A Little Known Gem By Alexander Alekhine

In this video I am analyzing an attacking game played by 23-year-old Alexander Alekhine vs Nikolay Zubarev! Just from the opening (Nimzo-Indian defense) Zubarev chooses a passive and waiting strategy while on the other hand as usual Alekhine plays confidently in a dynamic attacking style! Very soon once he gains huge space advantage and a very active position forces his opponent make mistakes and with a brilliant queen sacrifice blows apart opponent’s king-side! In the end of the video as usual you can solve the daily puzzle!
