✴️ Emanuel Lasker
German Chess Master
World Chess Champion for 27 years
🔰Emanuel Lasker was a German chess player, mathematician, and philosopher who was World Chess Champion for 27 years. In his prime, Lasker was one of the most dominant champions, and he is still generally regarded as one of the strongest players ever.
▪️ Full name: Emanuel Lasker
▪️ Country: Germany
▪️ Born: December 24, 1868
🔺Berlinchen, Prussia (now Barlinek, Poland)
▪️ Died: January 11, 1941 (aged 72)
🔺New York City, United States
▪️ World Champion: 1894–1921
🔰 After a prolonged period of somewhat strained relations due to Tarrasch’s refusal of Lasker’s offer for a match, Lasker accepted Tarrasch’s challenge for the title, and the Lasker - Tarrasch World Championship Match (1908) was played in Düsseldorf and Munich, with Lasker winning with 8 wins 3 losses and five draws. In 1910, Lasker came close to losing his title when he was trailing by a full point at the tenth and last game of the Lasker - Schlechter World Championship Match (1910) (the match being played in Vienna and Berlin); Schlechter held the advantage and could have drawn the game with ease on several occasions, however, he pursued a win, ultimately blundering a Queen endgame to relinquish his match lead and allow Lasker to retain the title. Some months later, the Lasker - Janowski World Championship Match (1910) - played in Berlin - was Lasker’s final successful defense of his title, winning with 8 wins and 3 draws.

38...Qf3??
White's position is preferable thus Black should attempt to get some counterplay with 38...g5! with the idea of ...Kg6 and ...Rh8.

31...Rd7?
Black is an exchange up, but his position is passive and the material advantage is compensated by White's bishop pair and his queenside pawn majority.
31...Rc6! = is correct.

Parham throws away the win.
73.Qf7!+ Kh6 74.e7 h1=Q 75.Qe6+ Kg7 76.e8=Q +-
73...h1=Q??
But Hakobyan returns the favor. He could have obtained a draw with:
73...Qxe7!
A)74.Qg4+ Kh8 75.Qh3+ Qh7 76.Qc8+ Kg7 77.Qb7+
B)74.Qh5 Qa7=

Probably Black had thought that by sacrificing his both queens a stalemate would have occurred!
