Feb-20-06		dakgootje: Does someone have a blunder collection? If so this game with blacks last move especcially would nicely fit in it

Apr-21-06		Landman: It's 9...h6 that's the real blunder. Black blitzed out the opening moves - one too many as it turns out. 13...Be6 isn't the strongest but it's all hopeless by that point. Despite appearances, the final position is not an immediate mate. In fact it's twisted sort of challenge - Black to move and make at least ten more moves without getting mated.
