Oct-03-07 | | porgue: does this game mean that neumann overcame alcoholism or something? very strange... |
|
Oct-07-07 | | darth pawn: Hahaha Neumann owned alcohol ROFL.
The Neumann entry says he stopped playing after 1872 due to mental illness. Are you sure it wasn't because he became an alcoholic?? |

Dec-24-08 | | WhiteRook48: So Beer + Scotch game + a hurricane for an opponent= not good = 0-1 |

 | | stoy: The Austro-Prussian war was fought in 1866. The battle of Gitschin was fought near Jicin. Does the player "Beer" have anything to do with the war? |
|
Sep-27-11 | | henry55: Baron von Beer was a German (Prussian) from Pomerania, he was too early players of Berliner Schachgesellschaft |

 | | sleepyirv: That's a Scotch with a Beer chaser. |
|
Aug-22-13 | | GumboGambit: Since the Scotch Game left Beer feeling hungover, maybe his next game should have employed the Nescafe Frappe Attack as a remedy? |
|
Jan-26-15 | | RookFile: I'll drink to that! |

Aug-11-15 | | zanzibar: 11...f5 is a nice break by Black.
White really has to play 12.Nd2 to stay even. The slide-by gives Black the play he wants... After 12...f4
 click for larger viewAnd the move 13.Bxf4 is fatal given the pins on f,g-files (and if 14.Ne2, then 14...Bg4 shows who's boss). |
|

 | | perfidious: Many have found themselves unable to overcome Beer, and it took a great player to do so in this miniature. |

Mar-20-17 | | ChessHigherCat: <zanzibar: 11...f5 is a nice break by Black. White really has to play 12.Nd2 to stay even.> Hi <zanzibar>, do you mean 12. Bd2? If 12. Nd2 then fxe3 13. Qxe3 and Beer has gone flat |
|
Mar-20-17 | | zanzibar: <CHC> I think there's some confusion between the 12th and 13th moves. I did mean 12.Nd2, since I was referring to the 12th move after 11...f5. (The move 12...fxe3 is impossible)
But I then went on to diagram the situation after 12...f4, so White's 13th move. (Now, 13...fxe3 is possible, thought 13.Nd2 isn't - as I think you were pointing out). Sorry - maybe I should have be a little more explicit (though I did say after 12...f4). |
|
Mar-21-17 | | ChessHigherCat: <zanzibar> Okay, sorry, I should stop looking at diagrams and notation at the same time because I always get confused like that (I thought I must have misunderstood since nobody else had commented on it in 2 years :-). Your move 12. Nd2 looks much better than the game line. I was looking at 12...f4, 13. Bxf4 (forced) Qf6 but it doesn't look like black gets any decisive counterplay. |
