Apr-23-18  Delboy: Excellent choice for Game of the Day with wonderfully resourceful play by black (though the first ten moves or so are not exactly the sort of stuff great games are made of)

Apr-23-18  yureesystem: Strange game, Blackbunre was winning and he played very bad and lost. Maybe too much whiskey.
