Oct-28-23 Jan Hein Donner    Scuvy: Answering Retireborn (4 years later): My recollection from reading The King (I no longer have the book) was that Donner had several reasons for his extreme dislike of Prins. First, Donner simply considered him a bad player and once offered to play a match and spot Prins 4 points: "he      May-09-23 M Kolesar vs O Sikorova, 1998    Scuvy: The game score appears to be incorrect as 24...Qc6+ is simply answered by 25 Nxc6. Perhaps 24....Qb7+ was played?      Feb-25-23 Donald Byrne   Scuvy: That was a fast correction! Thanks to the CG admin who fixed it. Regards, Scuvy      Dec-24-22 Santa Claus    Scuvy: To the CG community and admins: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Wishing all peace on earth, good will and good chess in 2023.

Richter 's choice was almost always 6 e5. This is more akin to an Exchange French.      Feb-20-22 M Al-Modiahki vs Tin Htun Zaw, 1999   Scuvy: This game appears in John Nunn's excellent primer "Learn Chess." For whatever reason, Dr. Nunn does not mention 5...e6 to break the diagonal of White's powerful light-squared Bishop. The move played, 5...c5, appears to lose immediately.      Feb-19-22 R Michell vs G Thomas, 1935    Scuvy: From the tournament book Hastings 1934-35, edited by James Schroeder: "A disappointment for one of the truly great gentlemen who was also a superb sportsman...When I sent Thomas a copy of my book of the AVRO 1938 Tournament he sent me a thank-you note."      Jan-30-22 Raymond Keene     Dec-11-21 Alireza Firouzja     Nov-27-21 United States Championship (1969)     Nov-26-21 Bronstein vs L Evans, 1955     Nov-26-21 Nepomniachtchi vs Carlsen, 2021     Nov-21-21 Yanofsky vs L Evans, 1947     Nov-21-21 Smyslov vs L Evans, 1952     Nov-13-21 F Olafsson vs Portisch, 2008    Nov-13-21 Portisch vs F Olafsson, 1969    Oct-09-21 J Barendregt vs Portisch, 1963    Jul-05-21 C Hartlaub vs A Meyer, 1916     Jul-04-21 A Moiseenko vs S Lu, 2014     May-24-21 Knaak vs Adorjan, 1985     Feb-13-21 K Richter vs Saemisch, 1933     Jan-09-21 Euwe vs Alekhine, 1937    Jan-09-21 G Milos vs J Polgar, 1996     Nov-01-20 Gelfand vs Shirov, 2007     Oct-03-20 A Volokitin vs Fridman, 2016     Sep-28-20 T K Ozgur vs J M Miciano, 2018     Aug-29-20 Wolfgang Uhlmann     Aug-19-20 Alekhine vs Lasker, 1914     Jul-24-20 NN vs D Freeman, 2018     Jul-16-20 M Bonch-Osmolovsky vs B Baranov, 1953     Jul-14-20 H Weil vs Alekhine, 1942     Jun-19-20 Andrei Volokitin     May-19-20 Bobby Fischer     Apr-06-20 Ed Lasker vs F Chalupetzky, 1903    Feb-04-20 J H Donner vs O Troianescu, 1957     Jan-26-20 V Artemiev vs Caruana, 2020     Jan-14-20 A Kashlinskaya vs Sevian, 2018     Dec-19-19 Duras vs M Gladig, 1909    Nov-28-19 Moscow (1967)     Nov-28-19 Nepomniachtchi vs V S Gujrathi, 2019     Oct-13-19 L Christiansen vs Seirawan, 1978     Jul-28-19 Tartakower vs Vidmar, 1905    Jul-20-19 Sevian vs K Y Chan, 2016     Jun-09-19 G Meszaros vs I Wessel, 1933     Jun-08-19 Y Yu vs Ding Liren, 2019     May-26-19 Peter Nurmi    May-17-19 Kurt Richter     May-11-19 Tal vs G Zaichik, 1988     Apr-19-19 Conel Hugh O'Donel Alexander     Apr-14-19 Efim Bogoljubov     Apr-13-19 Vasiukov vs Uhlmann, 1962     Apr-06-19 Szabo vs K W Lloyd, 1961     Mar-09-19 Fischer vs Tal, 1961     Mar-01-19 Marshall vs Burn, 1912    Jul-12-18 K Richter vs Alekhine, 1941     Jun-08-18 Sam Shankland     Jun-04-18 J L Hammer vs V Sanal, 2011     Jan-30-18 Boris Spassky     Dec-25-17 L Cooper vs I Ivanov, 1987     Dec-09-17 Adams vs Nepomniachtchi, 2017     Jul-23-17 James R Schroeder     May-02-15 Karpov vs Andersson, 1973     May-01-15 J Lokvenc vs H Heinicke, 1939
