  Whitehat1963: Love this old miniature that features the Opening of the Day. Poor NN.
Nov-27-05  Chopin: A very clever queen sacrifice to force a mate.

  AnalyzeThis: Black didn't know this, but his game was already resignable after 6. Bg5.
Dec-03-09  officeplayer: G Minchev vs D Miraschiev, 1986
Dec-03-09  gtgloner: Black's 7th move illustrates a point I have read in many a chess book... DON'T GRAB!!!
Dec-03-09  tivrfoa: xD trap gallery!

  kevin86: It looks like white wants the queen back-and he comes up with something better!

  GreenFacedPatzer: Ouch!

10 moves! Even _I_ don't lose that fast. What's frightening is that Black's play doesn't look all that unreasonable... and then it's just over.

  Bishoprick: Poor NN! The things that keep happening to him! Would like to see him/her win just one game, instead of just being a victim :-(
Dec-03-09  ChessValley: Bishoprick, NN is not really a complete loser. He won 39 games in www.chessgames.com, e.g. Philidor vs NN, 1790
Dec-03-09  WhiteRook48: if 7...Nxd4 then 8 Bxe7

  hedgeh0g: I'm all lost in the supermarket. I can no longer shop happily.
Dec-03-09  dannymay: I'm new here, but I notice that this NN guy loses every game, kind of like the Washington Generals basketball team that ALWAYS loses to the Harlem Globetrotters.

  Bishoprick: Thank you, ChessValley! Very happy to know it. I absolutely had never seen him win one.
Dec-07-09  ChessValley: And what about NN's performance in Alekhine vs NN, 1925 ?

To Alekhine's defence: he was blindfolded, playing 25 people simultanuously.

May-24-11  TheTamale: You know, I've never had great luck with the Scotch Game, but it seems to be like kryptonite to NN.
