Judit Polgar's immortal game!:

YouTube

This is a beaut!

Wow, it is a very inspirational game. Sometimes, when I see the simplicity and clarity of best players' ideas and moves (once they are shown to me, that is), my own games start to look depressingly primitive.

Also, this YT channel looks like a great find.

Yes, Mato has a lot of entertaining and instructive videos. Besides a great sense of humor as well.

I like Judit Polgar best when she is in full blown cave woman mode!

Hi F.L.

"I like Judit Polgar best when she is in full blown cave woman mode!"

So apparently do Blackbeer and Itsmerlin they played out the exact
same game in 2009 Game 5872692

Also Maite and DigitGus do an exact copy Game 242176

These two were into re-creating brillo's in July 2003.
They also (as near as dam it) replayed Hoffman - Pterov 1844 Game 246408
Zuckertort - Anderssen 1865 they got spot on Game 242173
and then one of them fell into the well known opening trap v the Owen Defence. Game 242171
