Apr-21-06		keypusher: Wacky hypermodern stuff from the notorious Mr. Deacon...of course I find myself wondering whether the game was ever played.

Apr-21-06		sneaky pete: It's genuine, from the London 1862 international tournament where Deacon and Green finished 11 and 13 in a field of 14. White missed 24.Nxf8++ K moves 25.Qh7#.

Apr-21-06		keypusher: <sneaky pete> Thanks! I used to have Levy and O'Connell's book of chess games 1485-1866 but I think it's in storage somewhere.

Feb-02-09		WhiteRook48: being Valentine stuff and all when you're green isn't that good (sorry for the lame pun)
