Here goes:

NK 1992, Eindhoven
Wit (white):    Jeroen Piket
Zwart (black):  Johan van Mil

(Annotations from "Schaaknieuws", a Dutch chess magazine.  Notable in this
respect is that Johan van Mil is a member of the board of editors.  I have
chosen to rather include a translation instead of replacing the original
text - js.)

 1. Nf3 	 f5
 2.  e4 	fxe4
 3. Ng5 	 d5
 4.  d3		Qd6
 5. Nc3 	 h6
 6. Nb5		Qc6
 7. dxe4  	hxg5 
 8. exd5 	Qd7 
 9. Bxg5 	 a6 
10. Nc3 	 e5
11. Bd3 	Be7 
12. Qf3 	Nf6 
13. Bg6+ 	Kd8 
14.  h3 	Ne8
15. Bxe7+ 	Qxe7 
16. Bxe8 	Kxe8 
17. 0-0-0 	Qg5+
18. Kb1 	Bf5 
19.  g4 	Bg6

21.  h4 	Qf6

23.  h5 	Bf7

25. Ne4 	Qh6
26.  g5 	Qxh5
27. Nc5 	Qh3
28.  f3 	Kf8
29.  b3 	Re8
30. Nxb7 	Qf5
31. Rd2 	Rh3
32. Rf2 	Qf4?

Helemaal fout, want wit heeft nu een grap.
(Completely wrong, as white can use a gag here.)

[ The annotation does not say what the actual gag is here - I suppose
  it falls into the category "obvious", which isn't that obvious
  to me.  However, I came up myself with: 33. Qxf4+ exf4; 34. Rfe2!, which
  threatens to win the Bishop at e6, where 34. ... Kf7 fails on 35. Rxe6 Rxe6
  with 36. Nd8+, or, alternatively, 34. ... Bf7; 35. Rxe8+ Bxe8; 36. Re7!
  which binds the King (to the Bishop) and the Bishop (to the Knight).
  White's next move would then be 37. Nd8 
  and nothing can be done against the threat 38. Ne6+, which will capture a
  piece: 36. ... Nb6 (to free the Bishop); 37. Nc5 (instead of 37. Nd8
  which gives black an escape with 37. ... Bd7) Bf7; 38. Rb7.  Now, white
  has the threat 39. d7.
  This private analysis may contain flaws, though - js.
]

Zwart had 33. ... Kg8 moeten spelen.
(Black should have played 33. ... Kg8.)

33. Qc3? 	Qd4?

Weer beter 33. ... Kg8.
(Again better 33. ... Kg8.)

34. Qxd4! 	exd4
35. Rfe2 	Bf7

35 Kf7 gaat niet, vanwege Txe6! Txe6 Pd8 met stukwinst.
(35. Kf7 is incorrect, since 35. ... Rxe6!; 36. Rxe6 Nd8, which captures a
piece.)

36. Rxe8+ 	Bxe8
37. Nd8 	

Dreigt 38. Pe6, 39. Pf4.
(Threatens 38. Ne6+ and 39. Nf4.)

		Nc5
38.  b4 	Na4
39. Ne6+	Kg8

Ook Kf7 is geen oplossing: 40. Pf4 Th8; 41. Te7+ Kf8; 42. Pe6+ Kg8; 
43. Txg7 mat, of 40. Pf4 Txf3 41. Te7 Kf8, 42. Pe6 Kg8, 43. Txe8 stukwinst.
(Even Kf7 is not a solution: either  40. Nf4 Rh8; 41. Re7+ Kf8; 42. Ne6+
Kg8; 43. Rxg7 with mate, or 40. Nf4 Rxf3 41. Re7 Kf8, 42. Ne6 Kg8, 43. Rxe8
captures a piece.)

40. Nf4 	Nc3+
41. Kb2 	Bd7
42. Nxh3 	Bxh3
43.  g6 	Kf8
44. Rh1 

Zwart geeft op.  (Black resigns.)
