{The moves of this game were actually derived from game played between
Alekhine and Grigoriev in Moscow in 1915. The game, as listed here, is a fake.
It was never played. It is a pure concoction of Alekhine's. Exactly how
Alekhine created this game alone makes an interesting story, unearthed for the
first time by the American chess historian Dr. Buschke, in a series of
articles in Chess Life in the early fifties. In the original game which this
is derived from, Alekhine lost. Alekhine - Grigoriev' one of the most
successful hoaxes of chess history, there is also something else wrong with it.
It is a case of mass suggestion. The beautiful move 24.Rh6 which has earned
Alekhine countless exclamation marks, does not win."} 1. e4 {Although NN is
sometimes believed to stand for "no name", that is a misconception: it is in
fact an abbreviation of the Latin nomen nescio which means 'I do not know the
name.'} e6 {http://timkr.home.xs4all.nl/chess/al5q.htm} 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 Nf6 4.
