Jul-25-05		Resignation Trap: Botvinnik in his personal notebook on Bronstein: "Like my game with Alekhine 1938, led to a Queen's Gambit Accepted, with an energetic combination cleared the center (!), maintained a good position, won with the first trick! On the 33rd move. Very accurate. But the opponent played the opening feebly." See: Botvinnik vs Alekhine, 1938 .
