Jan-27-07		Resignation Trap: Harlow B. Daly (1883-1979) had a chess career that lasted 75 years. For more information click here: http://chessmaine.net/chessmaine/20... .

Oct-28-07		Resignation Trap: Daly was a terror in simultaneous exhibitions when masters visited Boston. When Jacques Mieses made a visit in December 1903, he lost to Daly twice in three days. Here is the second loss, which seems appropriate for this time of year, as it features the line now known as the Halloween Gambit: Jacques Mieses - Harlow Bussey Daly Boston Simul, December 12, 1903 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.Nxe5 Nxe5 5.d4 Nc6 6.d5 Nb8 7.e5 Ng8 8.Bc4 Bb4 9.0-0 Bxc3 10.bxc3 Ne7 11.d6 Ng6 12.Qh5 Qh4 13.Qxh4 Nxh4 14.dxc7 Nc6 15.Ba3 b6 16.f4 Na5 17.Bd5 Bb7 18.Bxb7 Nxb7 19.f5 g6 20.e6 Nxf5 21.exf7+ Kxf7 22.g4 Rac8 23.gxf5 Rxc7 24.Rae1 Nc5 25.c4 Rg8 26.Kh1 Rcc8 27.fxg6+ Kxg6 28.Re3 Ne6 29.Rg3+ Kh5 30.Rf5+ Rg5 31.Rgxg5+ Nxg5 32.c5 Kg4 33.Rd5 Re8 34.Rxd7 Re2 35.Rd4+ Kf3 click for larger view White to play 36.h4 Kg3 37.Rd3+ Nf3 38.Rxf3+ Kxf3 39.cxb6 axb6 40.c4 Rxa2 41.Bd6 Rc2 42.Bc7 b5 43.c5 Rxc5 0-1
