Jun-19-25 Greco vs NN, 1620   joeld: Surely this game needs to be given the pun "Never mof6!", credit to Ben Finegold.      Jun-19-25 Kotov vs Petrosian, 1949    joeld: The name I gave this game in my database is "Checks, Captures, and Threats". I propose this for the daily game pun.      Jun-15-25 S Nedeljkovic vs A Matanovic, 1950   joeld: Beautiful "closing the cage" at the end. These moves are often hard to find when calculating mating attacks. I found this combination in Aleksander Kostyev's book From Beginner to Expert in 40 Lessons translated by Jon Speelman.      Jun-12-25 A Rubezov vs G Borisenko, 1960   joeld: Didn't Borisenko's mother even teach him: don't play with your food before you eat it!      Jun-10-25 Giri vs J Christiansen, 2013    joeld: Quite a beautiful game. I love how Giri puts a lockdown on the f-file, locks the opponent's king out of the game, advances his own, and simply wins the endgame.      Jun-10-25 Maroczy vs Marshall, 1907   joeld: The White queen is out being frisky with the Black queen's husband, while she knows that her husband is safe at home, not doing anything naughty.      Jun-01-25 Hodgson vs F Hellers, 1994    joeld: Hodgson has a video that features this game. It's called Combat Chess #2 All-out Attack      Jun-01-25 M Kamyshov vs A Sokolsky, 1938   joeld: I can't believe nobody has pointed out that this is similar to J L Hammer vs Carlsen, 2003      May-27-25 Tolush vs Simagin, 1952   joeld: Petrosian used Simagin's theme against him a few years later in Petrosian vs Simagin, 1956      May-26-25 Glucksberg vs Najdorf, 1930   joeld: Chernev in The Bright Side of Chess also has this one dated to 1935      May-23-25 Geller vs Euwe, 1953    May-23-25 Botvinnik vs Capablanca, 1938     May-23-25 A Nimzowitsch vs Capablanca, 1927    May-19-25 Spielmann vs P Johner, 1908    May-19-25 Kotov vs Szabo, 1953     May-18-25 J L Hammer vs Carlsen, 2003    Jul-22-24 L Engels vs Maroczy, 1936    Dec-08-23 R Nezhmetdinov vs V Shcherbakov, 1954     Nov-07-23 Morphy vs Lowenthal, 1858     Oct-15-23 W Fuetterer vs A Zinkl, 1897    Sep-26-23 Znosko-Borovsky vs H Mattison, 1926    Jul-23-23 J Piket vs L Prins, 1970    Jun-16-23 Petrosian vs Simagin, 1956     Jun-01-23 Kieseritzky vs Staunton, 1845     Jun-01-23 A Meek vs Morphy, 1855     May-29-23 Alexander Ilyin-Zhenevsky    Jun-14-22 Morphy vs Maurian, 1866    May-13-22 Morphy vs J L Preti, 1858     Mar-18-22 Tarrasch vs J Mieses, 1916     Dec-20-21 D Minic vs K Honfi, 1966    Dec-18-21 A G Essery vs F H Warren, 1912     Oct-10-21 J W te Kolste vs A Nimzowitsch, 1925     Oct-10-21 Pilnik vs Geller, 1955     Mar-24-21 Morphy vs Potier, 1858     Feb-11-21 Capablanca vs Reshevsky, 1938     Feb-01-21 Firouzja vs Wojtaszek, 2021     Jan-18-21 Znosko-Borovsky vs A J Mackenzie, 1924     Jan-07-21 Ruger vs H Gebhard, 1915
