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 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
|
DanQuigley: 6...d4 is apparently Teichmann's improvement over 6...a6, which got a workout in Marshall - Oskam, Scheveningen 1905: [Event "NED SB International-04 Scheveningen"]

|
DanQuigley: I think history will be kinder to Niemann than Carlsen. Niemann is speaking publicly and to all appearances honestly and passionately. All we have from Magnus is crickets. Kasparov is right about Magnus having an obligation to account for his actions. |

Apr-11-22 Kasparov vs P Nikolic, 1989
|
DanQuigley: 12...Bf8 looks really dubious to me. Why keep Bishops in a closed position one can't open up? 12...Bxc3 13.Qxc3 Nd7 and I think Kasparov is going to have difficulty proving he has anything. |

Apr-11-22 Kasparov vs P Nikolic, 1989
|
DanQuigley: I put this game into a strong computer program and had it evaluate both sides. The program rendered the verdict that both players had played flawless chess. It couldn't recommend a single improvement. I've never seen that before. |

Jan-22-22 Spielmann vs Pirc, 1931
|
DanQuigley: Part II:
6...e6
Programs like this move for Black the best. In two later games Spielmann faced 6…g6, and as I indicated previously, wasn’t particularly challenged by it. I think young master Pirc here plays the Black pieces as well as they can be played, with patience, and |

|
DanQuigley: Interesting. He didn't live too much longer after his release as a POW. I wonder if his inability to grow a real moustache was a handicap? |

Nov-27-21 Maroczy vs Spielmann, 1932
|
DanQuigley: Here are my thoughts on the game.
7...Bg4?! I have no problem with Black's sixth move, but this looks a bit dubious to me. What comes of pinning the f3 Knight and giving White's Bishop on d3 free reign? I think 7...Bf5, though less popular for Black, gives White problems in ... |
