Shamtesticle: Who is this kid, man? These games
are unbelievable! Actually, after
21...gxh4?, I was looking at 22 Rxg8+
Nxg8 23 Qg2 Ng6 24 Bxf7! when Black
really gets raped. His knights can't
connect! I guess there's often more
than one way to win. |

Shamtesticle: What an amazing game from young
Hikura! He plays Baroque! I wonder if
he's been studying Benjamin's games
while nobody is looking, thinking
that all he does is ream with Fritz.
This is a fascinating game. I'm not
sure why Felgaer sacced the exchange
on move 25. |

Shamtesticle: Yeah, I wondered about 50...axb4 also, and finally concluded that White should post his knight on C5 in

place for the Black bishop would be
on e8 or c8, and c8 would be UGH!
Because White's King ... |
