Feb-11-06		PhilFeeley: One of Andersson's brilliancies, analyzed by Jan Przewoznik and Marek Soszynski in their book How to Think in Chess.

Dec-29-06		playground player: Adolf Anderssen is not appreciated today as much as he should be. Look what happens when he moves 12. Nxg2--the whole roof falls in on his opponent! A beautiful example of what chess used to be, before computers messed it up.

May-06-07		wolfmaster: Saalbach to you, Anderssen:)
