May-30-06   jackmandoo: I need this explained to me, looks like black has plenty of play.
May-30-06   aw1988: I assume you mean White. Yes, this is puzzling.

  technical draw: <Jilted Rook> Welcome to the site. You're going to have a lot of pun here!
Jun-01-06   AniamL: <Jilted Rook> Think of a worse pun, and I'll obtain a Warren for your arrest. And there's no reason to start a Warren these forums.
Jun-01-06   Jilted Rook: Sorry - I couldn't help myself - just a Filippov the tongue.
Jun-02-06   AniamL: Ah, you've outpunned me, to my Chigorin.

  technical draw: <Aniami> While you were busy making up that last pun I passed you on the Chessbookie game ladder!. Always beware of the passed pun.
Jun-03-06   AniamL: I'd much rather have a passed pun than a bad knight.

  technical draw: The pgn download I have from the official site shows this game ended like it is posted here. Maybe white saw black's elo at move 19 and said, "oh, 2500!, I thought it was 2200. I'll just go and resign now and save us some time."....

  FSR: After 19.b4 Nb7, Black would have both his knights fianchettoed, and the rest would be a matter of technique. Accordingly, White decided to pack it in.
