Mar-09-25 Huebner vs Kasparov, 1992 
| |
| generror: a recording of the TV show in on YouTube, it's pure awesomeness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wdj...
this game starts at 54:18 and it ends at 60:45. funny how everyone is confused that the game ends. and it's weird, Hort says he analyzed that but nobody seems to notice that ... |

Mar-08-25 Gruenfeld vs Alekhine, 1923
| |
| generror: Dang, I start to get why Alekhine is counted among the greatest. This is yet another combination that's just so tricky and yet so simple and makes me realize how complicated and beautiful chess is. It's all the better because Grünfeld also does some really nice moves. |

Feb-25-25 Anderssen vs Morphy, 1858
| |
| generror: Really interesting game. Anderssen's attack is pretty bad in my opinion, the simple 16.Qc2 g6 Bxh6 is far better. He was lucky that Morphy missed the amazing queen sacrifice 26...Qxf5! -- after 27.Bxf5 Rxa1, he is still way up material with White having no compensation whatsoever. ... |

Feb-22-25 Ruy Lopez vs G da Cutri, 1560
| |
| generror: Not sure what you mean by ...Qf8. Maybe the continuation 10.Qxh7+ Bg7 11.Bh6 Qf8? Then I'd go 12.Bxg7 Qxg7 13.Qxg7+ Kxg7 14.exd5 (D) and I'm up the exchange plus a whopping extra pawns. [DIAGRAM] Sure, no drama, because on the level I'm playing, the only drama is the drama people ... |

Feb-18-25 NN vs P Lewin, 1864
| |
| generror: In his 2013 book <The Complete Albin Counter-Gambit>, Luc Henris mentions a game "Keresev - Urs" played in 1864 as being the first Albin Countergambit game. Guess it's this one. He also claims that Serafino Dubois was the first to mention this opening in the second volume of ... |

Feb-14-25 Stockholm Allmanna Club vs Riga Senior Club, 1934
| |
| generror: In his 2001 book "The Latvian Gambit Lives", Tony Kosten claims that this correspondence game (which ran until 1936) was "famous" and inspired FIDE to officially rename the opening from Greco Countergambit to Latvian Gambit on their 1937 Congress. However, according to Edward ... |

Feb-14-25 NN vs Greco, 1620
| |
| generror: <VDizz>, you gotta enjoy absurdity for absurdity's sake, especially when <Jaymthegenius> posts his insights and, um, analyses? <wolfmaster> Suicide? On the contrary: according to Stockfish, 8.Qxh8 is the only move that doesn't lose (eval +1.7, second best move ... |
