I'm getting good at this. I managed to post that game on only the third attempt.
Bout damn time!
Yeah, yeah. But what do you think of the above game?

You must have inadvertently stumbled onto a chess site. This is about one's favorite famous chess game.
that's what former us president wanted to know as well
Hilarious play on "Who's on First?" That's funny! Hey, you need to stick around, max. You're adding some quality content to this thread. Thanks.
+1 for the Najdorf game. Haven't seen it in a while. Even with knowledge of the game it's still tough to guess these moves.

Amazing game. Everyone has seen many games with queen sacrifices. But Najdorf sacrificed all four minor pieces. Never saw that in another game.
If you have watched the movie "searching for Bobby Fiischer" you probably can relate to this game. This is the final chess game shown in the movie where our protagonist Waitzkin brilliantly beats the primary antagonist Serwer in the final game of '86 US Primary Championship to save the day. Off-course, the real game was slightly different.
I watched a Youtube instruction video that covered that insane King walk. Instructor said something like "white built a good position to this point, but unfortunately there's nothing left to help the queen get the mate... (long pause)... except for the King!" And then showed the walk. Amazing.
And black could do nothing but watch the white king casually stroll up the board to assist his bride.

I saw the movie many years ago but don't remember much about it, including the final game. I just recall that I wasn't crazy about it.
