Aug-12-12  Robed.Bishop: Without looking at this more than briefly, it appears that white comes out a knight ahead.

I don't have an engine but after this it seems black has the advantage.

Aug-12-12  Everett: For the result to be taken seriously, rapid of, say, 25m/game with 10 secs per move afterward needs to be the minimum time.
Mar-06-14  Xeroxx: Qxe4+ what is white doing?
Mar-06-14  whiteshark: The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science...
May-01-14  Garech: 23...Qxe2+ is winning for black; McShane must have lost on time.
