This game is from the 1935 match for the title of World Champion. Playing White was the defender, Alexander Alekhine, and on Black was Dutch mathmetician and challenger Max Euwe.
It was during this match that Euwe established himself as one of the most formidable minds in chess. This particular game demonstrates the need of looking ahead (an obvious need in chess) with clarity- not simply having an idea of what the consequences are for a certain move, but knowing exactly what will happen. For the beginning player, this game is a great example of prioritization, as many recaptures are delayed to avoid nastier combinations.
