| Honza Cervenka: Cool game. Of course, black cannot play 11...fxg5? for 12.Ne5+ Ke7 13.Re8# nor 13...Bxd6? for 14.Be8+ Kf8 15.Bg6#. |

| Honza Cervenka: And if 11...Nxe4, then 12.Ne5+ Ke7 (12...fxe5 13.Be8#) 13.Re8+ Kd6 14.Nf7+ Kc5 15.Be3+ Kxb5 16.Rxf8 and white wins. |

| tpstar: <suenteus po 147> Maybe 6. dc Qxd1+ 7. Kxd1 f5 8. Nd6+ Bxd6 9. cxd6 Kd7 10. Bf4 making Black work to regain the Pawn. These ... dxe4 lines give White a good game. |

| SneechLatke: An excellent example of turning a development advantage into a desicive attack, even in an endgame. |

| Ingolf: Everyone agreed this was the best game of the Buenos Aires olympiad, but no brilliancy prize was awarded because some kind of war broke out during the tournament. |

| farrooj: I think one of the hardest things in chess is playing without a queen in an open position, it takes technique no? |
 |

| SneechLatke: <farrooj> Agreed! |

| Rocafella: <farooj> Definately! I always make sure that when I am trading queens I have better piece development and better control of the centrum. Otherwise I'm messed! |

| mannetje: <<p8triot>> If one would take a mere look at the position that arises after your line 12.Be8+(??) Kf8 13.Bh5+ it would be clear that 13...Bxd8 kind of takes the string out of it, don't you think? |

| PhilFeeley: Where did black go wrong so quickly? Are 5...Nd7 and 6...Nxc5 too passive, considering his lack of development? The attack beginning with the queen trade is just brilliant and the fact that it comes so early is so impressive, it makes me want to avoid the French defense in the future. |

| Manic: It's a shame that there is not more kibitzing about this magnificient game. It's an amazing combination, which has also proven to be sound too. |

| An Englishman: Good Evening: 4...dxe4 looks very bad. 4...Nc6, keeping the tension in the center, awaiting the transposition to the main line with 5.exd5, and keeping the Nd2 on its relatively passive square, must be better. Still, it's amazing that Pleci didn't need much more than this to whip up such an attack. |

| badenbaden: A. Alekhine: "Mis Mejores Análisis"
5. ...Nd7?!
<Permitiendo que las blancas obtengan la ventaja de la pareja de Alfiles.> 6. ...Nxc5?
<El error decisivo. Ahora asistiremos a una ejecución del estilo de Morphy.> 11.Rd8!!
<Una concepción realmente brillante, que hace de esta partida una "perla" del Congreso de Buenos Aires. Las dos piezas atacadas ahora son inmunes.> |
