Nov-08-20 Sicilian, Fischer-Sozin Attack (B86)   dw98: Sozin was the first to analyze the opening. He questioned which was better, Nb1 or Na4, when black pushes the pawn to b4. Bobby decided Na4 was better. Sicilian, Fischer-Sozin with ...a6 and ...b5 (B87) is a better page for this discussion.      Aug-29-16 Illescas Cordoba vs E Dizdarevic, 2003   dw98: 48. ...RxR as well. The last moves must be recorded wrong.      Jun-07-13 N Pjatakhina vs A Saakova, 1967    dw98: <sleepyirv:> <Is Nh4 a thematic move in this opening? Presumably White played it for some purpose but it appears to mostly serve as a target to break up the pawns in front of the White King.> I agree.

How ironic that this is how Svidler got his ...      Jul-19-08 Hamppe vs Meitner, 1872    dw98: Heidenfeld's analysis is identical to mr.basso's given here earlier.      Apr-27-08 Igor Ivanov vs Kudrin, 1989    dw98: 30...Nxh7 31. Rxh7+ Kxh7 (31...Rxh7 32.Rg8#)32.Rh3+ Bh4 33.Rxh4#      Dec-17-07 Nunn vs Tal, 1988    dw98: "After 20...Nd5 21.Rxf7 Qxe3+ 22.Qxe3 Nxe3 23. Rd3 Black's knight will be lost to a discovered check."
