Jun-10-25 J Dunning vs J Curdo, 1979 
|
GregM: <Check It Out>If you like unusual tactical games, Albin Planinc is worth checking out. His best games are pure genius, but he also lost quite a few with overly optimistic sacrifices. |

Jun-09-25 Kasparov vs D Letterman, 1989
|
GregM: To be honest, surviving 23 moves and finishing with material equality is better than I would have expected from Letterman. |

Jan-26-24 Tal vs E Gonzales, 1972
|
GregM: After 15...e5 16 Qf6 Rg8, I think we'd have seen a spectacular victory by Tal if black hadn't resigned. |

GregM: According to Tim Krabbe, this game also has the record for most moves by a pawn, with the h2 pawn moving 108 times (mostly as a queen, of course).

|
GregM: It looks like a typo. 25. Nc6 is a crushing move but Nc7 would have been a blunder. |
