- In the following game, that made him famous in the whole world, Leonid Stein demonstrated his imagination and attacking potential at its best. While his opponent was about to get a strategically winning position, Stein unexpectedly sacrificed a pawn and started a vicious attack. A pawn sacrifice was followed by a purely intuitive piece sacrifice, thanks to which Stein increased the pressure and eventually found a brilliant queen sacrifice after which his opponent's position collapsed.

Such a fascinating game. White was doing the usual in the KID- gaining great space on the queen side and center, and found a very good central square for his knight, and Black’s best chance is to launch a fierce king side attack. Sacrificing the pawn to move his formerly fianchettoed bishop to an attacking post, sacrificing what is theoretically the weakest piece in any army- the knight- for open lines and pressure against the enemy king, and then rolling his pawns forward where are excellent typical themes in this opening, and the final endgame mating net was a great touch to finish.
Thanks for finding and sharing this with us.
My pleasure, thank you for your comment.
Have a nice day.
Thanks chess wisdom for these incredible classic games. I have hooked onto your channel ever since the almighty RUclips algorithm brought your channel to me. Keep up the good work
My pleasure.
Good nights: still on board, and happy to learn enjoying with tempo these old match's, which instead are gteater than the present ones. Reason? No computers helped the players. So simple as that. Thank you indeed.
My pleasure.
More Stein. You are a great channel
Beautiful game, thank you.
My pleasure.
It was so instructive. Thanks
My pleasure.
Great play by black!
Please, sir, a suggestion: post games of Harry Nelson Pillsbury, one of the icons on beggining century 19...
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I've already made 2 videos on Pillsbury, you can find them among my recent videos. And I'm gonna make new ones soon, as I also like him.
one question in all these kings indian openings a common plan is to move the knight and then play f5... Why not just avoid moving the knight in the opening and playing f5 without wasting a tempo like ne7 instead of nf6
It's possible, but then it won't be the King's Indian, it will be the Dutch, Leningrad variation.
