| Jul-14-04 | | ajile: brutal. I think 7.NF3 would be a better move for white. I'm sure a grandmaster would crush this defense with accurate and ungreedy play. |

 | | tpstar: White played the opening on ottopilot, meanwhile every Black piece was baron down on White's King. After clearing several Pawns, White never had time to exploit Black's baron Kingside, then his King was chased und harrassed. In-a the end-a, Black a-wonna, White a-lasa. |

| Oct-22-04 | | aw1988: <ChessTeacher: This is a good game to reflect on the difference between an ill-prepared attack vs. a solid attack. White is running around with just a queen. By move 16, over half of White's moves are with a queen. Sure, White picked up a few pawns, but wasted a lot of time! The move 3. Bxg8 is also a waste of time (2 moves to make the capture (Bc4 & Bxg8) vs. 0 moves for the knight). Contrast, Black's assault starting with 17...Qxf2+ with White's attack. You will find 6 pieces bearing down vs. White's winging around the board with a queen. The only surprise is that White lasted until move 24.> Hello Bruce Pandolfini! :D |

| Mar-18-06 | | DeepBlade: Im gonna show this to my kids to show them the disaster (and to scare them, thus discourage them to play like this), caused by too many useless queenmoves. |
|
| Mar-22-06 | | McCool: This game is funny in a way, because there is a person with the shortest name, versus a person with the longest name! (Unless someone can find a long/shorter name) |
|
| Mar-23-06 | | Jim Bartle: Xu vs. Count Grigory Alexandrovich Kushelev-Bezborodko |
|
| Mar-23-06 | | McCool: <Jim Bartle: Xu vs. Count Grigory Alexandrovich Kushelev-Bezborodko> Do they play a game? |
|
| Mar-23-06 | | Jim Bartle: No, I didn't realize that was part of the challenge. Back to the search function... |
|
| Oct-17-07 | | sambo: Interesting factoid alert:
discounting the "Count" in Count Grigory Alexandrovich Kushelev-Bezborodko (because it's just a title), he has the exact same number of letters in his name (39) as Lionel Adalbert Bagration Felix Kieseritsky |

| Jan-23-08 | | jovack: Black must have felt like a big man mowing down those pawns with his big bad queen.
Otto, here are some things I learned the hard way at age 4 that didn't work: take anything 'free', check the enemy king whenever possible, the queen is the strongest piece so bring it out as early as possible... and if <ChessTeacher> is actually Bruce Pandolfini.. |
|
| Aug-08-09 | | markofthemushroom: Most people can't defend against what White did. I try to do it even if I lose at least I don't get arrested. |

 | | Domdaniel: Textbook stuff, better than the Opera Game as a lesson in development. And not making 10 Queen moves out of 13, or whatever. Arrested development isn't in it. |
|

 | | Phony Benoni: Can you imagine how intimidating it must have been for Plain Ol' Otto to face a monicker like that? |
|
Jul-25-17
 | | FSR: <Phony Benoni> But Otto, unlike his opponent, could boast that his name was a palindrome. He may be the only player featured on this site who could say that! There are no games here by plain old <Ana>, <Anna>, <Bob>, <Eve>, or <Hannah>. Nor does the late Lon Nol, former Prime Minister of Cambodia, have any games here. |
|
Jul-25-17
 | | al wazir: Playing against all those guys at once, poor Otto never had a chance. |

 | | OhioChessFan: I could only find one first name palindrome. Stumbled on a couple last names. I suspect there's many more to be found: Nan Zhao Soos M Bab |
|
| Jul-25-17 | | The Kings Domain: Fun and quite exciting game from the good old days. The pun's quite amusing. :-) |
|
| Jul-25-17 | | thegoodanarchist: "Lasa but not Least" gets honorable mention for GOTD pun. |
|

 | | kevin86: White's king and queen are chased like a chicken with its head off. |
|
| Jul-25-17 | | esteger: Ahh, the 19th, what a century! |
|
| Jul-25-17 | | Pballa: 
click for larger viewI get the feeling white wasn't enjoying his 2 pawn edge here. |
|
| Dec-28-18 | | HarryP: This game is not a big thrill. |
