  FSR: Letelier usually lost to Najdorf. http://www.chessgames.com/perl/ches... When he won, he did it by sacking all his pieces and winning brilliantly - as in this game and the amazing Letelier vs Najdorf, 1954.
Nov-29-11  King Death: Najdorf could have tried 14...hg5 15.Bg5 d4 16.Na4 Be7. I don't know what White has after that, though Black could keep the tension in the center too. With Black's hold on the kingside dark squares, he should have a good game. If 16.Ne2 to attack the king, maybe ...Rb8 and ...Be7.

  perfidious: This game is POTD material: Tuesday/Wednesday type before the final blow or more on the lines of Saturday after Najdorf's fourteenth move, the fruit of a strategically plausible but tactically flawed idea.
