r1b3k1/p2p1nP1/2pqr1Rp/1p2p2P/2B1PnQ1/1P6/P1PP4/1K4R1 w - - 0 1 Nolot's analysis as reported by Baudot: Teichmann - NN, Zurich 1920 This was a trap, as the game was spectacularly won because of black's weak play. Several authors have published this game without checking anything. For instance, Neishtadt in his excellent book "Lecons de tactique" (sorry, I don't know the title of the english version) gives : "1.Rxh6!! the g pawn will be helped by the h pawn 1...Nxh6 (1...Rxh6 2.Bxf7+ Rxf7 3.g8Q+) 2.Qg5 Nf7 3.Qd8+!! Nxd8 4.h6 and there is nothing to prevent h6-h7+ 1-0" Right, nothing can prevent h6-h7+, but it is not decisive! 4...Qd4!! 5.h7+ Kf7 6.g8Q+ Ke7 7.h8Q Kd6 8.Rg7 Qxd2!! 9.Qxd8 Rc5 10.Rxd7 Bxd7 11.Qxa8 Rb4 12.Qxa7 Qe1 13.Kb2 Qc3 1/2 as white cannot escape the black checks. Comments by Feng-Hsiung Hsu: Be6 appears somewhat worse for white, but 1. Rh6 Nh6 2. Qg5 Nf7 3. Qd8 appears to be a repetition draw or slightly ahead for white. Plays 1. Rh6 after 5 minutes, thought white was slightly ahead, but going down the line, it appeared that black had enough pressure for a draw. My own experience: I ran this one on a dual 1.2 ghz AMD machine. It wants to play the key after about 10 seconds, with a negative score that tends toward a draw over time. I am unsure of this result. |
