I think that's it! I overestimated the number of forced moves/checks, but I think the Lasker-Thomas game is it. Thanks very much; you know how frustrating it can be to know about something but to be unable to find it. Thank you to Furling and BigDogProblem.
someone gives a very vague description of a game, and instead of whinin bout the lil info you have to work with you guys just ask on and on until you find it,
Nuff respect!!
Originally posted by AlphaAlekhineWhat was funny was that the moves his teacher was calculating to himself didn't matchup to the moves Josh eventually ended up doing (no mention of the race to promote the pawns).
There is an cool WIN in 12 that was constructed by Waitzkin and Pandolfini for the movie Searching for Bobby Fischer. The position never arose in the actual game between the two prodigies.
Speaking of such, does anyone know that kid's name that was Josh's rival? I heard he never pursued chess out of his scholastic years.
Just wondering
