  parisattack: Yes, indeed. Nicely played by Pachman. So many popular games show him on the losing side but he played some nice games 50s, early 60s.
Jun-26-11  SimonWebbsTiger: Pachman is god! Well...not quite. It's worth remembering he scored +2=4-2 against Fischer. The wins were at Mar del Plata and Santiago in 1959. The latter has the best pawn centre in history

The "god" bit is about his classic <Complete Chess Strategy> (3 volumes, published in the 70s by Batsford).

  Sastre: Yes, Black has a won endgame. If 96.Bxd5, 96...Kxd5 97.Kg3 g4 wins. If White doesn't exchange bishops, 96...h2 wins.
