A.J.'s pick of the best game for that month.

I now have a "Game of The Month" feature. This will be ONLY available here, on {or from} this web page. I am going to LIGHTLY (ha!) analyze a recent GM Game. The emphasis will be on a game that was played recently, and at least ONE of the participants will have to have been a recognized FIDE GM. "TWIC" will probably be the source for this venture.

March 18th, 2004. From now on, I will only list the current game, and the game from the previous month. But don't worry! I almost never throw stuff away. I have created an "Game Of the Month," ARCHIVES Page. On that page I will store all the 'old' games. (& links)

December, 2004: I have decided to greatly reduce this feature. [Read why.]

June, 2009: ALL Geo-Cities sites will be discontinued ... probably around the end of the summer. Therefore, my GOTM site has moved.

Games for 2011

- Game # 43 (October, 2011) First of all - its about time!!! After a nearly 4-6 year period when I was unable to work on this feature, (due to the many problems in my personal life); I finally have returned to my "Game of The Month" feature.

This month's game - in a departure from normal tradition - was not even picked by me. (Another user from the CG website - chose this one.) In my opinion, its a very brilliant game by a young GM ... who could someday be playing for the World Championships. (Maxim Rodshtein) It really is a fantastic game, and you should definitely check this one out! Thorough annotations, many links, and even a quick look at the theory of the Grunfeld Defense! [D74]
- Game # 44 (November, 2011) This is a monster game between two "Top Ten" GM's ... from a recent "Super-GM" event. (Black wins.)
- Game # 45 (December, 2011) A brilliant game, Black wins on the Black side of a King's Indian.

Games for 2012, Games for 2015

If you have seen an interesting game, that has been played recently, please bring it to my attention. Remember, I have to be able to verify this game in TWIC or ChessBase BEFORE I will even consider trying to annotate it!! (Page created August, 2003.)
