Sep-12-10LIFE Master AJ: Big difference between Panno .. and Donner.
Sep-12-10
Phony Benoni: No doublt about that. But I shouldn't rely on what's left of my memory. Panno played in the 1st Piatigorsky Cup in 1963, but not 1966. The players at Santa Monica were:

Donner
Fischer
Ivkov
Larsen
Najdorf
Petrosian
Portisch
Reshevsky
Spassky
Unzicker

Fischer, Larsen, Petrosian, Portisch, Spassky were elite players at the time; Reshevsky and Najdorf past their prime, but what primes!; Ivkov and Unzicker maybe just a bit short of the top. And Donner.

Sep-12-10LIFE Master AJ: Agreed.

And Reshevsky later tied for first at a U.S. Championship ..

My last memory of Reshevsky was around 1990 or 1991 .. he was playing in a tournament. Some young upstart was dragging the game on forever, probably in the hope that Reshevksy would tire and lose ..

Reshevsky has a hat on, a small sort of thing, like golfers in the 1930's wore ..

I have his autograph in one of my books, I believe.

Sep-12-10
Phony Benoni: My close encounters with Reshevsky:
Sep-12-10
keypusher:

Even the candidates..I looked at Chessmetrics and saw that the 1959 event included Olafsson (#20) and Benko (#29). In 1962 Filip was #18 and Benko was #38.

Of the ten players at Santa Monica, three were in the top 10.

Like Eric Schiller, I think the modern practice of having only elite players in supertournaments is kind of a shame.

Sep-12-10
Phony Benoni: Well, they did have seven of the top 20, and the rest of the top 10 were Soviet players; Fischer was the only outsider in that group. Though I'm sure the players wouldn't have minded staging the USSR Championship in Santa Monica, the organizers must have wanted more diversity.

Najdorf's #12 at that stage surprises me. I wouldn't have thought him any stronger than Reshevsky, who was #27. Running sims 4 on macbook air. Donner's #48 meant he was not a rabbit in the traditional sense.

Portisch, Ivkov, and Spassky are the only players still with us. 45 years is a long time.

Sep-13-10LIFE Master AJ: Larsen passed away just a little while back ..

***sigh***

another chess legend has departed.

Feb-06-11Eduardo Bermudez: e.f6 !!!!!!!!!!

Jul-29-12SeanAzarin: Capa's mistake was on the 19th move. If he plays 19.. N/2xP, folowed by 20.. O-O, he secures his position satisfactorily. Once he played 19.. QxKP??? the K file opened up and the pins along it wiped him out in a hurry.

This points up the need for White to keep the pressure on and not let his opponent settle. One idea which comes to mind off the top of my head is 20.Rad1.

My web page .. on this game. (I had to re-do it, many of the links were broken, and none of the diagrams or the cross-table were showing up.)

Super-amazing. To beat the great Capa is one thing, to defeat him with a Q-sack .. in a near miniature is a whole 'nother ball of freakin' wax!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mar-15-14LIFE Master AJ: I won't re-post the link, but someone e-mailed me .. they said the web page had 'exploded.' (It was too big to fit his screen.)

So I redid the page .. again.

offramp: Here is one of my favourite chess stories.

Timman writes (in his book on Curaçao 1962, page 27):

Whereupon Geller replies, 'YOU!'>

Very funny! Good old Geller!

Mar-16-14Petrosianic:

Timman got that story straight from Korchnoi's book, 'Chess Is My Life'.

May-05-14Eduardo Bermudez: From 1951 until 1960 he was Tigran Petrosian's trainer. When Bobby Fischer noticed Lilienthal in the audience at his 1992 return match against Boris Spassky, Fischer greeted him with the remark 'Pawn e5 takes f6

offramp: He is the auntie of the Australian player Lillienthomson.
May-05-14
maxi: Capa's 9..♗xc4 is a move unworthy of the younger Cuban genius. He forces a line that: 1. gives up his developed B for White's not developed ♗; 2. exchanges White's weak Pawn; 3. forces White to place his ♕ in a good square; 4. gives White a powerful center.

It is exactly the kind of moves he warns against in his books. He wasn't quite himself those latter days..

Feb-29-20
Phony Benoni: The best game ever played on New Year's Day?
Mar-07-20N.O.F. NAJDORF: Fischer was obviously very impressed by Lilienthal's play and referred to the queen sacrifice when he recognised Lilienthal at a press conference.

The game does bear similarities to this game by Fischer himself:

Apr-27-20Albion 1959: I first saw this game back in 1980 and felt it was time to revisit this game. Lilienthal was one of the immortal few to win a top flight game against Capablanca! Approximately 20 other players did this, a very select few. To my knowledge only other player managed to do a queen sacrifice against Capablanca and win. The other was Iljin-Genevsky, who playing with black pieces sacrificed his queen for two rooks and went on to win! If I am wrong, then I stand to be corrected.As for this game, Capa clearly had an off day, or simply underestimated Lilenthal. I don't see the reason for 14: Rd8 and 15: a5? Why didn't Capa castle when he had the opportunity to do so? He could have done this up to move 18. Difficult to fathom how Capa (as world champion) could overlook the possibility of the queen sacrifice? Yet he did and history was made. The position was losing for Capa when he resigned, but maybe he could have played on to avoid losing 'too short a game'? Go on until about 30, makes it look less damaging. One more thing - N.O.F Najdorf refers to Fischer v Tal 1961, there were similarities to this one by Lilienthal, but more akin was Tal v Hecht 1961, where a similar position occurred, though Hecht did not have to give back his queen as early as Capablanca did. Check it out !
Jul-01-20N.O.F. NAJDORF: I've only just noticed this variation:

22 .. Qa4

23 Re1+ Ne5

24 Rxe5+ Kd7

25 Rd5+ Ke8

26 Re1 mate! 120 tage sodom buch deutsch pdf.

Andre The Giant Video Game

Copyright 2001-2020, Chessgames Services LLC

whitebeach: I don't know what Capa saw over the board when he resigned, but a player of his strength might have run through the winning lines in the time it took him to light a cigar and must certainly have intuited the reality of the position.

Andre The Giant Gameplay

The push f6 might win, but better is 27. Bf6, keeping the bishop central to the action. Black must play R(2)g8, since Rh7 makes the rook a spectator, with little function except guarding the Pf7 forever: In the following lines, if you place the KR on h7 instead of g8, this is obvious .

So: 27. Bf6, Rg8 28. Nb5(!). This move opens up a rank for the rook and restricts the Black K's activity, such as it is. More important, it creates fork threats.

Andre The Giant Playboy Mansion Story

Black would love to play 28 . . . Kc6 and escape to b7 but can't because of 29. Na7, forking the rook. Meanwhile, White has the double threat of Re7+ and Rd4+, driving the K to the forking square or to a worse fate.

Giant

Plausible moves include:

28 . . . R(g)e8. But after 29. Rd4+, the K is driven to the forking square c6.

28 . . . c6. 29. Rd4+ Ke8, and now the fork comes on d6.

28. . . . R(c)e8. This looks good at first. A chance for freedom and coordination for the rooks. But 29. Rc4 threatens Rxc7 mate, and if 29 . . . c6 30. Rd4+ again results in a fork on d6.And on 29 . . . Re1+ 30. Kf2 the threat of Rxc7still exists and the rook is hanging. So the only reasonable move is to admit the mistake and return the rook to guard the c-pawn by 29 . . . Rc8. But then comes 30. Rd4+, and Black has only two moves. One is 30 . . . Kc6, moving yet again into the Na7 fork. The other is Ke8, when 31. Nxc7+ is devastating: 31 . . . Rxc7 32. Rd8 mate, and if 31 . . . Kg8 32. Nd5 with threats that Black cannot meet (e.g., 33. Nxb6 or, if the pawn moves, simply 33. Nb6; or 33. Ne7, forking) without sacrificing material.

Strangely, the toughest defense after 28. Nb5 may be . . . Rb8 followed by . . . Rb7. But after 28 . . . Rb8 29. Rd4+ Kc6 30. a4 Rb7 Black is in virtual zugzwang. White prevents vertical play on the open e- and g-files by Kf2 and then advances his K-side pawns by h3, g4, etc. He will always have the attack on c7 by either Bd8 or Be5, but there is no need to hurry this (especially since, after an exchange of all the pieces on c7, the move . . . b5 would create a winning passed pawn for Black). Eventually White will have f and g pawns on the fifth rank and can then play for a general exchange on c7 that will leave one of his advanced pawns to queen or can obtain a different advantage, such as shifting his R to the h-file.

In other words, within only a few moves Capablanca was going to be in a passive posture where he could only move his KR back and forth along the first rank or bounce his K between c6 and c5 while Lilienthal steadily strengthened and consolidated his position. Why fight it out to the bitter end?
