Sep-13-04		Knight13: Blunder is 11... Nxg3.

Sep-13-04		Giancarlo: NN has many problems in this game. 1)4..Bxg1. Trading a developed piece for a non-developed piece. 2)9..nh5, again, lack of development. better is 0-0 or even nc6/d6 3)11..nxg3?? Obvious blunder. 4)It's NN, what do you expect?

Sep-13-04		John Doe: The queen is trapped otherwise, so it's the only "saving" move.

Mar-02-05		InspiredByMorphy: If 4. ...Bxg1? was going to be played it should at least been followed by 5. ...d6 .

Oct-20-05		DeepBlade: Bishop's Opening, Lopez Variation looks like an odd opening to me. The Black Queen shouldnt be developed like that, and Black's defence is a real disaster. Greco sets up a nice attack, kudos.

Aug-21-08		TheTamale: Ugh, Greco misses mate in one. 15, Bg5 mate.

Feb-13-09		WhiteRook48: 12. Qf3+ was obvious
