Mar-12-24 D Przepiorka vs Alekhine, 1922   DanQuigley: How do you keep your opponent from resigning? The same way any supervisor would: refuse to accept it. Presumably Przepiorka at adjournment wrote down a move on a piece of paper that was then sealed in an envelope. At the resumption of play the envelope would be opened, the ...      Oct-04-23 Geller vs Fischer, 1970    DanQuigley: No post with a chess move since July 2020. Clearly those who can't don't. At the risk of boring self-aggrandizing drama queens who normally pollute the air space here, let me just discuss the game. I don't understand what Geller could possibly have been thinking with the move ...      Sep-01-23 A J Goldsby    DanQuigley: When we played together in 1987 and traveled together your sighted game was more than I could handle. If only I had thought to request you be blindfolded. Wait a minute. It comes back to me now. We both tried to play a game or two without sight of a board on a car trip to a ...      Aug-31-23 Kasparov vs P Wolff, 1988   DanQuigley: GM Ben Finegold did a nice 45-minute YouTube video on GM Patrick Wolff that featured this game in 2021. He really elucidated the tactics. It's worth seeking out.      Jul-12-23 Grunfeld, Russian Variation (D81)   DanQuigley: The reason to play the move order 4.Qb3 (instead of 4.Nf3 Bg7 first) is that after 4...dxc4 5.Qxc4 (this move always protects d4 adequately) 5...Bg7 6.e4 0-0 is that White can now play 7.Be2 and avoid the 7.Nf3 Bg4 line via transposition: 4.Nf3 Bg7 5.Qb3 dxc4 6.Qxc4 0-0 7.e4 Bg4.      Jun-07-23 Greco vs NN, 1620   DanQuigley: One of the questions I like to ask myself when going over games such as this is, "When is the latest point the losing player could have played a different move and had a reasonable expectation of staving off loss if both players were grandmaster strength?" My candidate is Black's      May-20-23 Rubinstein vs G Bartoszkiewicz, 1897   DanQuigley: You know, one would think that with computers and after all this time a consensus would have been reached regarding the position after Black's tenth move, but it is still not at all clear whose position is to be preferred.      Dec-12-22 Tarrasch vs Mendelson, 1879   DanQuigley: Tarrasch himself noted alternative moves late in the game and annotated them in Three Hundred Chess Games (1894): If instead 27…gxf5, or 27…Nxf5, White will play 28.Nxf7. Should Black decide to take the exchange by 27…Nxf1, White retains a very strong attack using all his ...      Nov-21-22 Alekhine vs Teichmann, 1921    DanQuigley: Correct score of the game according to the contemporary Dutch newspaper report provided by mifralu (thanks): [Event "Alekhine - Teichmann (1921)"] [Site "Berlin GER"] [Date "1921.06.05"] [Round "2"] [White "Alekhine, Alexander"] [Black "Teichmann, Richard"] ...      Nov-21-22 Teichmann vs J Mieses, 1924    DanQuigley: About the Berlin 1924 tournament, according to Winter: "One of the last tournaments of the year was a small double-round, four-man event in Berlin on 9-17 December, unexpectedly won by P. Johner of Switzerland ahead of Rubinstein, Teichmann and Mieses. (It was the final ...      Nov-20-22 Rubinstein vs Teichmann, 1908    Sep-10-22 Hans Niemann     Apr-11-22 Kasparov vs P Nikolic, 1989    Apr-11-22 Kasparov vs P Nikolic, 1989    Jan-22-22 Spielmann vs Pirc, 1931    Jan-06-22 Horatio Caro     Nov-27-21 Maroczy vs Spielmann, 1932    Nov-10-21 Spielmann vs M Elyashiv, 1903    Sep-19-21 Winawer vs H Suechting, 1897    Aug-01-21 Botvinnik vs Smyslov, 1958    Apr-09-21 I Rice vs W Donisthorpe, 1892     Mar-24-21 Reti vs A Nimzowitsch, 1928     Nov-18-20 Alexander Petrov     Nov-02-20 V Eingorn vs E Torre, 1987     Aug-23-20 Yates vs Tartakower, 1926    Jul-26-20 P K Wells vs M Yeo, 2013    Jul-09-20 V Terentiev vs A Wojtkiewicz, 1979    May-17-20 Morphy vs A Meek, 1857     Apr-07-20 J L Watson vs S Cronick, 1966     Mar-14-20 Kostic vs Maroczy, 1922     Mar-04-20 Karpov vs Dreev, 2002     Nov-25-19 B Kalinkin vs Karpov, 1961    Nov-13-19 Simagin vs Leonovich, 1936    Nov-11-19 Simagin vs Abramson, 1960     Dec-26-18 Andersson vs A Fischer, 2017     Sep-08-18 V Knorre vs Chigorin, 1874     Jun-12-18 Shankland vs T Sosa, 2018    May-26-18 T Pipan vs So, 2003     May-13-18 Topalov vs D Anton Guijarro, 2017    May-12-18 Leonardas Abramavicius     May-09-18 S Landau vs L Abramavicius, 1930     May-09-18 Biographer Bistro     Mar-03-18 B Larsen vs E Lauridsen, 1948     Dec-30-17 Staunton vs Horwitz, 1851     Dec-08-17 Pillsbury vs Gunsberg, 1895     Nov-30-17 W Adams vs M Pavey, 1948     Sep-27-17 J Tarjan vs Kramnik, 2017     Jul-07-17 R Rodriguez vs B Weiner, 2001    Jun-24-17 Carlsen vs Topalov, 2017     Jun-02-17 Spassky vs M Illescas, 1990    May-31-17 Bagirov vs A Yusupov, 1979    May-03-17 Psakhis vs S Semkov, 1982     Apr-30-17 Rubinstein vs NN, 1902     Apr-30-17 Marshall vs Rubinstein, 1925     Apr-29-17 Janowski vs Lasker, 1909     Apr-22-17 Miles vs G Welling, 1995    Apr-20-17 I Rabinovich vs A Selezniev, 1914     Apr-20-17 Capablanca vs S Rakowitz, 1922
