Feb-21-08  D.Observer: This is supposed to end with a checkmate.
Dec-31-08  WhiteRook48: it already ends with a checkmate. Happy new year everyone.
Jan-14-10  Kareem: why not 6.Q5d..........1-0
Jan-14-10  Alphastar: Funny how black castles and then completely uncastles his king and rook.
Jan-14-10  ChessKnightsOfLondon: Here NN gets his Knight into all sorts of trouble - indeed after the doubled H pawns its hard to find too much play.

Indeed a shocking performance from NN!

Jan-02-11  Owerbart: nice attacking chess by NN

Black played 24...0-0-0 but:

'...some interfering spectator, quibbling about the laws of chess pointed out that 0-0-0 was illegal'

(Black has played 8...0-0)

The reports concludes saying it is a pity someone butted in. Black could perhaps have castled a third time and claimed a draw by repetition.
