Albion 1959 has kibitzed 454 times to chessgames   [less...]

Apr-06-25 T Regedzinski vs Rubinstein, 1917   Albion 1959: Surely 38: Nb6?? was a blunder? It traps the knight with escape square ! Surely there was still time to bail out with Nc5?      Apr-06-25 Rubinstein vs J Mieses, 1909   Albion 1959: Karpova: 40. Nxd6 does not lead to a draw !! After 41.Kxd6 the e5 pawn is a goner. The knight can easily overhaul the a-pawn. White simply wins by pushing the h-pawn. A nice try though it falls short of the mark:      Mar-22-25 Velimirovic vs V Bukal Sr, 1971    Albion 1959: Fascinating game to look at. However, I cannot believe that Nf5!? is sound. It is a move akin to Morphy v Amateur or NN in the 1850's. True white has some open lines a bit of pressure, but this is surely not enough against the correct defence? Bukal faltered with moves such as ...      Feb-18-25 Spassky vs Short, 1979    Albion 1959: Strange place to agree a draw. There is plenty of play left in this position. Unless Spassky wanted to use his energy for the other games, where he was confident of winning ?      Jan-13-25 Capablanca vs Rubinstein, 1928    Albion 1959: Capablanca had to wait seventeen years to avenge his loss at San Sebastian in 1911. This was his one and only win against Rubinstein. Curious how they only played a total of nine games over their respective careers. Also, that these two renowned endgame experts, this game 44 ...      Jan-12-25 A Nimzowitsch vs Reti, 1925   Albion 1959: Reti's only win against Nimzowitsch in eleven games !!      Jan-12-25 A Nimzowitsch vs Reti, 1928   Albion 1959: If I am correct, this is first time that particular line of the English had occurred in tournament play? Reti, did not find the correct way to deal with Nimzowitsch's concept. He could have played Bxf2+!? on move 5. Or instead of Bd6? which has to be a weak move, he should have ...      Oct-26-24 Velimirovic vs Csom, 1974    Albion 1959: This game features in The Batsford Chess Yearbook 1975. It looks at some of their "selected games" from 1974. This one appears on page 55. Black had a difficult, but tenable position until move 20 Qxh2?? (greedy pawn grab) threw it all away. Though the book never commented on ...      Jun-30-24 Larsen vs Spassky, 1999    Albion 1959: Thirteen years after their previous encounter, the final game between these two fighting players, ends in a timid draw:      Jun-30-24 Spassky vs Larsen, 1970   Albion 1959: Quite an impressive come back by Larsen, when you consider that three days earlier he had been crushed by Spassky in only 17 moves !!      May-20-24 Korchnoi vs Karpov, 1978     May-04-24 Polugaevsky vs Gheorghiu, 1976     May-03-24 Larsen vs Korchnoi, 1973     Apr-05-24 Taimanov vs Fischer, 1960    Dec-25-23 Short vs
