Hi all,

Just returned home from Leiden, where I am operating Tiger. The game vs. Nimzo
was truly amazing. In sort notice the following happened:

1. The opening went clearly better for Tiger Gambit, leading to a big advantage.
2. The move 26 Nc5 looked very attractive, but then the attack somehow couldn't
be continued.
3. Suddenly Tiger Gambit came up with the amazing exchange sac 43 Rc6!!? Nimzo
took it, evaluating +1, Tiger didn't expect Blacj to take and scored +2,5 after
44 bxc6.
4. To me it was absolutely not clear how Tiger was going to force through the
attack. The more: c6 seemed to be weak, so I was getting quite nervouss...
5. For some ten moves the scores remained the same: Tiger showed +1,5 to +2,5,
while Nimzo believed Black was better by +0,50 to +1.
6. In the course of the game Tiger proved absolutely right: It improved its
position, Nimzo couldn't move anything, without losing.
7. In the end it was a massacre, with the Black king hunted over the board,
losing a piece and the game.

A truly AMAZING game by Tiger!!
