White played <51.Nd6 Bd3 52.Nxe4+ Bxe4>, assuming this being a draw. Alas, <53.Kf2 Kf4 54.Ke2 Ke5 55.Ke3 Kd5 0:1> was a win for Black.

Oct-23-05  Calli: <Gypsy> Very funny. Is this Forrest Gumprich? Hey Forrest, patzer is as patzer does. :-)
Oct-23-05  Gypsy: My guess is on Kurt Gumprich.
Jan-04-08  whiteshark: <Gypsy> is right. It's <Kurt Gumprich>, * 21.04.1904 † 15.10.1971

"Gumprich was one of the stronger German postal masters of the 1940s and early 1950s. He won the third section of the Dyckhoff Memorial with 6.5/8 ahead of strong masters including Lucius Endzelins."

May-15-08  whiteshark: I'm curious whether his nickname has been "Gumpy"?
Apr-21-10  wordfunph: Gumpy scalped GM Klaus Darga...he maybe an IM-strength player..
