Feb-09-21 E Liubarski vs V Soultanbeieff, 1928

Dec-29-19 T Florian vs Benko, 1945 
|
TerryMills: I read this game in the book by Benko and Silman mentioned above. The book is excellent; well written, a pleasure to read - unusual for a chess book. I admire the way that Benko simply pushes his opponent's king to a place where he cannot disrupt Benko's pawn majority. Beautiful. |

Jan-24-17 Petrosian vs Spassky, 1966 
|
TerryMills: A beautiful game. Often I have played through a game of Petrosian and said to myself "I could have done that"; he makes it look so easy. |
