P. Lalić – Wall, Thames Valley League Knockout Cup 2022-23

I was alerted by Twitter to an interesting game earlier this week involving Gavin Wall, which comes with an even more interesting annotation. The game was against Peter Lalić in a club knockout match in London, and the annotation is by John Saunders, associate editor of CHESS magazine and founder of the BritBase archive.

The full annotation is given at Kingston C.C.’s web site; it includes some discussion of the difference between the best engine moves and the best human moves, with application to this game.

The game, without any of the notes, has been added to the archive here.
