This game was played in London in 1912, at the City of London Chess Club. Playing White was Eduard Lasker (not to be confused with the then World Champion Emanuel Lasker) and playing Black was George Thomas, who, in addition to chess, also played badminton. My comments are based on the annotated game from John Saunders' Learn to Play Winning Chess: History, Rules, Skills and Tactics, annotated by Saunders himself. This is a quite a famous game, but most have only seen the checkmate at the end. It is very interesting to see how such a checkmate is actually achieved, as no queen is utilised or even possessed. Note that there is much disagreement concerning this game, in regards to when it was played, who played it, what the moves were, and so on. Here, I am going largely by Mr Saunders' version of the game. For more information on this game and its various discrepancies, see Edward Winter's Chaos in a Miniature.
