Dec-09-04		drukenknight: Oh give me a break! 24 Rf2 there is no win here.

Nov-13-05		Autoreparaturwerkbau: <druken> So, where IS the win then?

Dec-04-06		bpdoc: How about 22...Nd4. If 23.Bxg7, then 23...Nxf2 24.Bxf8 Nxe2 . If 23.Rf2, then 23...Rf5, pinning the queen.

Dec-04-06		asip87: how come he resign before finishing it...?

Jul-14-07		Granny O Doul: The score is obviously incomplete.

Dec-04-07		rozumim: Okay, I give. What's the deal here? If the score is incomplete, as Granny O Doul has suggested, then why have five different people included this game in their game collections? And is there, in fact, a forced win from this position? Would someone care to elaborate on it?
