Caissanist's favorite games This is just a bunch of games that I like. 6 games, 1930-2006 Deep Exchange Sacrifices 5 games, 1922-2005 Favorite Puzzles 2 games, 1925-1943 Gerard Welling's favorites of his own games These are some games by IM Gerard Welling which he has mentioned as being among his favorites, in a posting to his Chessgames page on March 18, 2006. I love to play over Welling's games. In my opinon he is one of the most original and creative masters playing today (and not just because of his weird openings, although those are fun too). 21 games, 1981-2005 Instructive Benko Gambits 1 game, 2005 Instructive Endgames This collection's mostly for my personal use, I'm trying to work on my endgame and these are the ones on my "to-do list". 8 games, 1892-2019 Instructive Middlegames Kasparove QG Positional Crush 6 games, 1975-2005 Instructive Puzzles from Chess.com 3 games, 1975-1985 Instructive R+P endings 1 game, 1992 One Hit Wonders Great wins against well-known players by people I had never heard of. 3 games, 1929-1957 Petrosian's Beautiful Pawn Pushes Many of Tigran Petrosian's best games were won by seemingly innocuous pawn pushes in positions with little or no obvious advantage for him, here are a few of my favorites. 2 games, 1968-1971 Possible puzzles 9 games, 1846-1992 Puzzles I shouldn't have missed 10 games, 1911-2005 Rusty-nail knights In classical systems with 1.e4, the game often turns on whether white can plant a knight into enemy territory, often on d6 or f5. These are examples of what happens when white is able to do that. 3 games, 1902-1966
