Triptolemus: Splendid double exchange sac 2 Rs for 2 Ns from Nigel v Wang. If Q+N is usually a dangerous combination, Q+N+N proves deadly! In Krush v Kovalyov, on move 27, the comp. suggests the synapse-meltingly odd pawn sacrifice ..h6, to decoy the Be3 away. Then 28 Bxh6 cxb4 29. axb4 Qb6+ |

Triptolemus: Alekhine notes for move 31, 'the game was played the day after I finally emerged from the Odessa Cheka where my person was for a while in stark danger of being mated and I therefore was still somewhat tired.' |

Triptolemus: Moran's biography says this was a blindfold simul. After 32 ...Rd6, 'Alekhine, happy as a child, announced a win'. |
