| caseyclyde: What’s wrong with 24… Qxe6. If 25. Rxe6, then 25… Rxe6 and white’s queen is pinned and black is up a pawn. |

| ForeverYoung: An alert observation! |

| InspiredByMorphy: <caseyclyde> Good observation! Had Bogart played 23.Rd1 Re8 24.Nf4 black is lost. If 23.Rd1 Rd8 24.Rxd8 Rxd8 25.Nxe6 and black is lost. It was good to see him win anyway though! |

| white pawn: What if 22. Nxg6? |
 |
| Aug-02-04 |
| misguidedaggression: 22.Ng6 is met by 22...Qb4+ and black gets some counterplay after 23.Kf1 hxg6 24.Rxe6+ Kf7
(Notice how 22.Nd3 protects the b4 square.) |

| GufeldStudent: I don't understand. Why f6? She had his ass beat. Just 0-0 would have done the trick, perhaps playing Qb4 first. |

| keypusher: This is kind of foolish, but there is an interesting similarity between this game at move 23 and the final position here: Kasparov vs Anand, 1995 |

| Stonewaller2: <Why f6? She had his ass beat.> Maybe it was like the game my wife, then my fiancee, likes to talk about where she said "after this game is over we can make out" . . . and no, we haven't done that again since we got married . . . played chess together I mean . . . |

| notsodeepthought: <PaulLovric> <frankly my dear, ...> Er - wrong cast. But then again, perhaps Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh played chess too? |

| khense: I saw Joni Mitchell playing in a rated chess tournament years ago. Does anyone know other female celebrities that were semi serious about chess? (I'll bet Betty Davis played the Fried Liver Attack). |

| qwertyu: chaplin looks stronger than bogart |
 |
| Jul-08-05 |
| TheSlid: <chaplin looks stronger than bogart>, as epsilon looks greater than zero. |
 |
| Jul-08-05 |
| Castle In The Sky: I wonder if there was some preagreed rule in this game, such as no one is allowed to castle. |

| kevin86: A strange day for this game;the Florida Keys are threatened by a hurricane---as they were in the movie,KEY LARGO-in which Bogie and Bacall co-starred. A paraphrase of one of Bogie's famous quotes.: "On this ship,excellent performance is considered standard;standard performance is considered substandard;and substandard performance is not to be accepted." "I kid you not!"-----THE CAINE MUTINY |

| Anatooly Homedepotov: Bacall-Bogart movies:
To Have and Have Not (1945)
Two Guys from Milwaukee (1946)
The Big Sleep (1946)
Dark Passage (1947)
Key Largo (1948)
They were scheduled to make "Melville Goodwin, U.S.A." prior to Bogart's death (The movie's title was changed to "Top Secret Affair" with Kirk Douglas and Susan Hayward). |

| mack: <I saw Joni Mitchell playing in a rated chess tournament years ago.> You wot? I bloody love Joni Mitchell... how did she do? |
 |
| Nov-15-06 |
| GufeldStudent: Also, how could Bogart miss 22.Nc6? |
 |

 |
| WBP: 22. Nxg6 is pretty tough to meet |
 |
| Aug-25-07 |
| Ed Trice: Does anyone know the backdrop for this game? Was it played during the shooting of this movie? Was this when the 19 year old Lauren said to Bogie: "You know how to whistle don't ya? You just put your lips together and blow." |
 |
| Aug-25-07 |
| Jim Bartle: No, Have and Have Not was made years earlier, assuming the date was correct. They had been married six years in 1951. |

| WhiteRook48: maybe black did not want to lose the queen |
