Max Euwe wrote an interesting and difficult to read book called the Chess Master vs. Chess Amateur. As you know this book doesn't make it on my recommended list, but I keep getting called back to it by very helpful folk. So I go back.Game 7 deals with the concept of the Premature Attack. And is the Patzer's Attack. But ECO has a code for it nontheless. Interestingly enough, this concept of speed rules has been largely overthrown at the grandmaster levels. This is probably due to the massive amount of examination that Fritz can bring to any position. Fundamental beliefs of bad and good, pretty much get tossed out. You examine the tableau for ideas, see if they are just simply defeated, and move on. Centapawn weaknesses are meaningless in the face of suprise, aggression, and good research.
My best friend, does not yet fall into these problems. I suspect that this will happen when he enters "god" mode. He hasn't quite yet had the win to do so yet. But I am expecting it any day now. We aren't playing for a week, just so he can enjoy the being in the thousand club for awhile, and accepts that he belongs. This week, speed chess at the mall!
At anyrate, here are a couple of interesting versions of the game. In the more useful format of PDF. One is the game from Euwe's book with an alternate ending by me, that seems a little more human. (Nobody turns down the queen in to win). And a game by the US Super GM Nakamura.

if you hunt around you can find the entire Euwe books games in pgn format. try googling Euwe + cbh etc.. There is a fellow who plays for $ in Harvard Square as white will play this attack and as black plays the Caro Kahn. Regardless whether you think it is sound , if one is unprepared it is very dangerous.
Also head on over to the mall and get your self a little magnetic analysis chess set so you can play along with your books. Playing through games by the pool gives me great pleasure.
