Stunning tactics which seem to miraculously materialise, from nowhere. Thanks KC and keep up the good work.

What a monster Lasker was. Thanks for the video!

I like levy and Rosen for laughs. Love the king for analysis and all around insight.

What a combo. After looking at the Chigorin-Lasker game with the open g-file, it is interesting how Lasker again used an open file to his advantage. But here with two knights rather than two bishops.

i got Nfg5 but Q*R was a shocker. I was looking at Nf6 straight away but the Q sack first really makes it work.

Nice attack. Steinitz thought it was safe, but it was a sneaky tactic. I think Steinitz got caught up in the calculations because his h pawn could’ve kicked the g knight away, so he could’ve even been optimistic about the position and decided to just defend the fork first and then stir up trouble. But he didn’t visualize hard enough, and sneaky Lasker got him. 😄 Cheers. 💯👌
