Awesome, thanks for sharing this game with us!

It was a bloody battlefield. This is what happened when your men gave up on you while you think you still have the mean to resist.

white can move his whitesquare bishop to f1?
-
love playing moves like Bd3. just quietly invade the opponent's space and limit his piece activity.
-
amazing game. white was simply too passive

:p i had to replay 4 times: 3:02 cause i thought it was my new kitten meowing :p

h4 followed by R5f3, after bishop takes, rook takes bishop and queen is trapped. Or black could just play some waiting moves.

You should label the video "The Immortal Zugzwang game" because a lot of us know the basic terminology but not all the historic players. Without reading beforehand that this was a really crazy zugzwang position, I never would've watched the video.

well your analysis is a little off..at the 8:00 mark..you say after h4, black plays rf3 and the queen is trapped because of bxf3 and rh2 mate..well this is not so..the black pawn is still on g3..so after bishop takes f3..if rh2, the king simply takes the rook on h2..however i do believe after rook f3, bishop takes f3, the rook on f2 takes bishop, the queen is again lost...absolutely amazing that nimzo could forsee all this after bd6!! right up there with alekine vs reti and rubinsteins immortal
