Feb-01-04 | | TrueFiendish: Boy oh boy--didn't he suspect something was up when 2...e5 came out? |
|
Apr-28-04 | | ruylopez900: I don't know, this guy had a pretty weird idea of how to open the game....he could have just not seen it... |
|
Mar-15-05 | | Chessography: LOL, simply ridiculous! I was curious to see what occured in the line 2. h3, when a 3-move game popped up! Obviously, VK didn't read "My First Chess Book" as a toddler ('Fool's Mate') |
|
Oct-08-05 | | AlexanderMorphy: well some players focus way too much on their own position in the beginning and don't expect an attack in the first few moves...however a 3 move mate is not acceptable! |
|
Oct-08-05 | | AlexanderMorphy: I can't believe i wasted a milestone (100th post) ON THIS STUPID GAME! |
|
Nov-11-05 | | hidude: what's with h3 |

 | | FSR: A game for the ages. |
|
Nov-26-05 | | Chopin: Van just might go down in history as one of the worst players. |
|
Jan-13-07 | | Tactic101: LOL! I am just busting a gut seeing how a player can be so stupid to let a such a thing happen to him! |
|
Feb-18-07 | | Rubenus: The only 'real' fool's mate: L Darling vs R Wood, 1983 |
|
Feb-28-07 | | scolley: Believe it or not, I had a postal game from the mid 1970's that was very similar. This one went like this: 1.f4 d5
2.h3 e5
3.fxe5 Qh4+
4.0-1 |
|
Feb-28-07 | | scolley: I won BTW. |
|
Sep-17-07 | | paavoh: Back in high school I played with Black against an over-confident, attack-at-all-costs player:
1. f4 e6 2. g4 Qh4++ 0-1. He just opened with the wrong pawns (chuckle). |
|
Apr-25-08 | | JimmyVermeer: Chopin, I'd say Van Kessel is his last name, and his first name isn't given. Dutch people do that. |
|
Jul-11-08 | | whiteshark: I'd have never guessed 2.h3 as <2.a4> is emphatically the best move. :D |
|
Mar-31-09 | | OnlyBelieve: Well as a Bird player myself, all I have to say is that this is why few of us choose the solemn path of the Bird. There are many traps hidden for both sides. |
|
Nov-01-09 | | JimmyVermeer: It's sort of amusing to see Dutch people screw up the Dutch variation. |
|
Jun-25-12 | | I play the Fred: Guess-the-Move Final Score: van Kessel vs Rensen, 1990. YOU ARE PLAYING THE ROLE OF RENSEN. Your score: -44 (par = 9) IPTF |
|
Dec-25-15 | | whiteshark: I did the <Kessel run> in less than 4 parsecs... |
|
Dec-25-15 | | gabriel25: With variations one has always to look for that check, the opponent's and one's own, I have won mny games through absent mindedness. I dont remember losing one, but perhaps it is poor memory. |

Mar-27-19 | | sea7kenp: This was a Correspondence Game???!!! |
