May-30-25 Tartakower vs A Nimzowitsch, 1927    DanQuigley: Nimzowitsch's comment to his move 31 (...Qd7) in Chess Praxis: "The weakness in the white camp, the pawn on e3, the b2 square, and the vulnerable position of the King, are now dealt with according to the rules of the art. See the technique of alternation in My System." I've done ...      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     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 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
