May-08-05    aw1988: Here I am again, accompanied with another amusing anecdote. This was played at a Vancouver Open. The game went 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 f5?. I shook my head and said 'Let's see if you can really use those three pawns to your advantage'. I lost in 13 moves. Aug-19-05    Hidden Skillz: have u won any games? May-08-08    brankat: Happy birthday Mr.Yerhoff!
