| 48 games, 1834-2007 - Frederick Dewhurst Yates - Remarkable games
Frederick Yates is well known for several losses against strong opposition like Capablanca and Rubinstein, but he was able to produce masterpieces himself.

These are his remarkable games!

| 72 games, 1851-2001 - Nimzophile's favorite games
30 games, 1946-1973 - Nimzophile's favorite games: OID-A53
Lasker's "witchcraft" game, as Tarrasch described Lasker's play, also "...willing his opponents to make weak moves."
Really? (Who hasn't tried that!)
In truth Lasker plays the opening defense perfectly with counterplay on the e-file, h8-a1 diagonal, Pc5 punch to the
center--logical, not black magic.

| 1 game, 1914 - Pachman: Meine Seine Besten Partien
The original and complete title in German is "Meine Seine Besten Partien und Meine Probleme." In the book matches decisive Pachman referred to Keres which concluded its fifth attempt in the last tournament of the candidates in double round-robin, and got second place for the fourth time. Pachman praised Keres citing Tartakower"The player
who plays best in a tournament never wins first. He finishes
second behind the guy with the most luck."
Curiosly, Pachman was 2nd in Havana 1963 and considered this his best tournament.
