  Domdaniel: I suspect that Black didn't *really* write down 20...Rd8 and mail it to his opponent.

Just a hunch.

Oct-05-11  Robed.Bishop: Not surprisingly, this is Boyle's only game in the CG database. The quality of this game reminds me of others on the site.

  Phony Benoni: Looking at the game ID numbers around this one, it appears that a collection of games using the Italian Opening was loaded, irrespective of quality. There is a similar large block of King's Gambits, some of which are truly horrendous.
