Apr-26-07		Autoreparaturwerkbau: After 5...Nc6 white surely had some chance to win the game despite king being unsafe. He must have erred somewhere after that.

Oct-01-09		WhiteRook48: i played 3...Nxf2 and got a winning position once, then lost it, then my opponent blundered away the draw at the last moment

Nov-05-11		Apoline48: On 9 Qh5+ seems OK to me !.

May-15-12		Abdel Irada: I think Gibbins could have saved the game with the simple 12. e6, when after 12. ...xe6; 13. fxe6, f6, white defends f2 with 14. e3. As long as he defends accurately, he should soon have time to complete his development with d2 and contest the f-file, after which the win should be routine.
