Alekhine was known for never falling into a trap of less than 10 moves, but for
this example where he played against Niemzovitch with the black pieces ( game
#13 of his famous book "My best games of Chess 1908-1937") he wrote down after
white 15 Castles QR !
Black discovers in time the adversary's subtle plan  If 15...PXP; 16.PXP,KtxP
17.RXKt,QxR; 18.QXP ch, Kt-Q2; 19.Q-B6 ch!!, PxQ; 20.B-R6 Mate, but how many of
today's top proggram can find the correct move 15...B-Q3 which eliminates all
danger?
