The Wana's Games
Compiled by wallnuts23
--*--

Most of these games explore very instructive and basic concepts of games derived from openings I play, such as Queen's Gambit as White, Torre attack as White, English as white and black, Sicilian and Kings Indian as Black. Most of these games are known to be quite instructive, and are quite brilliant I must say, simple, but detrimental to the opposition!

Instructive game, black launches attack on e4, distracts white
Fischer vs Tal, 1959 
(B90) Sicilian, Najdorf, 33 moves, 0-1

Shows the power of the King's Indian. Like g3, and Rf7
Taimanov vs Najdorf, 1953 
(E99) King's Indian, Orthodox, Taimanov, 43 moves, 0-1

Torre Attack, White, very instructive h4-h5 Nf1-e3-d5/f5
P Trifunovic vs M Aaron, 1962 
(A48) King's Indian, 31 moves, 1-0
