| refutor: Deep theory is right! The game Kasparov vs Gennadi Timoshchenko, 1981 which looks *very* similar for the most part to this game took place earlier in the same tournament. Refer to Kasparov's "Test of Time" for more details Dorfman's 30. ... Be5 was an improvement on Timoschenko's 30. ... e5 |

| Honza Cervenka: <refutor> It means that Timoshchenko lost his game over the board and Dorfman at home (or in hotel room).:-) |

| Orbitkind: That's what I thought too refutor; it's extremely similar to that other game. |

| hedgeh0g: Haha, glad to hear I'm not the only one who noticed the striking similarity. In my opinion, memorising a 30-move sequence and then just playing it out move-for-move on the board defeats the purpose of playing chess. I mean, technically speaking, you're not even playing your own game! |

| Jim Bartle: For some it's "memorising a 30-move sequence"; for others it's "having good opening preparation." |

| ketchuplover: I like 29.Rc7+ |

| Underworld: <ketchuplover> 29.Rc7+ doesn't work due to: 29.Rc7+ Bxc7 30.Qxc7+ Ke8 and the trip is over b/c the knight on a5 is proctecting the c6 square needed to do another check. Overall it would be a failed attempt. |
