Oct-27-05  offramp: Super-Nezh might have had a red hand over the heads of Tal and other major GMs, but not over Petrosian. The score in their encounters was +3 =2 to Petrosian.

  Garech: Great game from Petrosian - it's said that only players with the defensive capabilities of Iron Tigran or Korchnoi could stave off Nezhmetdinov's superb attacking abilities and beat him with any regularity. GG!
