Melee

We present a remarkable game played recently at a tournament of the Liverpool Chess Club.  Seldom have we seen such a melee on the chessboard, and the diagram below, depicting the position after White's 20th move, should provide ample evidence of the wild nature of the preceding play.

Our club's resident maestro of tactics, Herr Fritz, has kindly provided us with a few observations on the game, which the reader will find incorporated into the score below.
