Good one. Alekhine was brilliant. Thanks for posting it. I was wondering if I should give up on this thread because I've been the only one posting games for a while. It would be good if people would at least comment on the games that are posted - assuming they check them out.

I was attempting to post Game 6 of that match and the Henry Bird vs. James Mason (New York, 1876) game that was awarded the first tournament brilliancy prize in history. But I couldn't get either to post.
