I really hate posts like that. On the other hand, this is a very beautiful combination, and I am grateful to you for bringing it to my attention. So I forgive you. This time.

Apr-17-08  Resignation Trap: For this game, Petrov received an engraved cup in the memory of Aron Nimzowitsch , for the most beautiful game of this tournament by a Latvian player versus a foreign master.
