Instead of Nc3??? Qc3! and black resigned! This game was played also by Van der Wiel, John vs. Danner, George in 1982; according to www.chesslab.com Move for move, an identical game. Does anyone know the Round and what was at stake for these gentlemen, Stripunsky and Granda Zuniga,J.? Probably a coincidence? Puzzled by which posts are off-topic, nothing in the original post was related to computer chess...oh I see, you were analyzing it on your computer...
