Jan-10-05  binyamin18: why not 11. Bxe6!
Jan-10-05  notsodeepthought: 15 B:d7+ (or most moves instead of the idiotic Qe3+) would also do nicely.
Jan-10-05  themindset: i'm guessing that marshall resigned in disgust with himself... because there's no clear win for black here.
Jan-10-05  Everett: Perhaps Marshall participated in the rare, simul-blindfolded-handcuffed-drugged events that pop up now and then ;)
May-28-06  Whitehat1963: Dr. Chilton, I presume.

  GrahamClayton: Is the refusal to capture an opponent's Queen with check "the worst possible move" of all?

  wwall: The rest of the moves are supposed to be 20.Kd3 Bc5 21.Rhb1 Rxb1 22.Rxb1 Bb6 23.Nd4 Ke7 24.Ne6 g6 25.e4 Nh6 26.h3 Nf7 27.Kc4 Ne5+ 28.Kb5 a6+ 29.Kxa6 Nxc6 30.dxc6 Kxe6, and Black won.
Feb-15-14  morfishine: What was Marshall thinking? Winning instantly is 15.Bxd7+ Kad7 16.Qa4+ and White picks up the "terrible" Black Knight anyways and now has the Black Queen tossed in as bonus
Aug-27-15  RookFile: An off day for Marshall. Almost anybody else would have played 15. Bxd7+ without thinking, but he marched to the beat of a different drummer.
May-25-17  morfishine: "Error" Marshall
