Mar-26-07  lostthefight: 4.Qxe4+ and it looks so sweet for black...an example of not having enough material to take advantage of a highly comprimised position. Clearly black is lost at 31. Kd2, but continues on even after the position is mathematical at 34. Rxc5. I would like to have seen Lasker's reaction to having to play the last few moves.

PS. <lostthefight> From what I'm gathering via CG's database, the games with Miniati were from a match played between the two. Maybe this was the first game between them and Miniati underestimated Lasker and "couldn't stand" losing to him. Or maybe due to the fact that Lasker was already clobbering him in the match, Miniati played on out of spite.

Either way, great game by the future World Champ!

Jun-15-12  MindCtrol9: Lasker,the great!!!! He could play anything,that's why I love his games,the way he used to move the pieces not wasting anytime.The development to activate his pieces,the simplicity and complexity.Something I really like is how he moved the knights in combination with the other pieces.He was and he will Emanuel Lasker,the inmortal,the evergreen player.

  keypusher: I'm here courtesy of an old perfidious post. This looks pretty awful, Black is completely busted after 7.Kf2. But Seirawan lost to Spassky pretty much the same way and about as quickly.
