Here's an interesting game from 1887 with a great sacrifice.

  • Black missed an opportunity at move 11 (missed in your video).Instead of 11....F6 he should have played BE6 and if 12.RXE6 ND4 forks the white rook and queen, holding the position.Reference Irving Chernev's 1954 book "1000 Best Short Games of Chess" game 308 p.142 and Horace Shepherd's filmed 1950s series "Miniature Chess Masterpieces" entitled "A Lost Opportunity".This game was played in Regensburg in 1887 between Backmann & Fiechtl.

  • I didn't see it. Thats one of the reasons I like chess, its not easy

  • nice

  • Very nice game and good commentary. It popped up as recommended on youtube but I guess I wouldn't have found it otherwise. Perhaps it's an idea to make the titles more specific with names, dates etc.?
