  Resignation Trap: This was played in preliminary round 6 of the 1946 US Open. White was actually Eugene Levin . Felix Levin was born 15 years after this game was played!
Nov-28-06   abcpokerboy: Are you sure white wasn't actually Felix Levin? Koltanowski may have just punished him for his premature development.
Aug-28-07   wolfmaster: <RT> If that is correct(Felix had not yet been born) than his game in 1956 was not him and probably Eugene.
