A brief look at ‘Simple Chess’ by Michael Stean simply because reports are coming in
that the 2002 algebraic version appears to be on sale at a knocked down price everywhere.
I mention a tiny slip in the book which was meant to lead onto some RHP examples
with the same type of play but I could not find any suitable examples. so straight onto
an Unheard Melody not heard in a John Nunn game. J. Nunn - S. Skembris Paris 1983.
Then I suppose you could call it Unheard Melody II where Berthold Englisch misses
a wonderful move featuring a corridor mate in his game v Gunsberg at Hamburg 1885.
All this is leading up to a great OTB game. I. Nikolayev - D. A Weatherly, USA 2003.
The final position after 23 moves in a Goring Gambit is:
- 8
- a
- 7
- b
- 6
- c
- 5
- d
- 4
- e
- 3
- f
- 2
- g
- 1
- h
