A look at some famous games left out of the games index
by mistake and probably the most famous game of all left
out of a book on purpose. (though I doubt if anyone would
have brought it up if the author had not made an issue of it.)
Four games of mine from 2018 (two wins, two losses)
A lovely instructive study/probelm to show a class of students.
@greenpawn34 Have been enjoying your posts for years even though I haven’t got a clue what you’re on about most of the time. Happy New Year and keep it up! Cheers Greg Williams

The voices encourage my vices. The Duck is always telling me to put money on
a horse with a chess sounding link. I've lost hundreds of earth pounds doing this.

The books of his games, remember he wrote no book. are all N.N.
He may have one or two games in there that were actually played and that is
probably the case as some of the traps are being followed move for move today.
But it has been generally agreed by all historians I have read that these games were analysis.
(I would not call myself a chess historian, a keen amateur is about right.)

I had a chance meeting with a chess promoter and teacher in Allentown the other day. Allentown Pennsylvania. Bruce Davis, USCF around 1950 ish and we played a game, but my USCF is 200 points lower and of course I lost but I got quite a bit into the game, actually getting two pieces for the rook but blew it when I missed his rook axing my knight where the knight AND my rook were protected by the same pawn and his king was on my rook so rook takes knight, pawn takes rook, his king takes rook and it was all over a few moves later, bishop to rook and he had something like 4 pawns up....
He is doing an all girls championship in a few weeks and he teaches online, has some very young students already at expert level, 8 years old.
