Dec-22-13 V Ciocaltea vs J Kozma, 1963 
| |
|
Cibator: Once again, Black chokes on the old bone-in-the-throat (a White P at h6) coupled with the thrust e6 clearing the way for an inrush of White pieces. For another example see: P N Lee vs I Radulov, 1965 .

| |
|
Cibator: <BOSTER>: The game dates from 1963. First postings about it here were in 2004, indicating it was put on the database in that year or just before, ie about 40 years after it was played. That was the basis for my previous comment.

Cibator: Winner of the British Championship in 1964 - but so far, not one of his games from the event has been posted here! Extraordinary.

Cibator: Ha! <Nosnibor> got in just in front of me with his correction. On the main topic here: I wonder how many other player-conflations and/or mis-identifications are still floating around? I've spotted two or three on this site without even trying.

| | Jun-26-13 A Ludgate vs J Littlewood, 1971
| |
|
Cibator: Round 3, I see, so not one of those perfunctory games one sometimes sees in the closing stages of an event, where there's little or nothing at stake. Most likely it has to do with the fact that Ludgate was rated about 150-200 points below his opponent, and would have been ...

| | Jun-22-13 Keres vs F Kuijpers, 1963
| |
|
Cibator: Re the position after Black's 28th: Keres seemed to have a thing for immobilising the enemy Q on its own square by means of a P on the 7th rank in the same file. See J Rejfir vs Keres, 1956 .

| | Jun-12-13 Maczuski vs Kolisch, 1864
| |
|
Cibator: Though it does anticipate the famous denouement of Reti-Tartakower, insofar as a Q-sac at d8 allows a subsequent double-check, this game doesn't have the attractive "two-way" finish of the other, where either the bishop or the rook delivers the mate, according to how Black replies. ...

Cibator: Benzol: Bond himself apparently cherished the notion, but the secrecy surrounding adoptions in the UK prevents any definite conclusion being reached, one way or the other. According to his biographer, Harry Shapiro (in "The Mighty Shadow", pub. 1992), a court action aimed at ...
