Feb-11-04 Pillsbury vs Magana, 1902
| |
| boneheadcharles: The Fred Defense. However, can you actually call it a defense? After 2. exf5 the diagonal to the king is open. All you need is a bishop (or queen) over there and Black's life is over. |

| |
| boneheadcharles: White is playing as a team and they still miss a very good move. After 36. f5?, why not 37. exf5e.p.+! to check the king with a pawn and discover an attack on the black queen with the bishop on g4? Then, this could be played as 37. ... ♔xf6 38. ♗xe6 ♔xe6. |
