Dec-26-04  Snow Man: This is some fancy footwork by the Iron Tigran. Stick and move! Stick and move!
Apr-05-08  Knight13: I'm thinking about why Spassky didn't play 14. Bxg7 and instead retreated. And don't tell me he saw this Qb3 Ne4-c5-e6-xf8 (dark-squared bishop) and decided not to take on g7. That would be super-deep.
