Apr-22-10		jerseybob: Even though Reshevsky was primarily a c4/d4 player, every once in a while he'd haul out his e4, and games like this make me wish he'd done it more often.

Apr-23-10		Petrosianic: Well, he played a lot of e4 in this tournament because he was preparing to use it at the Sousse Interzonal.

Apr-24-10		jerseybob: As far as I can see from this data base, he used e4 once at Sousse, against Matulovic, a nice win.
