Dec-24-05  ughaibu: The great tactician and defender, then again, the Latvian is the Latvian.
May-08-06  notyetagm: <ughaibu> Sze was not Latvian, he was Chinese!

See the great article "The Mysterious Chess Life of Rudolph L. Sze" in The Skittles Room over at http://www.chesscafe.com/skittles/s....

Dec-08-14  TheFocus: From a simul in Washington, D.C. on April 22, 1910.

Lasker scored +22=3-4.

Feb-05-18  RookFile: Lasker was just waiting for his opponent in this simul to make a mistake. It's a way to win. The problem is, he didn't.

This and the other Washington simul games (vs. Stephenson, Wootton, Sournin, Knapp) were played on the 21st. See the Washington <Evening Star>, April 22nd 1910, p.22. Whyld, apparently, was misled by the <ACB>, 1910, p.140.

<He beat Emanuel Lasker 2–0 in simultaneous exhibition games at Washington 1910 and New York 1911.> WOW! That's a nice achievement!
