Game 42 in the book: a King's Knight's Opening played at Paris, August 1913, in which Alekhine has Black against J. de Rodzynski and annotates his own win.
6.Ng5Anticipating the gain of two Pawns. If at once: 6. B x P ch, Q x B; 7. Q x P, K—Q 2!; 8. Q x R, B x Kt; 9. P x B, Q x B P; 10. R—Kt 1, Q x K P ch; 11. K—Q 1, Q—B 6 ch; and Black has at least a draw, as White cannot move his K to Q B 2, on account of Kt—Kt 5 ch, etc.
6…Nh6After 7. Q x P, R—Q Kt 1; 8. Q—R 6, R—Kt 3; 9. Q—R 4, B—K 2; followed by Castles, Black would obtain a sufficient compensation in development in exchange for the Pawn sacrificed.
9…Kd7The sacrifice of the Exchange is entirely sound and yields Black a strong counter-attack.
11.f3Evidently forced.
11…Bxf3By this unexpected combination Black secures the advantage in any event. Incorrect would be, however, 10. ....Kt—Q 5; because of 11. P—Q 3, Q x Q P; 12. P x Kt, B x P; 13. Kt—B 3!, etc.
13.d3This move loses at once. The only chance was perhaps: 13. P x Kt, with the following variation: 13. ....Q x B ch; 14. K—K 2, Q x R; 15. P—Q 5, Q x R P ch; 16. K—Q 3, Q—Kt 8!; 17. Q—B 6 ch, K—Q 1, etc., but Black's position is manifestly superior.
14…Be7On this move White has the choice between the loss of the Queen or mate. He prefers the latter.
