    Nimzowitsch defeats Mannheimer in Frankfurt in 1930 in a game that highlights Nimzowitsch's strategic play and humor. After some early standard opening moves by both sides, White develops an incurable weakness on the light squares. Nimzowitsch skillfully maneuvers his knights to exploit this weakness. Despite White's efforts, Black builds up pressure through central pawns and maneuvers his queen to ultimately capture White's a-pawn, winning the game. The finish contains some humorous touches as Black promotes his pawn and checks White's king to claim the victory.
