| Madjesoomalops: To be honest, I saw it coming. But then, I knew it: Marshall vs Burn, 1900 |

| Madjesoomalops: @ DanielBryant
Why should stimulants be banned? I prefer Jon Speelman: ´If any product exists that enhances chessplaying performance, its use should be compulsory.´ |

Dec-01-07 T Krabbe vs Nieuwhuis, 1959
| |
| Madjesoomalops: TK (me) did not resign but played on for some 20 moves.
White indeed has no better than the small advantage he keeps after 8.Nxc3 - but in the position after 6.Qd5, quite a few Black players have resigned. |

Jul-22-06 A Gibaud vs F Lazard, 1924
| |
| Madjesoomalops: The moves and date as given here, are wrong. The game went 1.d4 d5 2.b3 Nf6 3.Nd2 e5 4.dxe5 Ng4 5.h3 Ne3 (0-1) and it was a coffeehouse game, 'played around 1922'. See http://www.xs4all.nl/~timkr/records...

| |
| Madjesoomalops: <25...e4+> Better is 25...d4 with the sort of long-range tactics at which computers are not really good. Two possibilities: a) 26.♘c4 ♖f4 27.♘xd6+ cxd6 28.♔h3 ♔c7 29.♘xf3 ♗xf3 30.♖g1 ♗xd1 31.♖xg8 ♗xc2 and |

Feb-22-05 Singers vs T Krabbe, 1958
| |
| Madjesoomalops: All the books copy each other and give the 4-move version. It's true I'm one of the very few to give the correct version, but not the only one - I'm in the company of Gibaud and Lazard. Again, see my 'records' page. |

Feb-18-05 Movsesian vs T Krabbe, 2000
| |
| Madjesoomalops: I played (less brilliantly, but more soundly) 18...Raxc8, but it seems the automatic board went wrong. I did lose, but after 20 or 30 more moves. |
