  Sneaky: Bravo, Kolty, Bravo!
Aug-25-03   jaime gallegos: with Bxh7+ starts a nice combination with six movements to checkmate !!!
Jan-30-04   Hidden Skillz: why rent more ppl playin the b4 against the sicilian?? i think its very nice sumthin like the evans gambit..
Feb-14-04   Hidden Skillz: when i analyzed this position from move 8. e5..my program came up wit a mate in 29 moves..this is the best black could have played..8.Bc7 9.Bxh7+ Kh8 10.Ng5 Nxe5 11. dxe5 g6 12.Qf3 Bxe5 13.Nxf7+ Rxf7 14.Qxf7 Bg7 15.Bg5 Kxh7 16.Bxe7 Qg8..from there on u exchange the queens n end up winning the game..
Oct-20-04   sumant 9: How old actually NN is?Is he a human or a computer?
Nov-29-04   white pawn: He's about 400, give or take a few years. He's a slow learner, however. I imagine that by the time he's 2000 or so, he'll be the man to beat.
Aug-10-05   SneechLatke: Stupid Wing Gambit! *grumble*
Aug-10-05   mack: Thanks for that insightful piece of analysis.
Aug-10-05   SneechLatke: <mack> But of course! It is my pleasure!
Aug-10-05   SneechLatke: Following up: As a Sicilian player myself, I hate to see the Sicilian lose to dubious side lines/gambits played by people who are afraid or unwilling to enter the main lines.
Aug-10-05   n30: blind! simul! awesome!
Aug-27-07   wolfmaster: <SneechLatke< All Kolty wanted to do was create a unblanced position, and it certainly worked! Great lesson of the Bxh7 sac.
Oct-16-07   Jesspatrick: 12. Qc2+ Nd3+ 13 Qxd3+ Kf6 14.Nh7# was possible too. Where else could you have a combo with four out of five half moves being check?
