Sep-15-04 D Przepiorka vs Reti, 1911 
| |
| lnlver: Black is going to win another pawn, and will have decisive kings side and queens side pawn advantages. There shouldn't be any problem winning this game. I'd take it every day. |

Aug-09-04 NN vs W Curran, 1876
| |
| lnlver: What's the story behind this game? Was it from a match by Curran against people from Michigan? If so, why was it played in Pennsylvania? Maybe it was played via telegraph. |

Aug-04-04 E Raaste vs B Nickoloff, 1986
| |
| lnlver: White's 15th and 16th moves where he abadons the kingside with his pieces don't win any awards. |

Jul-14-04 Otto vs von der Lasa, 1839
| |
| lnlver: Is white actually Otto Maton, the famous chess playing machine? Because the moves sure seem artificial. :) |

Jul-13-04 Robert James Fischer
| |
| lnlver: I'm lucky to have Fischer's 'My 60 Most Memorable Games'. At the time, was he the strongest 12 year old player in chess history? He finished in a tie for 3rd at the Brooklyn Chess Club's Championship in 1955; he was born in 1943. I can't recall any kids playing at the grandmaster ... |

Jul-02-04 B Vladimirov vs Z Doda, 1967
| |
| lnlver: It's not too hard to find. When you see that if white doesn't check on the next move, black mates on the back rank (ignoring white's pawn moves). That leaves three checking moves with the queen and one with the rook. |

Jun-20-04 B McCamon vs B Carlier, 1993
| |
| lnlver: If 37 ... h4 then 38 Qf3 to deliver check on g4 with the same outcome. |

Jun-15-04 S Pencil vs G Goltsoff, 1976
| |
| lnlver: I don't have any 'S' pencils; mine are all HB.
Why can't I ever get stuck with an opponent like this? :( |
