  Troller: Sadly, Leif Jensen passed away a couple of days ago. He was for many years chairman of the Danish rating committee, while also a strong amateur with a peak elo just shy of 2200. I believe some of his games on cg.com are wrongly attributed to Leif Haugaard Jensen.

Leif - this one - played every edition of the Rilton Cup in Stockholm except 2014-15, a total of around 40.

Jan-07-15  Poulsen: Maybe mr. Haugaard Jensen could help clearing this up - after all there is only 11 games to check.

All these danish Jensen - more than 40 with that surname in this database - mixups are bound to happen.
