Jan-20-05  Resignation Trap: After strategically outplaying his opponent for the entire game, Chigorin lost on time by failing to make his 30th move.

This was unfortunate for him, since after 30. Rxa7 or 30. c4, White should be able to win quite easily.

Unfortunate maybe, but self-inflicted. And not undeserved. Time is one more piece, and a pretty important one. If you blunder your time, you deserve to lose.
