A sharp Queen's Gambit Accepted opening tempts Stahlberg into a piece sacrifice. He misses a decisive continuation but still emerges with a clear extra pawn. Some inaccuracies and strong defensive play from Book bring a draw back within Black's grasp but only the engines see the path!
Fascinating as ever. It would be interesting to see how many of these engine ideas were found by analysers at the time. Have we reached the stage where human analysis in old books and magazines is largely otiose?
Most of it was missed I'm afraid and most of the game flows were actually totally different to what people thought at the time (not so different during my time as a professional to be honest!) It's why it's so interesting to do it (and why Re-Engineering the Chess Classics was such a nice book to write) because there are many games that were used as examples in chess books of that era that turn out to have a completely different lesson to the one intended!
