Former World Chess Champion Alexander Alekhine was playing Black against Yeffim Bogoljubov at the Hastings tournament back in 1922.
Alekhine sacrificed his Queen, advanced a Pawn and got a second Queen, then sacrificed IT, advanced another Pawn and got a THIRD Queen, then sacrificed it, and was advancing another Pawn to get a FOURTH Queen when his opponent resigned.

Far from the record (which comes from a "White to play and draw" study).
How many people did a queen sacrifice in their whole chess career? let me know in the posts !!
