Feb-27-06  WhiteSox: Certainly no need for Rustam to
choke Patrick Wolff here! This is
pretty much a clean sweep by Ilya.

Actually, why is there a body of
Sicilian theory (mostly referring
to the previous game with Benjamin)
that only seems to have been discovered by Ilya Gurevich?

I suspect it's just talent. That game
where he had to play ...f5 and
then even ...f4. He had no squares
at all except the d5 square for the
longest time - then went on to win.
He must have been worse there, tho.
