May-06-05  soberknight: Unlucky Pick
May-10-08  JimmyVermeer: Polgar's book has Black resigning on the 20th move. The game might have continued:

18 exf6 Kh8 19 Ng5 Bf5 20 Qh6 Bxf2+ 21 Rxf2 Qxf6 22 Bxf6+ Kg8 23 Qg7#

Black's position was hopeless either way.

Jan-25-09  WhiteRook48: Pick picked the wrong opponent if he wanted to win
Mar-12-09  WhiteRook48: Pick the wrong gambit to accept
Jan-24-14  Karpova: The game was played on July 25, 1910, in Vienna (Cafe zur Marienbrücke, Wien I., Rotenturmstraße), and White was Dr. Gustav Heilpern. Black resigned after 20.Qh6.
