(19283) Alekhine,A - Maroczy,G [D55] Karlsbad Karlsbad, 1923 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 d5 4.Nc3 Be7 5.Bg5 0-0 6.e3 Ne4 7.Bxe7 Qxe7 8.Qb3 Nxc3 9.Qxc3 c6 10.Bd3 Nd7 11.0-0 f5 12.Rac1 g5 13.Nd2 Rf7 14.f3 e5 15.cxd5 cxd5 16.e4 fxe4 17.fxe4 Rxf1+ 18.Rxf1 exd4 19.Qc7 Kg7 20.Rf5 dxe4 21.Nxe4 Qb4 22.Rxg5+ 1-0 In the above game after move 12 for Black (g5) Alekhine in his notes says ".. quite astonishing from a Master of Maroczy's reputation." A couple of other GM's in their books, comment "Incredible" "What was the guy drinking" Well, I decided to run this through Fritz 5.32, Hiarcs 8, Fritz 8 and none of them even suggested Alekhin's followup even after letting them run for hours. This seems to be a position that Computers just don't understand like human GM's. Hooray, for the Carbon Base thinkers over the Silicon!
