Max Euw was a teacher in Amsterdam and not in Rotterdam

(This talk seems to be obsolete; it's old, and the article now says that he taught in both places.)

Should indicate in which year/ tournament Euwe and Fischer got (+1-1=1).

Euwe scored highly in several tournaments that are not mentioned in the entry, e.g. Groningen 1946 (with Botvinnik). Asoane 12:38, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Someone should add a game or two. Krakatoa 01:47, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

When did Euwe ever beat Fischer? Rocksong 07:58, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

I added the game to the article, it deserves it. --Ioannes Pragensis 11:20, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
OK, but I think Euwe's lifetime record against Fischer doesn't deserve to be in the article. They played 3 times, twice when Fischer was 14, way before Fischer's peak. It's a bit like saying one of Botvinnik's greatest achievements was a lifetime 50% against Fischer. (p.s. I have no objection to including the game, however).
Yes, but it was way after Euwe's peak, too - You are true that this is not much important but perhaps still interesting for somebody. --Ioannes Pragensis 12:27, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New game

Can someone add the game between Geller and Euwe in 1953?

[edit] Chess Archives?

Euwe was intimately involved in a long-standing chess openings publication called (I believe) Chess Archives. It was a serial distribution of loose-leaf pages intended to be inserted in one or more special binders, adding to or replacing other pages, to keep the reader up-to-date on opening theory. This was prior ECO or even the Informant, i.e., 40 and more years ago. It must have been the basis for his several books on chess openings. Does anyone have any solid info on this? --Wfaxon 13:51, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
