| Morty: Wow! I hope this Diller fellow didn't consider himself a fairly good player. Falling for the most elementary trap in the Petroff!? My dear GOD!! |

| Dudley: He was probably a grade school student. |

| Morty: Yeah, or a mentally handicapped person. |

| zb2cr: And Kolty was blindfold, too. |

| aw1988: LOL OH MY GOD. I knew this trap when my opponent played 3...Nxe4 but i thought it was mate! Play continued 4. Qe2 Nf6 5. Nc6+ and i was suprised it didn't say I mated him. So after Be7 I just took the bishop!!!! Ridiculous! |

| aw1988: Most embarrasing game of my life... |

| Knezh: Looking at this game as an example, i wonder why.. |

| WannaBe: Err.. I am going to guess that Diller was the one wearing blind-fold?? :-) (I know who was doing the blind by the way, before everyone start to correct me.) |

| Mitch Mitchell: Why does black resign? He still has a healthy pawn structure. |
 |

| MaxxLange: Probably a simul game. This is an old opening trap, don't be hating on Koltanowski because of this silly game. |

| Pretzel Logic: < MaxxLange >
Wasn't there a Max Lange who was famous for something? |
 |

| TheAlchemist: <Pretzel Logic> Yes, he's famous for this: Adolf Anderssen vs Max Lange, 1859 and the resulting mating pattern, which is named after him, if I'm not mistaken |

| elh: Probably Max Lange is more famous for the Max Lange Attack in the 2 Kts (although I only ever get it from the Scotch Gambit). |

| MorphyMatt: NN vs E Fossan, 1991 |

| MaxxLange: He was a noted player in the 19th century, and there's a well known line in the 2 Knights named after him. My handle is just a dumb joke, I don't have a point to make about him or anything. His games are nice, romantic style of play. |

| DCP23: I've played exactly that on ICC many times. As White, mind you. |

| Rajiv Herman Kramer: This is called the Russian Trap |
 |

| hellstrafer: Strangely, this is the Damiano Variation of the Petroff. How come all inferior openings are named after poor Damiano? :P |
