| tayer: Black cannot play 18. ... Rh1, since is in check |
 |
| Feb-02-04 |
| catfriend: 4.d3?, 6.a4?, 7. a2?... Awful start by Mandolfo... 17.d:e4  : g5 and I don't see escape for white. Of course, 18.f:g3 f3 (or e2) # |

| kevin86: White takes the queen-then has a big discovered check--but black interposes with a lethal counter-check,and mate next move! |

| ellipotrix: Oh my I never saw that before,
Tremendous, the art of attack! |

| mack: Can this really be given any opening as it's an odds game? |
|
| Feb-02-04 |
| boneheadcharles: <mack>Really, I would say that you can't really give it any opening. |

| PinkPanther: <dafish289>
He probably just wanted a more picturesque finish to the game. |
|

| Shadout Mapes: No, <PinkPanther>, 18.Nc6+ is check from the queen, that's why he couldn't play 18...Rh1# |
|
| Feb-03-04 |
| PinkPanther: I see....I didn't even look at that. Not to mention it's not listed as check on the scoresheet...oh well. |

| Gowe: Beautiful attack. Just great. |

| aazqua: This is worse then incompetent. White's 7th move starts a cascade of bad moves. How can this possibly be a notable game??? These guys barely play one move ahead? |

| An Englishman: Good Morning: I agree that Mandolfo has to be one of the worst players in the database, but Kolisch could play more than one move ahead: he once tied a match with Anderssen and won a tournament ahead of Winawar and Steinitz. Most Rook odds-givers take the White pieces, but Kolisch played with the additional handicap of the Black pieces. I wish I had been that bad in my career. |

| McCool: 7. Na2? is a bad move for white as well as 14.hxg4? Black just was no match for white in this game. This is a superb example of Ignatz Von Kolisch style of play. Also where's <Parijs>? |
|

| Rubenus: Parijs is the Dutch name of Paris. |
|
| Jan-27-07 |
| Rubenus: It is somewhere in France.

| dovif: Like Austria
That is in France |
|
| Dec-05-08 |
| WhiteRook48: White: Check.
Black: Check.
White: Check.
Black: That was forced (takes the Queen) MATE! |
|
| Dec-11-08 |
| WhiteRook48: This is Mandolfo's only game in the database
|
|

| WhiteRook48: 14. hxg4? hxg4!! opens up the white h-file to mating attack.
I wish one of my opponents would've fallen for this... |
|
| Jan-10-09 |
| WhiteRook48: superb game by Kolisch |
|
| Jan-11-09 |
| WhiteRook48: why is this not listed as Chess variants (000)? this is an odds game, but it doesn't say so. |
|
| Jan-17-09 |
| WhiteRook48: as before, this should not be listed as Vienna Game (C26) unless the a8 Rook was really on the board. |
|

| smhussain: Great game by Kolisch |
|
| Sep-30-09 |
| gauer: A Rook at odds to begin with, black utilizes his opportunity to also sacrifice the Queen, eventually going down a  , & for the attack of 3 of his own pieces. The idea of centralizing those Knights might've come from 2 years earlier in the final position of N Marache vs Morphy, 1857, when one can compare this game at about move 18, with a counter-checking, checkmating sequence, first catching white along the edge-file, long before black gets mated himself. |

| ounos: White should be winning with something like 16. Qe3 |
