Jun-30-08  refutor: powerful display by boleslavsky
Aug-10-13  jerseybob: Bronstein enters the fantasy zone with 15.0-0-0 and 16.e5; Boleslavsky stays rooted in reality and wins handily.
Dec-19-13  zydeco: Why not 14.Ng4?

  perfidious: <zydeco>: The position after 14.Ng4 Bxg4 15.Bxg4 Bxc3 16.Qxc3 Nxe4 looks more dangerous for White's king than Black's, despite appearances.

  plang: An early unsuccessful version of the Averbakh variation before the nuances had been worked out (an early Nf3 and Be2 delayed). Boleslavsky identified 13 Nh2? as already being the decisive error recommending instead 13 Na4..Qc7 14 Nd4 with counterchances.

<perfidious: <zydeco>: The position after 14.Ng4 Bxg4 15.Bxg4 Bxc3 16.Qxc3 Nxe4 looks more dangerous for White's king than Black's, despite appearances.>

Boleslavsky gave 15..Qxb2.

Certainly not one of Bronstein's better efforts but it reminds us that Boleslavsky was also a pioneer of the Kings Indian.
