|
Sj17: Yes; Zhukovsky also manages his lightning setback well. The sequence starting with 15...Nc6 (instead of, say, ...Ne3 followed by Bd6?) feels like a hastily-calculated combination. I wonder if this was a fast game. |

|
Sj17: uqhaibu: right, Alekhine misunderstood where the queen was. It looks like he thought Black's 13th move was Qb6, not Qd6. Were they using letter/number notation back then? The two moves SOUND the same... |
