Robert Burnt, New Yonkers Times–Game Of The Week: “In this corner…”
Published by Robert Burnt January 19th, 2007 in Chess, Whole Chess Games, Robert BurntAt the arena, nothing thrills like the stunning knock-out punch. So in chess, to Hastings 1895 looks the rank and file chess player for good old-fashioned slugfests par excellence. In the match-up below, William “Stinkin’ Bill” Steinitz lands the big shot on Kurt von Bardeleben, then batters him along the ropes, driving him into his own corner where he finally resigns. No doubt Kurt was wearing dark glasses at the post fight interview.
