Clement in the thread on the Best game points out his game was not the game in the PGN.
I've been looking at these games for a piece in the next Scottish Chess Mag and
I'm coming across some very odd moves and blatant tactical missed shots.
(much more than normal from you lot and they are coming from some pretty good players.)
Of course a good player can blunder but there are quite a few good players double blundering
which makes me think some of the things never happened.
(.....also did Duncan Walker really play all those bad moves) =)
For example Robert Lagerman - Walter Buchanan Rd9.

DId Walter really play 17...Nxe5 here hanging his Queen and did Robert really
play 18.Nxe5 not taking it. I doubt it but that is what I've got.
