Aug-23-09		Gouvaneur: Nice game from both sides. This game reminds me of Tal-Fischer (Zagreb 1959). Not sure about the date of the game, but it had very similar interesting turns. Tal also played c6, and Fischer also managed to free his Kings Indian Bishop, by an exchange on f4 (I think he even sacrificed a pawn on g3 too.) Fischer lost that game though, Xie Jun did fine to draw against Korchnoi in this interesting game.
