Jun-13-11  Graham1973: Strange, what happened to the Kibitz that shows up when this game is found in the database?
Jun-13-11  psmith: Well, there's a kibitz on the game now! (but perhaps what was showing up was the annotations -- represented by a little pencil -- and not a kibitz -- represented by a talk-balloon?)

  FSR: Coffeehouse chess! But what would you expect from Starbuck?

19.Qxc7# was better.

  FSR: Yeah, but 19.Qxc7# would have been a latte better than 19.Rxf7.
Jun-15-11  Graham1973: <psmith>, <FSR>.

No, I think some posted a Kibitz & then deleted it.

I'm hoping to convert a few Starbuck-Judd losses soon...

Jun-16-11  Wyatt Gwyon: Dear Lord. Pure Badassery.
Jun-16-11  Graham1973: Oh they exist, along with a long account of series between Judd and a St Louis chess club.

Thank you for this idea, I plagiarized it and submitted for GOTD under my own name. Many thanks!
