Oct-28-04		aw1988: An intriguing variation.

Nov-19-04		aw1988: 5. b4... the Evans-Traxler???

Nov-19-04		azaris: White failed to stop the Press.

Nov-19-04		aw1988: That has to be the worst pun i've ever heard...

Nov-24-04		IMlday: An amusing postscript: When Shaun Press was later 'randomly' chosen for urinalysis drug testing and just said no, Dr. Gajadin cast the deciding vote to cancel all Shaun's games from the Olympiad.

Nov-24-04		ughaibu: How did Marnoff Mirlony get on?

Dec-18-07		Honza Cervenka: <aw1988: An intriguing variation.> 5...d5 avoids any troubles for black easily here.

Jan-17-08		FSR: <IMlday: An amusing postscript: When Shaun Press was later 'randomly' chosen for urinalysis drug testing and just said no, Dr. Gajadin cast the deciding vote to cancel all Shaun's games from the Olympiad.> Evidently the concept of "conflict of interest" is unknown to Dr. Gajadin.

Jan-17-08		FSR: <Honza Cervenka 5...d5 avoids any troubles for black easily here.> After 5.d4, d5! is correct, when White's best is to bail out with 6.dxc5! dxc4 7.Qxd8+ leading to an equal ending. (Other sixth moves score very badly for White.) Since 5.b4 helps White's development less than 5.d4, d5! ought to be a strong response to it, too, as Honza Cervenka said.
