  Phony Benoni: The Fajarowicz is not supposed to be especially sound, but Richter makes it look really good. By move 12, White is already worried about the threat of 12...Nd3+; after all, he hopes to castle some day. But 12.e3 Bxb1 13.Rxb1 Qe4 quickly rids him of that problem.

White survives one threat of ...Nd3+, but the second finishes him off. Any queen move protecting White's knight is answered by 24...Qxc5 and 25...Nd3+.

Richter was indeed a tactical whiz.
