Boris Spassky vs Efim Geller 1968 Sukhumi

This is what I mean by being inspired. This might not be releveant in terms of what openings I play, but it's a great game to play through.

Classic Games

From time to time I'll post up a game to play through for anyone who stumbles across this blog, hopefully they'll be of some interest. If I can highlight any themes occurring during the game I will.

William Steinitz vs Curt Von Bardeleban - Hastings 1895 - Giuoco Piano


This game is very good and is one that highlights great attacking play, a wonderful combination and is instructive on how powerful a Rook on the 7th rank is, and how to play an Isolated Queens Pawn position. It was also awarded a Brilliancy prize because it was highly regarded in it's time. Enjoy!
