A very interesting game that my friend henry55 uploaded.I just wanted this game to have more attention with a separate article.You can see the two rooks sacrifice..Enjoy!
This game was probably played 16.03.1912 in St.Petersburg Chess Club tourney. Results this tournament was:
1.Alekhine - 7p/9
2.Levenfish - 6.5p
3-4. Rabinovitch and P.Romanowski - 6p etc.
awesome! overwhelming tactic!
Excellent play from Alekhine!!
Black may be 9 points up,but there is absolutely nothing they can do about it,after the perfect calculations of Grand Master Aleksander...
The two rook sacrifice is very similar to that that he used in the Immortal game. This appears to be a well developed pattern he uses.
Beautiful game. Thanks for sharing .
Poor Levenfish. He tried so hard.
lets all suppose that Levenfish took the knight instead of the rook at move 15.

Bxb5+ Kd1
Rd8+ (or Qd8+)
but after Bd2 or Kd2 game goes on i think ....
