Jun-20-07		Whitehat1963: Clever and aggressive performance by the Player of the Day. Early knight sac followed by a storm of pawns on both sides of the board proves too much. But I think white could have held out much longer with accurate play.

Jun-20-07		Chicago Chess Man: There's plenty of puns available here based on the movie, "The Thomas Crown Affair."

Jun-20-07		ounos: I don't get it. Why not 42. Rxd2? And even 40. Qxd2 looks safe.

Jun-20-07		Sydro: 42.Bxe6 just a big bad blunder.
