Daily Chess Puzzle

February 7, 2019

Today’s puzzle is a change from the normal. Inspired by a tweet by Olimpiu Orcan, on an occasional basis I will post a challenge to see if reader’s can spot the games which had particular moves.

Problem

Which famous game had 23…Qg3!! in it?

Solution

This took me a while: I “knew” it instantly, but couldn’t recall the players’ names, but then remembered Black was Frank Marshall:

Levitsky Stepan Mikhailovich - Marshall Frank James (23...Qg3!)

Levitsky v Marshall, Breslau 20.7.12
