- -----------------------------------------
-
- Center Counter
- --------------
- 1.e4 d5
- Mieses had the remarkable ability to smell out a
- piece sacrifice if one was near. In this game,
- he calmly gives up his Queen ... and wins. ...... Game 04
-
- English Opening
- ---------------
- 1.c4
- Marshall was well known for his extraordinary
- combinations. Here, he doesn't follow the
- script in a complex shootout and abruptly
- wins the game. ...... Game 01
-
- King's Gambit
- -------------
- 1.e4 e5 f4
- Bird's opponent fails to proceed with caution after
- facing a new move (to be expected from Bird!) and
- winds up in a smothered mate in three. ...... Game 09
-
- Nimzo-Indian Defense
- --------------------
- 1.d4 nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4
- Keres, like Alekhine, loved to increase the pressure
- and compound the complications until the opponent
- cracked -- exactly what happens in this game. ...... Game 11
-
- Philidor's Defense
- ------------------
- 1.e4 e5 2.nf3 d6
- Tartakower once said: "The blunders are all there on
- the board, waiting to be made". Bernstein goes
- Rook hunting with a solo Queen, wins both Rooks
- then suddenly realizes he has lost the game. ...... Game 08
-
- Queen's Gambit
- --------------
- 1.d4 d5 2.c4
- Burn was a lover of complications. He was at his
- best in games like this one where strangulation
- was the chief cause of death. ...... Game 07
-
- Queen's Indian Defense
- ----------------------
- 1.d4 nf6 2.nf6 b6
- Sometimes you can prepare too much for an attack and
- boggle down in details. Bogolyubov tires of the
- jockeying and simply attacks the other flank. ...... Game 10
-
- Reti Opening
- ------------
- 1.Nf3
- Fine's opponent first makes a slightly inferior move,
- then another and then yet another until Fine ends
- it all with a neat passed-pawn finish. ...... Game 12
-
- Ruy Lopez
- ---------
- 1.e4 e5 2.nf3 nc6 3.Bb4
- Nimzovich was perhaps the greatest tactician of all
- time. Here is one of his masterpieces -- played
- in a simultaneous exhibition. ...... Game 03
-
- Sicilian Defense
- ----------------
- 1.e4 c5
- Dr. Tarrasch, the undisputed master of positional
- play, positions a Queen, Bishop and two Knights
- for an awesome attack in a mere nine moves. ...... Game 02
- Blackburne, England's remarkable master, faces a
- new wrinkle in a rare line, spots a weakness,
- refutes the innovation, wins the Queen and the
- game -- all this in four moves! ...... Game 06
-
- Vienna Game
- -----------
- 1.e4 e5 2.Nc3
- Spielmann's mastery of Chess is beyond doubt. In
- this game he lets his opponent clear out most of
- the center then takes over and wins decisively....... Game 05
