Feb-20-07  outplayer: Didn't White resign soon in this game?
Feb-20-07  Dres1: I really dont think so... white got dominated cleanly during the middlegame.. and now it is a calm position with black being 2 pawns up.. A strong player will not have any trouble converting, and plus.. im sure she was just about sick of being manhandled like that.
Feb-18-24  King.Arthur.Brazil: The king tried to find something with: 24...Rxf4 25. gxf4 Ne4. Maybe, a final with ♘+2♙ x♖...
Feb-18-24  mel gibson: I couldn't see anything spectacular to play.
