Nov-15-03 Lasker vs Steinitz, 1895 
|
fukui: In Ideas Behind the Chess Openings (3rd edition), Fine gives the move order as 5. c3 Bd7 6. 0-0 Nge7. Of course the third edition has numerous typos including two in this same game (12 ... Bs4 13. f5)! |

|
fukui: It seems like queen sacs are easy to see in chess puzzles but hard to see while playing a game. |

Sep-15-03 M Apicella vs C Bauer, 2003

Sep-09-03 Morphy vs Duke Karl / Count Isouard, 1858

Sep-08-03 La Bourdonnais vs McDonnell, 1834 
|
fukui: Was the above post intended for a different game? At move 40 it says, "40...Rf1 41.Rxg3 Rxg1+ 42.Kxg1 Bxg3 and mates next move," which is correct. |

Sep-07-03 Anderssen vs Kieseritzky, 1851 
|
fukui: This is the game that is played in the movie Blade Runner, although the boards are set up incorrectly. |

|
Sep-06-03 Fischer vs Benko, 1965 
|
fukui: Sorry I'm kind of new at chess, but I thought it was only a sacrifice if you don't regain the lost material. A good sacrifice would be a trade of material for some other advantage. |
