Looking for a specific game...

Hello everyone,

I am writing a short-story with its main theme being a game of chess. I would like to find a game (with all its moves included) that is very exciting, relatively long and ends in a stalemate.

Would anyone be able to suggest something?

Greatly appreciated! Thanks in regard! Your support will obviously be mentioned in credits!

Thank you, I have looked into 'swindles' and they are exactly the kind of games I'm looking for. Maybe a search for the most exciting swindles would be more specific on my side.

The Evans/Reshevsky looks quite good; I have also found 'Beliavsky–Christiansen, Reggio Emilia 1987–8'. Which one do you prefer in terms of excitement?

Any suggestions are still and always welcome!

This is the first one that comes to mind:


Already analysed in depth in many books. The resulting endgame was analysed by Yuri Averbakh as early as 1954.
