A strong sacrifice to exploit the weak black King position.

🔸Nunn,John
🔸Wells,Peter
🔸England, 1980
📘 13.h4!
A very powerful pawn sacrifice. It will win either the g5 square ( since any ...h6 by black would be painfully open to sacrifices ) or the open h-file.

This pin is important. Otherwise black could play ...Nfd5 with a very comfortable outlook.

▪️ Alexander Alekhine
▪️ Chess Grandmaster

♦️ Alexander Alekhine was a Russian and French chess player and the fourth World Chess Champion. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest chess players of all time.

🔹 Full name: Alexander Alexandrovich Alekhine
🔹 Country: Russian Empire Soviet Union France
🔹 Born: October 31, 1892 Moscow, Russian Empire
🔹 Died: March 24, 1946 (aged 53) Estoril, Portugal
🔹 World Champion: 1927–35 1937–46

♦️Alekhine was born in Moscow, on 31 October 1892 (October 19th on the Russian calendar). Circa 1898, he was taught the game of chess by his older brother, Alexei Alexandrovich Alekhine (1888-1939). His life and chess career were highly eventful and controversial, spiced with two World Wars, including internments by the Germans and the Soviet Cheka (by whom he was marked for execution as a spy) at either end of WWI; subjection to suasion by, and suspicions of collaboration with, the Nazis in WWII; the deaths of his brother, Alexei, in 1939 and his sister, Varvara, in 1944; four marriages; five world championship matches; alcoholism; poor health during WWII and conspicuously failed World Championship negotiations with Capablanca. His eventful life and career terminated in strange circumstances in Portugal just hours after the details of the Alekhine-Botvinnik World Championship match were finalised.

♦️ A memorable game by Alekhine against Vidmar in 1911. This is one of the imformative games of Alekhine 👇🏼👇🏼
