Today we’re going to see the greatest king walk in the history of chess. It’s the very famous chess game played between Nigel Short and Jan Timman.
White "Nigel Short"
Black "Jan Timman"
A king walk in chess, also known as a king march, is when the king travels up around the board, especially with the idea of a mating attack against the opposing king. However, this seldom happens in practical games, as king safety is the primary concern.
The Alekhine Defense was played, and in the middlegame, Short exploited the dark-square weakness of Timman and created several holes there. The holes were large enough to fit the largest piece of the game, the King! And Short did just that -he brought his king into the game, took a march and checkmated his opponent.
