Jul-16-04		Leviathan: A very brilliant win by Nimzo. What's more he won using the advance variation, heavily blamed by Tarrasch and his followers in those years. I think that the advance variation became universally used around 1928, even if Nimzowitsch used it already in his earlier tournaments: for example Aron Nimzowitsch vs Arthur Hakansson is pretty nice!

Jan-20-07		Fast Gun: Chernev himself sums up this endgame "Nimzowitsch played the ending in classic style" Enough Said !!

Jan-20-07		OhioChessFan: I hadn't seen this game of Nimzo's before. Great stuff.
