.

Oct-28-18		TheTamale: <CheckMateEndsTheGame>: Unless I'm grossly mistaken, the move played (13... Bxd4+) forces the mate, so 13... Qf6 is weaker than the one played.
