 |
| Apr-09-05 | | fgh: Truly a great game by the master of strategy. |
 |
| Apr-09-05 | | THE pawn: Indeed. Nimzo must be the stronger pawn handler... |
 |
| Apr-09-05 | | Whitehat1963: Another excellent game from the Player of the Day. |
 |
| Apr-10-05 | | fgh: From the 7th move, till the last one, the king's knight stays on c5! |
 |
| Apr-30-05 | | aw1988: Beautiful. |
 |
| Oct-31-05 | | rjsolcruz: whatever happened to bogoljobov's "... when i'm white, i win because i'm white"? |
 |
| Oct-31-05 | | WMD: The quote is wrong. |
 |
| Oct-31-05 | | RookFile: I think white was slow in getting
a3 in. 9. a3 looks reasonable. |

 | | notyetagm: <ray keene: 12...a4 is a wonderful move> Yes, the brilliant tactical point of Nimzowitsch's 12 ... a4!! is 13 axb4? xb4 14 b1? b3#, a beautiful picturesque pure checkmate from the Black knights:  click for larger view |

 | | Tomlinsky: Taking a look at this game after many years and 12...a4 is such a peach. The move preceding it, 12.a3, on the other hand is complete dross. Bogoljubow completely misses the danger of the pawn advance. The standard of Bogoljubow's play mystifies me at times. His games can be either exceedingly average or excellent. |

| Sep-24-08 | | Sem: Well, Capablanca once said of Bogoljubov: 'He plays pieces all over the board, but it's all shifting wood, all shifting wood.' |

 | | OhioChessFan: There's nothing wrong with 12. a3. 13. Nb5 is the howler. Why allow the exchange of Bishops and free up a5 for the sake of not exchanging a Knight that isn't doing much of anything on c3 or b5? |
