Feb-13-10		Poisonpawns: Here is a game I played against west in 2006. I will never forget, he would not shake my hand after the game. I thought that wasn`t cool. When he had beat me a few years before, I shook his hand and went over the game.Anyway this game was inspired by the famous Korchnoi vs Kanel. I was intrigued with early h3 in the dutch at the time.So I gave it a whirl against NM West.
