Sep-23-06		Bob726: no one kilibtzed to this game?

Sep-24-06		fgh: What does Fritz think of this position? It might be interesting :-)

Sep-24-06		RookFile: Reshevesky must not have been feeling well that day. He 'owned' Bisguier, 13 wins to 3, with some draws, throughout his career.

Sep-24-06		RonB52734: It's a shame that games like this get weighted in the database just like real games. Sure, it's understandable in the last round of a grueling tournament that a game that doesn't matter will result in an agreed draw. But there ought to be a way to keep this kind of game from factoring into, for example, the Opening Explorer. Games that no reasonable person would consider to have been fought to a drawn position should be in some backwater of the database such as "novelty games."

Oct-25-06		rsl: This game inspired me to always offer the draw after playing 1. Nf3!!, a move which absolutely blew me away!

Feb-26-07		Phony Benoni: Relax, folks; the game actually lasted 23 moves. I'm submitting a full game score.
