Jul-13-04   Chesspatch: i just want to say, wow, black really knows what he's doing.!!!
Jul-13-04   soberknight: Wonderful game. That sacrifice 18... Nd5!! of a knight for a central pawn with long-term dividends reminds me a lot of Spassky's famous knight sacrifice 16...Nc6!! against Averbakh in 1956. (Tim Krabbe calls it the greatest move ever, but that game was drawn.)
Jul-13-04   themindset: what a shame that this kid died before he got a real chance to shine, but at least the perenyi gambit will live on in his name.
Jul-13-04   platonov: Bela Perenyi was one of the greatest hungarian chess tacticians of all time. He died in a car accident, going to Saloniki in 1988, to see the games of his bridal, the later two-time olympian champion Ildiko Madl (She was the sub to the Polgar-team, Susan, Sofia, Judit).

Not forget that he was only an IM just because he never played for the title but for pleasure, when he needed only one safe draw to achieve a GM-norm, he played as always: bravely with sacrificies...

This is a hungarian page dedicated to him: to see his games, you do not have to know this language...

He has lots of novelties in a wilde range of openings, but the Perenyi-Attack is the most famous (6. Be3 e6 7.g4 against Najdorf). He deserves a book, as his friend, the two-time hungarian champion, Attila Schneider does, who also died at a young age.

Jul-13-04   platonov: I have to mention that he was a ticket-inspector at the Hungarian Railways (as i know), and not a chess-player. Anyway, he had a normal job, and he had not got the whole day to prepare against opponents.
Jul-13-04   Bobo Lo: That was a wonderful game. What a talent!

  kevin86: It is so sad to hear when a young man dies all too soon. When it involves someone in a game that I enjoy so much-it is a double sorrow.

Is it my imagination-or has there been a lot of pawn promotion themes lately?

Jul-13-04   jaime gallegos: thanks platonov, Attila Schneider published a huge chessdatabase that still exists but only in magyar ... see http://chessclinic.kalandor.hu/html...

  ajile: White doesn't have to retreat the Knight and give Black all this counterplay. I like 20.RE2 or 20.RD1. Then if PXN then NXP gives White an active Knight (as opposed to Knight stuck on A3) and active possibilities in the center.
