USCL Game of the Year #10: Smith-Perelshteyn
http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1205715942.shtml


   We continue to mark the [1]U.S. Chess League's countdown to the best
   game of their 2007 season, and this week we take our first look at the
   top 10. That entrant is the battle between Philadelphia IM Bryan Smith
   and Boston GM Eugene Perelshteyn, a Breyer Ruy where the ostensibly
   weaker player started off by outplaying his grandmaster opponent and
   finished things up with a sac and a mop-up operation. (In fact things
   weren't quite so simple, as I'll detail this week in a forthcoming
   ChessVideos program, but it'll do as an initial approximation.) You
   can read more about this game and replay it for yourselves, right
   [2]here.
