May-05-06   syracrophy: Some points of this game:

26...Ba6? <A blunder that allows white a winning attack. The idea of this move was to play 27...Bd3 putting white king on a mate net. There were excellent drawing chances with 26...e3!:

A) 27.Rhd1 e2 28.Nxe2 Qxe2 29.Rd8+ Ke7 30.R1d7+ Kxe6 31.Re8+ Kxd7 32.Rxe2 (=)

B) 27.Rxc7 e2! 28.Nxe2 Qxe2 29.Rxb7 Qe3+ drawing>

After 32...Qxb5 33.Rf8+ and its curtains down...

1-0

  Phony Benoni: Reshevsky seemed to have problems with any kind of Torre: E Torre vs Reshevsky, 1977

Quite possibly, he was the only person to play both of them.
