  fm avari viraf: One of those brevities where Black looses a piece in the opening itself. Everyone of us to be honest must have lost a piece in the opening phase or to say have been a victim of such traps.

  GrahamClayton: Van Den Berg gets the "trifecta" with 10.Qd5, threatening the a8 Rook, e4 Knight and f7 pawn.
