Kibitzer's Corner
Jun-18-15  zydeco: Geller must have been thrilled with the opportunity he was given (13.Nb5?!) to sacrifice the exchange.
Jul-14-22  cehertan: Whoops. A rare instance where a Geller attack fell flat on its face. On a comical note I just accidentally asked stockfish to analyze the starting position. The verdict? The English Opening is slightly better than 1.e4!
Jul-14-22  cehertan: Oops that comment was meant for Geller vs Flohr.
