Jun-03-05		InspiredByMorphy: Although black is up a pawn, and the position may be very defendable, white is far from lost after 10.Qe2 Nf6 11.Kd1 threatening 12.Ng5 .

Jun-04-05		Jaymthetactician: Wait a minute?! CHESSGAMES! Polerio was DEAD in LONG before 1800! Can someone change this to the correct date?

Jun-20-05		deadvlsdy: Is this game unfinished?

Jun-20-05		mymt: <deadvlsdy:> this was played before the days when the whole game was recorded & castling was invented.For more info click on the players names & look at other games they have played with the "little baloons" beside them.

Nov-24-06		Jonathan Sarfati: Under modern rules, Black would be in trouble after 6. 0-0. 5... Bb6 is correct.

Sep-19-07		wolfmaster: This must be the only portion of the ancient game they could recover. Polerio probably went on to win.

Sep-05-08		Soinne: 11... h6, <InspiredByMorphy>?

Oct-06-08		just a kid: 6.cxd4 not too smart.

What's wrong? Mere old draw. Attack of Black's fails.
