May-09-07		I3illieJoe: According to Kasparov, in OMGP III, in the part where he analyzes the Polu variation, Bereziuk played this game 'a la Morphy'.

May-09-07		SwitchingQuylthulg: Yep, a beautiful game by Bereziuk. It's not often you see two knights sacrificed on the same empty square! The game was all the more 'Morphy' because, just like the American star, Bereziuk was quite young when he played it. Anyone know what happened to him, did he just abandon chess? Only one game by him in Chessgames database...
