Hello, everyone. I found a nice chess game today and I thought I might share it with you. Howard Staunton faces off against Bernhard Horwitz in this little 12-move miniature that took place in London, 1846. I did not analyze this game nor did it come with analysis so would anybody like to do that for me? : )
6...Nc6 looks to me like it was a mistake.
I used to play Bird's opening in this fashion - w/ f4, e3 and c4.
Fun little game though.
Short game.
Ouch, that fork has to hurt!
2 deadly forks in a row.. ouch
from one fork to another, nice :)
Dang, he didn't play the Staunton Gambit!
Poor Horwitz (guess that Nxd5 idea didn't work)...
