May-13-06		offramp: A correspondent of Edward Winter at http://www.chesshistory.com/winter/... has drawn attention to a similar game: Hermann Freyer – Graf von Finkenstein Leipzig, 1 December 1900 Ruy López 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bb5 a6 4 Ba4 d6 5 d4 exd4 6 Nxd4 Nge7 7 Bg5 Bd7 8 Nc3 h6 9 Be3 Nxd4 10 Bxd7+ Qxd7 11 Bxd4 Nc6 12 Nd5 O-O-O 13 O-O Qe6 14 f3 Rg8 15 c4 g5 16 Bc3 Bg7 17 Bxg7 Rxg7 18 b4 g4 19 b5 gxf3 20 Rxf3 Ne5 21 Rf2 Ng4 22 Rf4 Rdg8 23 bxa6 b5 24 a7 Kb7 25 Rb1 Ne5 26 Rxb5+ Kc6 27 Rb8 Rxg2+ 28 Kh1 Rxa2 29 Qb1 Resigns. It looks like someone has deliberately copied an old game. The thing is that they probably thought they would NEVER be found out!

Feb-09-12		blazerdoodle: Two unknown guys passed into history with a made up game tagged on to them? lol. Now, perhaps they did play the game out, and in the tourney and he thought he had a shot at the end adding those extra moves. Of course, if so, he found out otherwise. The things some do to desperately become immortal.
