So were you planning on giving Michael Jefferies credit for this or not?

[EDIT: I'm glad to see you went back in and edited it so you have now. It's my favorite chess video]

Well for your information, some ppl do.

I saw the traps on youtube too before I saw this article. Looking at Michael Jeffries games r also helpful. He gives good analysis.
