| CambridgeSprings1904: In the Wijk ann Zee tournament book, the introduction to this game states, "If you want a lecture on how the Benko Gambit should not be played, you have it right here for free." |

Apr-30-17 Browne vs Miles, 1990
| |
| CambridgeSprings1904: This game is featured in Browne's book "The Stress of Chess". Black's 12th move and White's 13th move are missing from the text. In the introduction to the game, Browne mentions that Miles' style of playing off-beat openings actually helped Browne, as Browne had more ... |

| |
| CambridgeSprings1904: ICC members can view a nice video review of this game by GM Joel Benjamin. Some of White's checks were apparently a clock-management ploy, as there was a 30-second increment added after each move. White apparently missed a few wins, including 47.Qd7+. A very interesting |
