Here is my best game, a crushing defeat for the Grob Attack. I believe my opponent was influenced by one of the recent monographs on the Grob -- I just followed a line recommended in BCO & MCO, my only sources on the opening:

White: Pressnall, Wayne/2025
Black: Roper, Martin/2320
Event: Golden Knights Corr. (Semi-Finals)
Date: 1996.05.10
Opening: A00: Irregular Openings
Result: 0-1
