Continuing the studies started by \textit{D. H. Bailey} et al. [Exp. Math. 3, No. 1, 17--30 (1994; Zbl 0810.11076)] and refined by \textit{H. Chen} [J. Integer Seq. 9, No. 2, Article 06.2.3, 9 p. (2006; Zbl 1101.11033)], this paper develops a set of identities for Euler sums of the form \[ \sum^\infty_{n=1} \frac {H_{2n}}{n {n+k \choose k}} \] and its finite counterpart. Beyond a versatile use of analytical methods (e.g., partial fraction decomposition and rearrangement of sums), in the proof the author employs relations of the \textit{polygamma} functions (like the double argument identity of the \textit{digamma} function) and some results from \textit{A. Sofo} and \textit{D. Cvijović} [Appl. Anal. Discrete Math. 6, No. 2, 317--328 (2012; Zbl 1289.05005)] and from the same \textit{A. Sofo} [J. Appl. Anal. 16, No. 2, 265--277 (2010; Zbl 1276.11028)]. Didactic as usual, the author cites a vast literature on the Euler sums including [\textit{J. Choi}, Appl. Math. Comput. 218, No. 3, 734--740 (2011; Zbl 1236.40002); \textit{R. Srivastava}, Appl. Math. Comput. 218, No. 3, 1077--1083 (2011; Zbl 1250.05025); \textit{W. Wang}, Comput. Math. Appl. 60, No. 5, 1494--1509 (2010; Zbl 1201.11028); \textit{H. Prodinger}, Util. Math. 83, 291--299 (2010; Zbl 1242.05023); \textit{R. Osburn} and \textit{C. Schneider}, Math. Comput. 78, No. 265, 275--292 (2009; Zbl 1209.11049)]. Presumably in order to improve the reader's knowledge about the summations involving harmonic numbers and binomial coefficients, the works by \textit{G.-S. Cheon} and \textit{M. E. A. El-Mikkawy} [J. Number Theory 128, No. 2, 413--425 (2008; Zbl 1131.05011)], by \textit{T.-X. He} et al. [Comput. Math. Appl. 58, No. 7, 1340--1348 (2009; Zbl 1189.05013)], by \textit{X. Wang} and \textit{M. Li} [J. Integer Seq. 14, No. 1, Article 11.1.3, 9 p. (2011; Zbl 1223.11021)], by \textit{D.-Y. Zheng} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 335, No. 1, 692--706 (2007; Zbl 1115.11054)], by \textit{A. Sofo} and \textit{H. M. Srivastava} [Ramanujan J. 25, No. 1, 93--113 (2011; Zbl 1234.11022)] and still by \textit{A. Sofo} [Anal. Math. 37, No. 1, 51--64 (2011; Zbl 1240.33006); Computational techniques for the summation of series. New York, NY: Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers (2003; Zbl 1059.65002); Adv. Appl. Math. 42, No. 1, 123--134 (2009; Zbl 1220.11025)], are mentioned too.
