| Honza Cervenka: 24...Bxd6 would have been better. |

| Geronimo: Très cool! As a 1. d4; 2. c4 player myself this is a brilliant game to show naysayers (how many times have you heard players complain about the "boring" queen's gambit! I think black messes up a bit as early as 9...Nbd7, wasting development tempi for an unnecessary exchange of knights on e5. White is better of with (and ends up with) his light-squarred bishop on e5. Black would have been better castling and/or Ne6 instead. Even developing the queenside with b6 might be justifiable.(?) |

| Chesspatch: what if 27 ... Kg8? 28.Rh8+ Kf7 29.g6+ Ke6... What then? White has no continuation to win. |

| m0nkee1: seems black lost e5.... never tried to defend it.... |
|

| randomsac: Wow! Quite an exciting game. Just as white begins to bust trough the kingside, black starts a queenside attempt. It was just a little too late... Great combination by Kogan |

| kevin86: How about that! A queen sac in both the GOTD and puzzle! |

| Phony Benoni: "Why did you lose that game, Mr. Arencibia?"
"I see nothing ... nothing!" |

 |
| Chessmensch: It must be tough being a GM on the losing end of this one. |

| TheChessGuy: <Phony Benoni> Thank you for the Hogan's Heroes joke! For the uninitiated, this was an American television program from the 1960's. It was a sitcom set in a World War II POW camp! How funny is that!? From Wikipedia, it has been released in a German dub, entitled "Ein Kafig voller Helden," a cage of heroes. Oberst Klink is portrayed as a stereotypical straitlaced, disciplined Prussian, while Oberfeldwebel Schultz is a loosey-goosey, informal Bavarian. |

| arnaud1959: It's funny, after 27.Rxf7+ The Black King can go to 5 different squares. Not one of them is good. |
|
| May-18-09 |
| WhiteRook48: this is a good game to watch, especially after playing a game as Black against an opponent who insists it's legal to move his bishop from b3 to e2. |
|

| Dredge Rivers: Kooooooooooooogaaaaaaaaaaannn! |

| I Like Fish: toooooo many vooooowels... |
|

| Dredge Rivers: <I Like Fish>
That was a reference to the TV Show "Hogan's Heroes". It was supposed to be Colonel Klink yelling.Am I going to have to start annotating all my jokes? I mean, really! |
|

| WhiteRook48: 27...Kg8 28 Rg7+ of course wins |
