| kevin86: A good king chase,like the other one recently;a great example of the (black) magic of chess. |

| ricardolopez: Isn?t 15...d4 better? It's an ancient principle not to open columns if you are under attack. |

| WMD: After 10...b6 'This position has been critical since 1907 and remains so. The whole line has recently been christened the 'Frankenstein-Dracula' variation because it is terrifying for both sides, and like these two famous gentlemen, has an incredible facility for rising from the grave.' |

| vonKrolock: Once i searched some information about the problemist from London Mr. Frankenstein (active in late xixth Century) and found a flood of informations about the mentioned line: a case in which a "creature" obscures a (not ITS) "creator" ... |

| Averageguy: Even if this line gives black a dangerous initiative, many players as black dont know this line at all. They simply believe thay are being clever and playing for the "Knight fork" with 3...Nxe4 and are shocked when I play 4.Qh5, and then lose pathetically soon after with moves like 4...g6?? or 4...Ng5?? |

| aw1988: I think the result here was 1-0, not 0-1. Before Nunn could deliver mate, he lost on time. |

| Benzol: <alexmagnus> Book vs Heidenheimo, 1925
and
J Kis vs E Csato, 1993
are two possible continuations. |

| sleepyirv: Well, I guess the king had a very scary time! (I apologize for that joke.) |

| Check It Out: This opening is crazy...and then 17 of the last 18 moves were checks by black. I wonder what the record number of checks in a row in a grandmaster game is? |

| Superbull: Move 26 was the best chance for white to escape. Why not 26.Qb8+ Ke7 27.Qxf8+ Kxf8 28.Raf1+ Ke7 29.Nc7... White now has two rooks for a queen and counterplay on f7. |

| zb2cr: To <Superbull>,
You asked: "Why not 26.Qb8+ Ke7 27.Qxf8+ Kxf8 28.Raf1+ Ke7 29.Nc7... White now has two rooks for a queen and counterplay on f7." Maybe because of 29. ... Qe3, threatening instant mate by ... Ng5, which forces White to sacrifice one of his Rooks to avoid the mate. This is either by 30. Rf7+ or by 30. g3. |

| Viewer Deluxe: Most likely white missed their best chance with 28. Qg3 Qh6+ 29. Qh4 where black has nothing decisive and draw is possible. On the other hand black missed big time on their previous move:
27... Bxg2+ 28. Kg3 (28. Kxg2 Ne3+ mate in 5 29. Kh2 Qh4+ 30. Kg1 Qg4+ and mates)
28... Bxf1 with so many deadly threats.

| kevin86: A good one,but I would have liked to see the TOMB GAME on this day. lol How pathetic it was for white's pieces,who were all a fifty dollar cab ride away from the action. They were helpless to do anything but watch. |

| Dr. J: I fail to understand the reasoning behind <24 ... Qd4+ 25 Kh2 Ne5>. To me, much clearer seems 24 Qf2+25 Kh2 Rf5, e.g., 26 Rhe1+ Kf8 27 Qg3 Rh5+ 28 Qh3 Rxh3+ 29 Kxh3 Qf5+30 g4 Qf3+ 31 Kh4 Qf2+ 32 Kh3 Ne5. All alternatives for White seem to be easily refuted. Did I miss something? Meanwhile, in the game variation <24 ... Qd4+ 25 Kh2 Ne5>, what happens after 26 Qxb7? |

| charlie2000: Yeah ,always wrong Newzild |

| Nullifidian: <Dr. J><Meanwhile, in the game variation <24 ... Qd4+ 25 Kh2 Ne5>, what happens after 26 Qxb7?> Mate in 4, starting with 26. ...  g4+!
Continues:
27.  g3  f4+ 28. h4 (28. h3 f2#) f2+ 29.  g4 xg4# or 27. h3 f2+ 28. h2 (g3 f4#) h4+ 29. g1 xh1# |

| WhiteRook48: why did White play this out to checkmate? Or did he not know the checkmate? |
