Jan-27-08		sneaky pete: Carel van den Berg vs Jan Hein Donner, Veenendaal 1955, had (after the same first 11 moves) continued 11... Be7 12.e5 b4 13.exf6 bxc3 14.Nxe6 1-0. 11... b4 was of course not a prepared improvement. Donner, with his legendary self-conscious attitude towards the rest of the universe, had erased the earlier game from his memory.

Mar-01-09		FSR: Well, you can hardly expect their second game in this line to be a marathon like the first one.

Sep-17-12		Olavi: Isn't this the game after which Donner said, yes it looked somehow familiar but I thought that was because your moves were of classic beauty.

Oct-23-12		newzild: 13. Bxa6 would make a great puzzle - maybe for a Thursday.

Oct-10-13		Abdel Irada: Mighty obliging of Donner to play 11. ...b4, more or less forcing the winning knight sac that Van den Berg already had in mind. ∞

Apr-12-14		sneaky pete: Black could have spoiled everyone's fun by playing 12... Qc5 click for larger view when it's not clear if and how white can win.
