  Benzol: Bronstein had nurtured the idea of 7.♘c3 for over 50 years but this was the first opportunity he'd had to play it.
Mar-14-08  ughaibu: Interesting. It's a natural looking move. Nice game.

  Benzol: This game is in the book "Secret Notes" and was played in an event called 'The Arnold Cup'. Bronstein's opponent is listed as Ostrup.
Mar-18-08  ughaibu: Interesting. Bronstein played in an Arnold Cup in 1990, but still no sign of his opponent.
May-20-08  Silverstrike: What's a good move for white after 7...d5 ?

  takchess: Is the resignation due to Bronstein having a better end game or is there a different continuation I don't see?

I saw this as a root game to this classic trap of Morphy's. A Queen and a Pawn for a Rook and a Bishop

Morphy vs Anderssen, 1858

Oct-15-11  Everett: Bronstein believes the computer defense 13..Nf2 holds.

He also felt 22.Bg7+ to be a quicker finish.
