Steinitz v Blackburne?

i thought it might have been steinitz, he has a habit of closing the centre, playing with his knights and he generally always like to play c3 to take the d4 square away from black

White: Rebel 8
Black: Fritz 4

Yes rob,Steinitz-Blackburne was a good guess,I would've guessed Anderssen played black.
But it was of course a bit of a trick question.It's indeed a computer game Shredder-Rybka,WBEC13 premier division 2006.
It's dubbed Rybka's immortal.

Very surprising two engines created such a game.

Hmm if two humans were responsible for this, it would be more surprising 😉

(the combination of attack & defense is "improbable" for a normal game, especially the moves around the white Queen loss)

The thing lies about completely in the Qg5 move

But of course the lead-up too, but the Qg5 is much of a giveaway, I thought it was a 90s computer face-off but apparently it's fairly recent

No, Karl Ernst Adolf vs. Bagration Felix Adalbert eh... is a different affair

Not that, but combined with the rest of the game it is another "computer move"

Why another computer thread by the way

Let's talk about Chess

I thought it was interesting two engines played such a game.

But ok,here's some chesstalk "Enemy pawns and pieces that advance into your territory are easier to attack"

there!
