Nov-05-12 Reshevsky vs J H Donner, 1966 
|
Anderssen99: Patzer2: It seems that White's most incisive win is not 30.Re5+ but 30.Nf5!!,Qd5 31.g4+!!,Nxg4 (31...,Kg6. 32.Ne7 Or: 32.♘h4 mate) 32.Nxg7+ Kh4. 33.Qxg4 mate. |

Oct-31-12 Colin McNab 
|
Anderssen99: I searched this database in vain to find McNab,s beautiful win against Sigurjonsson at Luzern Olympiad 1982 and also the game allegedly won by George Mackenzie (Against Simon Winawer) at Paris 1878 after making four under promotions (!!). I will be grateful if any member of the ... |

Oct-31-12 Kamsky vs Karpov, 1991

Oct-30-12 Unzicker vs Smejkal, 1982
|
Anderssen99: Probably the last few moves were played under severe time pressure otherwise a world class player like Smejkal would hardly offer the exchange of queens overlooking a forced mate as follows: 57...,Rh1+ 58.Kf2 Qh4+ 59.Ke2 Qxg4+ 60.Qf3 Qxg2+ 61.Qxg2 Rxg2+ 62.Kf3 Rg3+ 63.Ke2 Rh2+ ... |

Oct-10-12 La Bourdonnais vs McDonnell, 1834 
|
Anderssen99: Couldn,t de La Bourdonnais have played 33.Rh7+!! at once? That sacrifice would have given him a mating attack whether Mcdonnell captures the rook or not. |

Sep-13-12 Fischer vs Gligoric, 1959

Anderssen99: Isn,t 29.g6!! even stronger than 29.bxc3 (The move Fischer played)? |

Aug-10-12 F J Lee vs Lasker, 1899 
|
Anderssen99: Keypusher: By saying that the move I gave instead of Dr. Lasker's 37th move is a little stronger does not mean that the move played by that Legendary world champion (Who is - by the way- one of my favourite players) is weak. The great Dr. Lasker had very original ideas in the ... |
