Game 4821342

This morning, I've linked this game in the 75 pages thread : CHECKMATE in under 20 moves. But I got the feeling that a dedicated thread for Horse Ballet was missing... Sorry for posting twice the same subjet.

Great gaame to play over- makes you feel glad you know the game of chess.

Here's a nice game for knight shenanigans.

White is the Brazilian GM Henrique Mecking, Black is the British / Armenian IM Mike Basman.

The fun starts with 22. ... Rxe4

I got very confused there heinzkat - I fixed my post 30 seconds after I entered it, but not fast enough to stop you adding a reply first!
