Oct-24-04   ConLaMismaMano: Wonderful game! And a very instructive endgame! 28.Rd6! and 31.Qxc6!! were two crucial moves.
Oct-27-04   Gowe: An incredible game played by Ricardi, beatiful mate combination. Very good nice 26. Rd6. It was the winning move.And then the queen sacrifice was perfect and gave the definitely victory to Ricardi. I think Pedersen should resing after the queen's sacrifice.
Nov-18-04   flamboyant: wow... thats a stunning game , beautiful sacrifice!
Dec-10-05   Counterpoint: What a beautiful end position! And extremely bold play by Ricardi.
Dec-10-05   Averageguy: Incredible sacrifice that illustrates that several active minor pieces combined with far advanced pawns is more then a match for a lone queen.
