 | | Honza Cervenka: Very nice attack! |
|
| Jan-08-03 | | drukenknight: what about 16 f5 clearing a square for the B much like in that Fischer/Gligoric game? |
|
| Dec-17-04 | | Knight13: 23... Bxg3! is beautiful! |

| Apr-09-09 | | YoungEd: Only a kornel of truth in Havasi's game. |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | sfm: Guess White should have tried 22.Nf1. |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | Thickasabrick31: Why doesn't white play 24. cxb7+ ? Then 24. ... Kb8 25. Nxf3 gxf3. And after 26. Red1 white might be able to stay afloat. |

| Apr-09-09 | | wordfunph: Analysis by Fritz 9:
1: Kornel Havasi - Gyula Breyer, Budapest (Hungary) 1917
click for larger viewAnalysis by Fritz 9:
1. = (0.00): 24.Ba6 Bh2+ 25.Kf1 Bf4 26.Bxb7+ Kb8 27.Ba6+ Ka8 28.Bb7+ Kb8 2.  (-10.90): 24.Re4 Rh1+ 25.Kxh1 Bxf2 26.cxb7+ Kb8 (, 09.04.2009)
24.Rxb7 was a disaster, Havasi missed 24.Ba6! which equalized.. |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | TheTamale: Great nerve by Black--leaving his own king a sitting duck while he conducts his attack. |

 | | kevin86: I know of 2 particular references to "Brier"-the word in the pun today. In the Disney Movie0SONG OF THE SOUTH,a part story is called "Brer Rabbit and the Brier Patch" The second is that the Canadian men's curling championship is called "The Brier". |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | Calli: A brier patch is patch of thorny, prickly plants that is hard to get through without getting scraped up - just like Breyer's web of tactics in this game. |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | mworld: white totally neglected his kingside in favor of a slow attack... |

 | | playground player: Black's play nicely illustrates General Forrest's maxim: "Git thar fust with the mostest men." (Lucullus was the first great practitioner of that aspect of the art of war, but he got little credit during his lifetime and not much more since his death.) |

My hunch is that the rabbit got there first... |

| Apr-09-09 | | Riverbeast: What a thoroughly brutal b*tt-kicking |
|
| Apr-09-09 | | whiteshark: Attacks on opposite wings, always full of enjoyable suspense. |

| Apr-09-09 | | shahjinan: well in the end it seems they should have putQh2# instead of Qh2 +:) |

| | Once: <shahjinan: well in the end it seems they should have putQh2# instead of Qh2 +:)> Except that 30...Qh2+ isn't mate! White has 31. Kxg4 Rdg8+ 32. Kxf3 33. Rh3#. |

| Apr-09-09 | | WhiteRook48: don't get what the pun means |

 | | Breunor: The song from Disney's 'Song of the South' comes from the Uncle Remus stories. It has been a famous story. For instance, it is used in the Board of the Rings, the parody of Lord of the Rings, when Frito (Frodo) escapes from the Pig Riders (ringwraths) at the pardoy of the Fords of Bruinen. Frito uses the brer Rabbit to as told by Uncle Remus. |
