chess opening #7527 (17)Not quite a miniature... Annotated by archduke_piccolo (2340): The annotated game by id=raskerino (Suba Game #2) reminded me of this game from the New Zealand Correspondence "Reserve" Championship, 1975-6.  This game has the same moves as raskerino's until move 8.  It, too, is a tactical melee, but is just too long to be called a "miniature".
