  1. "Aron Nimzowitsch: A Reappraisal" by Keene
    < The digital form of the notes of this book has been kindly provided to Chessgames.com by Ray Keene.>

    INTRODUCTION

    Aron Nimzowitsch was the great chess thinker as well as aspirant for the world championship in the late 1920s and early 1930s. His influence on subsequent generations of players has been enormous and his espousal of his own defence, the Nimzo-Indian, 1 d4 ♘f6 2 c4 e6 3 ♘c3 ♗b4, helped it to become, perhaps, the most popular and effective weapon against 1 d4.

    Study of Nimzowitsch's games will be of immense benefit to the chess student who wishes to follow a thematic strategic line. By doing so, it is possible to prepare such plans for one's own chessboard battles and then carry them out, secure in the knowledge that the intellectual spadework has been done well in advance by a master of the art.

    Games which are particularly valuable in this sense are the thematic dark-square domination against Maroczy from Bled 1931, the superlative demonstration of good knight against bad bishop against Henneberger at Winterthur 1931, the strangulation against Tartakower in Nimzowitsch's greatest tournament triumph at Carlsbad 1929, and the ruthless exploitation of doubled pawns against the two times world championship challenger Bogoljubow from that same tournament. An absolute masterpiece of planning was his game against Levenfish. It has inspired many subsequent generations of masters and grandmasters.

    23 games, 1882-1995

  4. 1964 Fischer simul exhibition tour
    <under construction>

    In January of the new year, the only other Robert James Fischer game to appear in the database had been A Saidy vs Fischer, 1964 - played as Auld Lang Syne welcomed 1964 in with the US Championship (1963/64) finishing with a stunning clean-sweep, and the 6th title for the exhibition of the win.

    The attempt in this collection is to primarily arrange his games by a date played in each city, and to then perhaps order them by result.

    February

    9 Detroit
    15 Rochester
    20 Waltham
    23-4 Montreal (see http://canbase.fqechecs.qc.ca/hist6... gives site as Sir George Williams University in Montreal - 5 losses and 3 draws meant that 8 players received a subscription to "American Chess Quarterly"; gave a 10 board clock-simul ($15 to play, $1 to watch), winning all 10 games; another (regular, cost $5 to play; $1 to watch) simul was reported to be 56 players; not much information in the link was apparently provided about the 25 February event...)

    25 Quebec (Quebec (city?!), or perhaps elsewhere in the province; probably not Montreal)

    27 Toronto

    March

    1 Westerly
    2 Fitchburg
    3 Hartford
    5 Richmond
    8 Washington DC
    15 Pittsburgh
    18 Cleveland
    19 Toledo
    22-3 Chicago
    26 New Orleans
    28 Houston
    29 Little Rock

    April

    4 Wichita
    8 Ogden
    12 Hollywood
    13 San Francisco
    15 Sacramento
    16 Davis
    18 Santa Barbara
    19 Santa Monica

    April or May Denver

    May
    3 Cheltenham
    4 New York
    10 Boston
    14 Milwaukee
    16 Flint
    18 Columbus
    20 Cicero
    24 New York

    Perhaps some information can be tracked down on the player [bad player ID] - or at least where/when the game Fischer vs J Rubens, 1964 was played. Fischer vs M Bedford, 1964 seems to be related to his week or so stay in California, and perhaps more details (where/when) of it exist as well. Fischer vs J Wallace, 1964 (kibitz #4) has provided a few details about the history of the tour (see other posts around this time by User: TheFocus as well), including the Denver portion (see http://billpriceweb.com/fischer.html and the other Denver games) of the trip, along with other stops along the legs. Hopefully the dates are somewhat accurate, as some of the pgn content had dates updated, missing (in some of the cases) or corrected, and there doesn't seem to be much reason to seriously doubt the reported total scores for each city as well.

    Consideration had also been given to splitting the collection into cities (like the Game Collection: 1960 Koltanowski 56-board blindfold-simul performance, but which <does> have 29/64 games present), but it might be more interesting to see the simul games of this year collected by year, rather than by city.

    http://www.amazon.ca/Legend-Road-Fi... by William John Donaldson is bound to have much more information.

  7. 64 Instructive modern chess masterpieces (Stohl)
    Compiled by WMD

    Igor Stohl has selected 50 outstanding games from recent years and analyzed them in painstaking depth.

    “We were in the fifth hour. He was lost, ruined, not a chance! I knew it, he knew it. But he sat there —almost an hour! —calculating, calculating, calculating! Inside he was screaming. He was pale, like a dead man, but this force was going through him like millions of volts. I could feel it smashing and smashing at me across the board. Well, it had an effect, I can tell you that. Five or ten minutes—all right. But an hour! In the end, I was the one screaming inside. When you play Bobby, it is not a question if you win or lose. It is a question if you survive.” —Boris Spassky after defeating Bobby Fischer at the Siegen Olympiad in 1970

    Here is what Vladimir Kramnik has to say:
    "Botvinnik’s example and teaching established the modern approach to preparing for competitive chess: regular but moderate physical exercise; analysing very thoroughly a relatively narrow repertoire of openings; annotating one’s own games, those of past great players and those of competitors; publishing one’s annotations so that others can point out any errors; studying strong opponents to discover their strengths and weaknesses; ruthless objectivity about one’s own strengths and weaknesses."

    “Reading can take you places you have never been before.” — Dr. Seuss

    Apr-13-63 Congratulations to one of the greatest chess players who ever lived! It is incredulous that Garry Kasparov celebrates his 60th birthday today. He played five of the best games in the history of the royal game: 1. A. Karpov - G. Kasparov, Moscow (m/16) 1985; 2. G. Kasparov - V. Topalov, Wijk aan Zee 1999; 3. A. Karpov - G. Kasparov, Linares 1993;
    4. G. Kasparov - V. Anand, New York (m/10) 1995; 5. G. Kasparov - L. Portisch, Niksic 1983.

    Kasparov's Evan's Gambit game against V. Anand is one of his most reprinted games in Russian chess literature: Kasparov vs Anand, 1995.

    Al the ventriloquist is performing with his dummy on his lap. He’s telling a dumb-blonde joke when a young platinum-haired beauty jumps to her feet.

    “What gives you the right to stereotype blondes that way?” she demands. “What does hair color have to do with my worth as a human being?”

    Flustered, Al the ventriloquist begins to stammer out an apology.

    “You keep out of this!” she yells. “I’m talking to that little jerk on your knee!”

    07. Play aggressive.

    11. Assume your opponent's move is his best move.

    12. Ask yourself, "why did he move there?" after each opponent move.

    13. Play for the initiative and controlling the board.

    14. If you must lose a piece, get something for it if you can.

    15. When behind, exchange pawns. When ahead, exchange pieces.

    16. If you are losing, don't give up fighting. Look for counterplay.

    17. Don't play unsound moves unless you are losing badly.

    18. Don't sacrifice a piece without good reason.

    19. If you are in doubt of an opponent's sacrifice, accept it.

    20. Attack with more that just one or two pieces.

    21. Do not make careless pawn moves. They cannot move back.

    22. Do not block in your bishops.
    23. Bishops of opposite colors have the greatest chance of drawing.

    24. Try not to move the same piece twice or more times in a row.

    25. Exchange pieces if it helps your development.

    26. Don't bring your queen out early.
    27. Castle soon to protect your king and develop your rook.

    28. Develop rooks to open files.
    29. Put rooks behind passed pawns.
    30. Study rook endgames. They are the most common and most complicated.

    31. Don't let your king get caught in the center.

    32. Don't castle if it brings your king into greater danger from attack.

    33. After castling, keep a good pawn formation around your king.

    34. If you only have one bishop, put your pawns on its opposite color.

    35. Trade pawns pieces when ahead in material or when under attack.

    36. If cramped, free your game by exchanging material.

    37. If your opponent is cramped, don't let him get any freeing exchanges.

    38. Study openings you are comfortable with.
    39. Play over entire games, not just the opening.

    40. Blitz chess is helpful in recognizing chess patterns. Play often.

    42. Stick with just a few openings with White, and a few openings with Black.

    43. Record your games and go over them, especially the games you lost.

    44. Show your games to higher rated opponents and get feedback from them.

    45. Use chess computers and databases to help you study and play more.

    46. Everyone blunders. The champions just blunder less often.

    47. When it is not your move, look for tactics and combinations.

    48. Try to double rooks or double rook and queen on open files.

    49. Always ask yourself, "Does my next move overlook something simple?"

    50. Don't make your own plans without the exclusion of the opponent's threats.

    51. Watch out for captures by retreat of an opponent's piece.

    52. Do not focus on one sector of the board. View thw whole board.

    53. Write down your move first before making that move if it helps.

    54. Try to solve chess puzzles with diagrams from books and magazines.

    55. It is less likely that an opponent is prepared for off-beat openings.

    56. Recognize transposition of moves from main-line play.

    57. Watch your time and avoid time trouble.
    58. Bishops are worth more than knights except when they are pinned in.

    59. A knight works better with a bishop than another knight.

    60. It is usually a good idea to trade down into a pawn up endgame.

    61. Have confidence in your game.
    62. Play in as many rated events as you can.
    63. Try not to look at your opponent's rating until after the game.

    64. Always play for a win.
    (If a win is no longer possible, then play for a draw.)>

    All games from 1958 Portoroz Interzonal see capybara's: Game Collection: Interzonals 1958: Portoroz and interesting information from http://www.chessbase.com/columns/co.... The 15 year old Bobby Fischer placed equal 5th with 12 points and qualified for the candidates tournament. The 22 year old Mikhail Tal won with 13.5 points.

    Game Collection: Santiago 1959 by suenteus po 147. An important international tournament for Bobby who finished 4th-6th with (+7-4=1).

    The 22nd Torneo Internacional de Ciudad Mar del Plata was held in Mar del Plata, Argentina from March 23rd to April 10th, 1959. Among the notable participants were sixteen year old grandmaster Bobby Fischer from the United States. Najdorf and Pachman tied for first place with +7 each at the final. Fischer managed to match Pachman's eight wins, but lost an additional game more than the Czech grandmaster, which was only good enough for shared 3rd-4th with grandmaster Ivkov. suenteus po 147's: Game Collection: Mar del Plata 1959.

    Great Tournament collection by suenteus po 147: Game Collection: Zurich 1959. Before the candidates tournament Bobby played in the strong Zurich tournament. He came in equal 3rd with Keres with 10.5 points behind the winner Tal with 11.5 points and Gligoric with 11 points. Bobby's performance was described as "superb".

    Resignation Trap's Game Collection: WCC Index (Candidates Tournament 1959) where a young Bobby Fischer gained valuable international experience. He was disappointed with his 6th place finish out of 8 candidates with 12.5 points in 28 games. Mikhail Tal won the 4 games with Bobby and finished first with 20 points. This would be the last time Tal would beat Fischer.

    Great Tournament collection by suenteus po 147: Game Collection: Mar del Plata 1960. Fischer in 1960 traveled to South America and met the future world champion Boris Spassky in round 2. Boris would win this encounter with the King's Gambit. However, Bobby won 13 games to tie Spassky for first with 13.5 out of 16 games.

    Next was Buenos Aires where the tournament turned out to be the most unsuccessful in Fischer's entire career.

    Selected games from the Bled International Tournament in 1961 are presented. Fischer was undeafeated but finished second with 13.5/19 behind the winner Mikhail Tal who had 14.5/19. This tournament is notable for Bobby's first win over Tal. He also beat Petrosian and Geller. Here is the tournament crosstable and all games: http://www.worldchesslinks.net/ezqa...

    The 1962 Interzonal tournament in Stockholm was a 23-player round robin, with six players qualifying for the Candidates tournament. The winner was Fischer with 17.5/22 (+13 =9 -0) See capybara's :Game Collection: Interzonals 1962: Stockholm

    In 1962 the Candidate's Tournament was held in Curacao to determine the challenger to Mikhail Botvinnik. Fischer placed 4th with 14 points with the winner Petrosian winning with 17.5 points. See Hesam7's: Game Collection: WCC Index (Curacao 1962).

    The Capablanca Memorial was held in Havana in August and September 1965. Fischer came in equal second with 15 points just a half point behind the winner Smyslov. See suenteus po 147's Havana 1965: Game Collection: Havana 1965 for all the games.

    The Piatigorsky Cup was held in Santa Monica in July and August 1966. Spassky edged Fischer by .5 points for first place. Once again Spassky won the individual encounter in the 17th round. See all the games at matey's: Game Collection: Second Piatigorsky Cup 1966

    Monte Carlo 1967 was another important triumph for Fischer as he placed clear first ahead of both Smyslov and Geller, despite dropping a point and a half to both players. Although Smyslov finished undefeated with +4, it was only good enough for clear second behind Fischer. See all the games at suenteus po 147's: Game Collection: Monte Carlo 1967

    Despite the high drama that often came with Fischer's participation he won the International Tournament in Skopje in August 1967 with a score of 13.5 points ahead of Geller and Matulovic with 13 points. See all the games at suenteus po 147's: Game Collection: Skopje 1967

    In October and November 1967 at the Sousse Interzonal Tournament Fischer withdrew after round 12 having a score of 8.5 out of 10.Two games against Stein and Korchnoi are included.

    Nathania 1968 see suenteus po 147's collection where Fischer won: Game Collection: Netanya-A 1968.

    In 1970 the extraordinary "match of the century" was played. In the end, the USSR won by one point over the rest of the world. See all the games at mynameisrandy's: .Game Collection: USSR vs. Rest of the World 1970

    The strongest five-minute tournament of the 20th century was held in Herceg Novi in April 1970. Fischer utterly dominated this super-strong field with a 19-3 score (17 wins, four draws, and one loss), 4 1/2 points better than 2nd place finisher Tal. This result makes a compelling argument that Fischer is the strongest blitz player of all time. See OBIT's: Game Collection: Fischer's Blitz Games at Herceg Novi, 1970.
