The
Random Game feature at

| der Spittelmarkt, Berlin 1868 |
Today's game is a chance to look at an opening not so often seen,
From's Gambit in Bird's Opening. The line is named for England's
Henry Edward Bird who may have
first played his opening against
Ernst Falkbeer, and Denmark's
Martin Severin From who is credited with the gambit in
this game. Here we see
Johannes Zukertort against the little-known
Schmidt in a game played in Berlin in 1868. There's plenty of action, so be sure to read the game notes and make some of your own.
