Kibitzer's Corner
Jul-07-08  ToTheDeath: Alekhine missed the immediate mate with 27.Rg1+ Kh8 28.Rxe6!!

Still, quite a forceful and pretty game from the champion.

May-26-11  Shams: A simul game? Black plays like he has only one game in the db (he does) and white misses <ToTheDeath>'s nice shot. Alekhine was touring in 1933 I believe.
May-26-11  csmath: If you have difficulties playing any defence against e4 just revisit Alekhine and see how he has always produced initiative regardless what the opponents did. The man was an incredible hyper-dynamic player, one of a kind.
Oct-28-15  TheFocus: From a simultaneous exhibition in Washington, D.C. at the Jewish Community Center on August 29, 1933.

Alekhine scored +27=0-1. Two games were played blindfold.

See <The Washington Post>, September 17, 1933, Second Section, pg. 9.
