▪️ Emanuel Lasker
▪️ German Chess Grandmaster
♦️ 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
♦️Lasker's contemporaries used to say that he used a "psychological" approach to the game, and even that he sometimes deliberately played inferior moves to confuse opponents. Recent analysis, however, indicates that he was ahead of his time and used a more flexible approach than his contemporaries, which mystified many of them. Lasker knew contemporary analyses of openings well but disagreed with many of them. He published chess magazines and five chess books, but later players and commentators found it difficult to draw lessons from his methods.
♦️A memorable and informative game by Lasker in New York 1924 against Alexander Alekhine👇🏼👇🏼

📘 11.Ne1?!
Tunisian international master has hurried to launch his plan. He should have first played 11.c3 or 11.a3.
11...Qa5!
Ghaem Magham has very well exploited the white's dubious move.

📘 21.Qe3!
A multi-purpose move:
- limiting the ability of the black knight due to pin by White e3-queen.
- Preventing dxe5 in view of 22.Na4.
- And now the strong idea of f5-f6 is possible for white.

📕 14...Bxc3!
A fine piece of realism. Black is faced with the threat of Nd5 as well as the possibility of a well-timed combination of e5, b3, Ne4 etc which can put him under serious pressure.

📕 21...Rc4!
A great tribute to the importance of the center. An exchange sacrifice to release mobile center pawns is by no means unheard of, but it is striking that black's compensation suffices here. Note too that the exchange of the bishop on a2 rather weakens white's light squares on the queenside.
