Dec-05-11  AnalyzeThis: This is a very good game by Pillsbury. 13. Nd2 was cute, Maroczy didn't see the point. From that point over, Pillsbury showed good technique in bringing home the win.

Dec-21-18  RookFile: Playing over this game, I was waiting for 11. h4, with sacrificial ideas. Marshall would have played it I'm sure. But Pillsbury was a more classical attacker.
Dec-21-18  RookFile: The knight ending was really no chance for black. Pillsbury had won a nice one with even material at the 1895 Hastings, he was definitely going to win a pawn up!
