| akiba82: In 1903 the only chess playing computers were faux mechanical devices with chessmasters concealed inside. Gunsberg and Pillsbury among others, were said to have operated such devices. |

| DeepBlade: Such nice play by Black!
If White takes with the King, Ne4 forks
If White takes with the Queen, Nd3 fork
This is what I call a ''sound'' sacrifice! |

| dakgootje: lol nice game...but a lil too long, maybe white would have done a better if he/she resigned like after 1. ...e5...;-) |

| Alex S.: <<CitricAcid13: 1. ...e5 is not sound.>> Whilst this is a common perception throughout many members of the chess community, I have to disagree. 1...e5 is fine, if followed up correctly. I think the problem people have with 1...e5 is they've entered very sharp tactical games, which they've lost, and so have condemned the opening. |

Arguing about that is the same as saying. "Hey maybe you should resign with white before you try to play 1. e4 or something else |

| Peligroso Patzer: <Yuri54: My question is who is NN? ... some computer or what?> Here is NN's official CG.com biography. By the way, as a perusal of NN's Notable Games will reveal, he holds the distinction of being the only player to my knowledge who can claim wins over Philidor, De Riviere and Alekhine! <The abbreviation "NN" is used to signify an unknown player, usually an amateur. Although NN is sometimes said to stand for "no name", in fact it is an abbreviation of the Latin 'nomen nescio' which means 'I don't know the name.'> |

| FSR: I tried to recreate this game when I was playing on chessgames.com tonight. (My game started 1.d4 e5?! 2.e4?!) Alas, my opponent played 8.Qxc5?? Nd3+. |

| GrahamClayton: Here is another game where another knight fork was avoided due to resignation: Tal vs K Klaman, 1957 |

| Cercatore: Why resign?
Simply play...
9. Qxf2
??? |

| Manic: <circatore> 9...Nd3+. Whichever piece takes a knight wins the queen |
