JimmyVermeer: I remember once reading that no 2 games in this database are exactly the same, but I beg to differ. This game is the same as T Angermann vs M M Mueller, 1994

JimmyVermeer: Why is it when I click on "find similar games" nothing comes up? Isn't M Mosquera vs D Canda, 2004 similar enough?

JimmyVermeer: Canda didn't learn from Suhin vs Mirosnitsenko, 1979 Exactly the same mistake.

JimmyVermeer: Phony Benoni, the link you posted only shows part of the book. But I take your word for it.
I also agree with your comment about common sense, however, there have been many occasions where players played contrary to common sense. See my comments on A Ushenina vs S Matveeva, ...

JimmyVermeer: I think this game didn't happen, at least not the way it says here. Olimpbase shows the game TheAlchemist refers to (Final A, round 2 of 14). I think Dusko Pavasovic and Meng-Kong Wong only faced each other once during the event. Slovenia defeated Singapore 3-1 in this round.
