A LESSON FROM THE MASTERS....

The evans gambit is one of my pet openings, (at the moment)and here I present to you a game from one of the most lethal masters of his time. Chigorin.
the annotations are "heavily borrowed" from chessmaster (TM) .
Enjoy the game and watch a master at work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moral of the game

  • hold the initiative
  • present your opponent with multiple problems
  • when facing the Evans gambit or any other gambit for that matter, consider returning material to free up your pieces.

Great game kaos2008, a lot of fun to play over.  I had a book on Chigorin's games once.  I regret losing it.

its left an imprint in my mind and i can say I have gone thru the game more than 40 times and the subtle nuances just blow my mind away each time.....
and chigorin seems to be relentless in the middle game.
