Jun-09-14  GumboGambit: Talk about a win-win; not only did Max trap Schurigs King, but also tricked his Queen into cleaning up his place. That back rank is spotless!

Aug-07-19  Cheapo by the Dozen: 7... Qf3+ is such an obvious win that I have to wonder whether this was a real game. But Schuring does have 12 games in the database, so I presume he was a real person ...
Aug-07-19  Cheapo by the Dozen: Hmm. All 12 of Schurig's games are losses. But a couple have an explicit tournament cited, and I'm guessing a lot of the others are confirmed tournament games as well.
