    Inventors of modern Chess Strategy - Part IIBy Curt Hansen

    Now and again there has been some talk about how strong masters from the past were, compared to top players

    today. I think it is rather difficult to compare players not living at the same time. Chessplayers learn from the players from

    the past, so of course their strategic understanding and opening play will always be better than the masters that came

    before themselves.

    An interesting task however, is to try to get an idea about who the real inventors of modern chess were/are. This can

    be done by tracing some of the somewhat more extravagant ideas we have come to take for granted today.The idea of exchanging the king's fianchetto bishop (Bg2/Bg7) for the Nc3/Nc6 has been played all through chess

    history, however, only in particular games. The idea of playing g2-g3 and Bf1-g2/g7-g6 and Bf8-g7 is in most situations to

    have a safe setup on the kingside. Therefore exchanging the fianchetto bishop unprovoked is indeed an original idea.

    This possibility - as any other move - has to be based on concrete variations. What are the positive factors and what are

    the negative effects? Since it is only possible to calculate a limited number of moves, one often has to fall back on

    general evaluations of the positions that can arise. It is these evaluations that have changed over the years. It is quite

    clear that this creative and somewhat provocative exchange is only good under special circumstances. Only few pawn

    structures would make this idea strong. However, experience shows that exchanging the fianchetto bishop is worth a

    thought in more types of positions than top players were aware of - say a 100 years ago. In fact around 1900 even the

    idea of a bishop fianchetto was a new thing that not every top player had a high opinion about. The strong German

    player Richard Teichmann for instance called the double fianchetto "that stupid doublehole opening". Of course, from

    that view it is quite a long way to the idea of even exchanging the fianchetto bishop .

    In this article I will try to show some steps in the evolution that followed since Teichmann. From the first somewhat

    feeble tries to fine games and also not so fine games which nonetheless - in my opinion - improved our understanding of

    when it is a interesting and possibly good idea to part with the fianchetto bishop. I will focus on games that I find

    strategically interesting, even if some of them were more of a "experimenting value". They are choosen according to the

    following criteria: 1) the exchange Lg2xNc6/Lg7xNc3 does not immediately win material (however, there are a few

    exceptions in this article) 2) the queens stay on the board for some time after the exchange - because in the endgame

    there is nothing especially original in playing Bg2xNc6 3) when White exchanges his Bg2, Black still has his

    white-squared bishop (Bc8) and keeps it for some time which means there has to be made an evaluation of which is more

    important - weakening the opponents queenside structure or the potential danger to ones own kingside. (Similarly if Black

    plays Bg7xc3, White has - and keeps - the Bc1 for some time)

    My inspiration for this article - or the starting point at the very least - has been a game by my contrymen Bent Larsen.

    He has been involved in remarkably many games where Bg2xNc6/Bg7xNc3 was played. The first game ever where I took

    notice of this idea was Larsen,B - Betancort Curbelo,J 1-0from 1976. In the diagram position below the Danish

    grandmaster played 8.Bxc6!? bxc6 9.f4! and won an interesting battle. Stopping Black from playing d7-d6 and e6-e5 isof outmost importance, so White' s 9.f4 was part of a "grand strategy". According to Larsen himself in the Danish

    chessmagazine "Skakbladet", he was inspired by Golombek-Portisch 1965 - see later in this article.

    It seems to me that the none to obvious 8.Bxc6!? in that game was part of a evolution, beginning with

    Berger,J - Mackenzie,G -from 1887. In that game Black played 15..Bxc3 16.bxc3 Ne5 and got a fine position where

    the strong knight on e5 neutralised any white attacking chances, while the first player had weak pawns

    on c3 and e4.

    3/89

    Also in the game Bier,X - Carls,C 0-1from 1905 Black got good play by 18..Bxc3 19.bxc3 Nc6 because White's

    pawns are quite weak and his Bf2 can hardly do any damage to the black king.

    One of the first top players who experimented with the exchange of the fianchetto bishop was Jacques Mieses.

    Even though some of the positions he got were okay, the results were bad. Interesting wasCohn,E - Mieses,J 1-0 from

    1912 where Mieses played 10..Bxc3, probably with the idea 11.bxc3 exd5 12.exd5 0-0 with a reasonable game. However

    his opponent decided to sacrifice a pawn with 11.dxe6 Qxe6 12.bxc3 Qxe4 13.Re1 Qc6 14.Bf2 and won quickly because

    Black "forgot" to play the good defensive manouvre Na6-c7-e6.

    Other Mieses-games: Capablanca,J - Mieses,J 1-0, Johner,P - Mieses 1-0, Rubinstein,A - Mieses,J 1-0,

    Mieses - Landau 1-0

    Very original but still searching for a real understanding of when it is good to exchange Bg2 for Nc6 was Tartakower in

    Tartakower,S - Gruenfeld,E 1-0in 1922. White won the game, but I dont think 8.Bxc6+ bxc6 9.bxc3 was a very goodidea. The white squares on the kingside (and queenside!) are simply to weak.

    4/89

    There was a lot more point in Black's play in Reti,R - Walter,J 1-0from 1925. Black lost, but his strategy was

    modern - although he should not have tried so hard to win the c4-pawn. Keeping control of the position is often

    much more important.

    The above mentioned game with Tartakower must have made some impression on Grnfeld. In

    Gruenfeld,E - Bohatirchuk,F -from 1925 he decided to weaken Black's pawn position with 14.Bxc6 bxc6

    15.Nd3. However, I do not think White was well enough coordinated to be better. But Black proceededvery optimistically,

    so the first player had a good position after 18.Bxf4.

    To me the first player who really understood when to part with the fianchetto bishop and when not seems to be

    Salo Flohr. The first example is from 1927:Opocensky,K - Flohr,S 0-1.

    Another example:Thelen,B - Flohr,S 0-1- though here 11..h5 was somewhat strange.

    The first example of a typical King' s Indian idea was inFlohr,S - Bogoljubov,E 1-01932, albeit not in its optimal form.

    5/89

    The first example of a typical King' s Indian idea was inFlohr,S - Bogoljubov,E 1-01932, albeit not in its optimal form.

    After 18..Bxc3 19.bxc3 White's pieces - and especially the Be3 - have access to d4, and so his chances are better.

    A relative modern approach from both players was seen in:Gerschenkron,A - Hoenlinger,B 0-1from 1934 where Black

    first weakened White's pawn structure with 7..Bxc3+ 8.bxc3 and followed up consequently by attacking c3 with 8..Qa5.

    White realized that his Bc1 would be much stronger without the pawn on c3, and sacrificed it straight away. Many new

    ideas in one game.

    Similar ideas were seen in Teschner - Gligoric 0-1, Sandor,B - Joppen,E -, Sandor,B - Hajtun,J 1-0and

    Darga,K - Toran,R 1-0.

    Jumping somewhat ahead in chess history - judged from some games for many years it seemed none to obvious that if

    the player with doubled c-pawns wants to give up one of these pawns, it should be c3(c6) in order to give more scope tothe Bc1(Bc8). Only 18..Rc5?! gave White reasonable chances from a dubious position in

    Polugaevsky,L - Averbakh,Y 0-11960. Also in Larsen,B - Van der Wiel,J 1-01980, Black lost/gave up the wrong

    c-pawn, although that example was less straight forward as better pieceplay and some fine tactical play by White was

    also important.

    Also the new and upcoming star of the 30s tried the Bg2xNc6 idea:Keres,P - Laht,E 1-0saw 10.Bxc6+ bxc6

    11.Sge4, though play very soon became tactical afterwards.

    6/89

    A very nice game wasEberl,H - Samisch,F 0-11937, where 15..Bxc3!? 16.bxc3 Qa6! showed a very

    fine understanding of Black's strategical possibilities.

    A similar and strong setup was used inBernstein,A - Saidy,A 0-1from 1955 and to some degree in

    Unzicker,W - Euwe,M -from 1958.

    Also Petrov,V - Keres,P 1-0from 1938 showed a modern understanding of king safety versus pawn weaknesses. White

    played 24.Bxc6!? bxc6 25.Qd4.

    A nice example of a strong knight covering the vital squares around the king after the exchange of the Bg2 was seen

    in Landau,S - Szabo,L 1-0from 1939 where 17.Bxc6 bxc6 18.Be3 gave White some edge.

    Both from a theoretical and strategical point of view the gameRagozin,V - Botvinnik,M 0-1from 1940

    was quite important. Black showed that 10..Bxc3+ 11.bxc3 dxc4 was a strong way to play.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    7/89

    Similar ideas were played in Rossolimo,N - Seidman,H -from 1954 and Haag - Honfy -from 1956,

    Galardini - Silli 1-0and Primavera - Silli 1-0both from 1964, Keres,P - Kavalek,L 1-01965,

    Fuester,G - Jimenez Zerquera,E 0-11966, Portisch,L - Schmidt,W 1-01972, Hamann,S - Jansa,V 1-01975 and

    Knudsen,P - Brinck-Claussen,B -1981.

    One of the first tries to exchange the Bg7 with the idea of blocking out the Bc1 - however unsuccessful - was seen in

    Guimard,C - Luckis,M 1-0where Black played 13..Bxc3 14.bxc3 Nf6. The potential possibility of e3-e4 opening up the

    position gave him problems. Similar wasSzekely,P - Rigo,J 1-0, even though here Black was the one to force through

    e7-e5 in a game where both sides played somewhat strange. Much later games showed that that this type of pawn

    structure was probably playable with no e-pawns on the board: Diaz,J - Matulovic,M 0-11976.

    Interesting was the gameAlekhine,A - Sanz,J 1-0from 1945 where the world champion showed that when White has notcastled, the weakness of the doubled c-pawns is more important than the weakness of the white squares on the kingside.

    White played 11.Bxc6 bxc6 12.Be3.

    One of the first examples of the Bg7 being exchanged in a Sicilian type of postion wasBolbochan,J - Rossetto -from

    1945, where 20..Bxc3 21.bxc3 Sg7 gave Black a more or less reasonable position. However, as with many fine

    inventions, I believe Black's idea come about a bit by accident - he was trying to avoid a white knight coming to d5

    (20..Sef6/Sdf6 21.g5).

    8/89

    A fine prelude to Larsen's game given as the first example in this article isStoltz,G - Van den Tol,T 1-0from 1946.

    Very important in both games is the fact that White's f-pawn - at least the first couple of move after Bg2xc6 - stops Black

    from opening the position for the Bc8 with e6-e5.

    Just like in the second example from 1887 there was a game from Parnu 1947 which showed that a strong knight on

    e5 often can render the white bishop's control over the squares g5 and h6 useless. InSimagin,V - Kotov,A 0-1

    black played 16..Bxc3 17.bxc3 Rxb1 18.Rxb1 Qa5 with strong play against White's pawns on the queenside.

    One of the first examples of Bg2xc6 in the Catalan opening was seen in the Soviet Championship of 1947 in the game

    Alatortsev,V - Kasparian,G -. However, with to black bishops in an open position White was running a very

    considerable risk.

    A surprisingly modern approach was seen inPoschel - Heitner 1-0from the American Championship of 1948:

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    9/89

    and similarly in Smyslov,V - Lilienthal,A 1-0from 1950, O'Kelly De Galway,A - Voiculescu,P -from 1954

    Geller,E - Keller,D 0-11956 and Sanguineti,R - Dobkin 1-0from 1956.

    In 1952 it was again Botvinnik (Ragozin,V - Botvinnik,M 0-1) who exchanged his fianchetto bishop, but in a different type

    of position than in 1939 Botvinnik,M - Goldenev 1-0.

    Also interesting was Levenfish Grigory - Novotelnov Nikolay 0-1from 1952, where Black with 8..Bxc3+ 9.bxc3

    Sf6! improved on 9..fxe4 fromBalogh,J - Pelikan,J -from 1949 and got a playable position.

    If Black tries to hold on to his doubled c-pawns, he may succeed in just that but will most likely get a passive postion:

    Kortchnoi,V - Bivshev,V 1-0from 1952 and similarlyNielsen,A - Trifunovic -and Taimanov - Suetin 1-0both from

    1954, Panno,O - Strauss,D 1-01976.

    Slightly similar to the earlier mentioned gameCohn,E - Mieses,J 1-0was Djaja,D - Trifunovic,P 0-1from 1952, where

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    10/89

    Slightly similar to the earlier mentioned gameCohn,E - Mieses,J 1-0was Djaja,D - Trifunovic,P 0-1from 1952, where

    Black got a good center-pawn for a rook-pawn after 17..Bxc3 18.bxc3 Qxe4 - in addition White had very weak queenside

    pawns.

    Surprisingly enough, even if the player with the doubled c-pawns gets his position stabilized, his pawns protected in a

    reasonable way and maybe even some active piece play, it is still not easy for him in the long term:

    Grob,H - Kupper,J 1-0from 1954 or Betak,M - Ujtelky,M 0-11955 Durao,J - O'Kelly,A 0-1and

    Quinteros,M - Fischer,R 0-11970, the latter game having a great influence, I believe. Later followed:

    Uhlmann,W - Ivkov,B 0-11972, Dunkelblum,A - Miles,A 0-11972, Tukmakov,V - Stean,M 0-11972,

    Polgar,I - Forintos,G 0-11972, Petrosian,T - Szabo,L 1-01972, Furman,S - Smejkal,J -1975,

    Baumgartner,H - Kortchnoi,V 0-11978, Larsen,B - Frenkel,O 1-01984.

    However, it is important to take note of the significance of controlling c4(c5) in this type of position where White plays

    Bg2xc6 (or Black Bg7xc3). This is shown in the gamesBertok,M - Lukic,A 1-01955,Teschner,R - Troianescu,O 1-0

    1957, Bolbochan,J - Bertok,M -from 1962 and Munoz,C - Rojas Sepulveda,E 1-0from 1969, where Bg7xc3 was no

    success. Also in Garcia,R - Rubinetti,J 1-01973, I think Black had a good position.

    A good example of how one should play when the opponent parts with his fianchetto bishop is

    Porreca,G - Matanovic,A 0-1from 1954, where White energetically opened the postion and probably had fine

    compensation for the pawn.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    11/89

    White also played h2-h4 in Bialas,W - Pirc,V 0-11955, but his play was weaker because he allowed the exchange of his

    black-squared bishop.

    in Volga gambit postions, the remarkable idea of playing Bg7xc3 followed up by blocking out White's Bc1 with f7-f6

    was probably seen for the first time - with colours reversed - in Behrensen,J - Sanguineti -1955 (see diagram

    below). In a real Volga gambit game this idea had its debut inGligoric,S - Diez del Corral -as late as 1970 and again

    in Keres,P - Pohla -1971 and Gligoric,S - Damjanovic,M -1977, while White probably got a very good version

    due to Black's lack of real pressure or control over vital queenside squares in Kolbak,J - Shaw,T 1-01974

    Extremely provocative was Black's play inBorisenko - Tal,M 1-0from 1955. Black parted with his fianchetto bishop just

    to be able to a tempo by attacking White's knight with his b-pawn. This opening-idea was really based on very concrete

    variations, and the second time around Black showed that his slight lead in development made it possible to put strong

    pressure on d5 ensuring him a fine position:Lebedev - Tal,M 0-1. Later followedAntoshin - Tal,M -,Koblenz - Kagan !, Najdorf,M - Larsen,B 1-0, Giustolisi - Tal,M 0-1, Shaposhnikov - Kosenkov,

    Van den Berg,C - Kortchnoi,V 0-1and Tukmakov,V - Zhidkov,V -.

    A better version of the idea played in the earlier mentioned gameFlohr,S - Bogoljubov,E 1-01932 was seen in

    Bronstein,D - Petrosian,T -1956 (diagram below) and - hesitantly - found followers in similar situations:

    Reshevsky,S - Gligoric,S -1960, Wexler,B - Rubinetti,J -1964, Filip,M - Langeweg,K -1965,

    Cafure - Panno 0-11965, Donner,J - Petrosian,T -1966, Uhlmann,W - Larsen,B -1969, Timman,J - Tal,M 0-1

    1973 and Fries Nielsen,J - Mestel,A -1984.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    12/89

    A rather weird and extreme version of Tal's idea wasKotov,A - Petrosian,T -from 1957 where Black chose 8..Bxc3

    9.dxc3 Be6 - and the players agreed draw. Was this meant as a parody or should this be taken seriously? Another

    strange example:Kolvig,B - Hamann,S 1-0.

    More interesting in my opinion was Black's play in Borisenko,G - Nezhmetdinov,R 0-1from 1957, where 6..Bxc3+

    7.bxc3 Qa5 8.Qb3 Ngf6 followed by Nb6 gave him good play because c4 is so weak.

    Even with firm control of the square c4(c5 as black) one should think twice of playing Bg2xNc6 (Bg7xNc3) if it

    involves playing with two knights against two bishops. Sooner or later the position will open up and Black could easily

    get into big trouble as in Szabo,L - Sherwin,J 1-01958 where 13..Bxc3 14.bxc3 Nc5 was not such a good idea. White's

    bishops were also to strong in Borisenko,G - Peterson,A 1-0and Pomar,A - Pfleger,H 1-0

    Remarkable - and not quite logical - was the play in Geller Efim P - Spassky,B -from 1959. First Black goes for

    14..Bxc3 15.bxc3 Ng7, and a couple of moves later he opens up the position completely for White's bishops with

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    13/89

    14..Bxc3 15.bxc3 Ng7, and a couple of moves later he opens up the position completely for White's bishops with

    d6-d5. This is another example of chess based on very concrete lines. You really have to know what you are doing

    if you play like Tal did with Bg7xc3 above - or Spassky in this game.

    In Neikirkh,O - Bobotsov,M -from 1959 the second player was probably also inspired by Tal's Bg7xc3, but

    what is the point of exchanging the strong Bg7? I dont see what he gets in return. I have the same opinion

    about Goldenberg,E - Eliskases 0-1from 1960 and Geller,E - Langeweg,K 1-01962, though Black's position may be

    playable in some of these examples.

    I have given some examples earlier which show that Black should not fight with two knights against the bishop pair

    beginning with Bg2xNc6 (Bg7xNc3). However, if the position is closed, it may be an entirely different story:

    Hamann,S - Geller,E 0-11960. The question is whether White should have allowed the position to get completely

    closed. Trying to open things up with 14.dxe6 was certainly worth a thought. For example inFlorian - Flesch 1-0,Cuellar,H - Tal,M 0-11973, Bukic,E - Stull,N 1-01975, Marttala,T - Ivarsson,S 1-01979, Jakobsen,O - Hoi,C 1-0

    1980, Ligterink,G - Davies,N -, and Spassky,B - Zuger,B -1984.

    Often when the fianchetto-bishop is exchanged, you get a fantastic square for the knight on c4(c5). If you have

    two good knights - because White's f5-pawn makes f6-f5 impossible - then it is a dream position:

    Matulovic,M - Janosevic,D 1-01960.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    14/89

    Until now there only was one example of exchanging the Bg7 in the King's Indian. In the beginning of the sixties some

    new ideas in that opening started to appear: Maslov - Gipslis,A 0-11962, and similarly in Liptai - Spassky 0-1,

    Mikenas Vladas - Polugaevsky,L 0-1, Christensen,J - Jesso,K 1-0, Tatai,S - Penrose,J 0-1,

    Gasztonyi,E - Honfi,K 1-0, Forintos - Szabo 1-0, Forintos - Damjanovic 1-0, Gasztonyi,E - Haag,E -,

    Osmanagic,K - Tringov,G 0-1Soloviev - Wexler 1-0Forintos,G - Gligoric,S - Kubicek,A - Trapl,J -

    Besser,H - Haakert,J 1-0, Sallay - Shaposhnikov 1-0, Koc - Kogan,B 0-1, Roensch,I - Hoelzlein,C 0-1,

    Forintos,G - Torre,E 0-1, Brilla Banfalvi,S - Napolitano,D 1-0.

    Also during the early sixties, in the same position suddenly appeared the idea of stopping (the pawn sacrifice) f4-f5

    opening lines for the Bc1 forever by f7-f5, thereby limiting the active possibilities of both White's bishop c1 and Black's

    bishop c8: Vladimirov,B - Gligoric,S -from 1963, Gasztonyi,E - Ozsvath,A -, Freeman,M - Ikhagva -,

    Hadri,A - Fuller,M

    -

    , Forintos,G - Gligoric,S

    -

    , Bezerra,E - Ortega,J 0-1and Minic - Janosevic 0-1.The fact that Gligoric switched between playing f7-f5 and not advancing his f7-pawn makes it difficult to find out what this

    great expert thought was best.

    Bent Larsen's interest in these double-edged positions seem to have started in the first half of the sixties, though I realize

    I have already given the gameNajdorf,M - Larsen,B 1-0earlier in this article. In 1963 I think the experiment -

    though he did not lose - was a rather risky one: Brinck Claussen,B - Larsen,B -(also Hora,V - Szakall,F -).

    Another somewhat dubious idea was also played one of the first times in 1963:Robatsch,K - Van Scheltinga,T 1-0-

    Black wins a pawn with 5..Bxc3+, but White has very strong bishops. Other examples:Kaplan,J - Yepez,O 0-11966,

    Ghizdavu,D - Kaplan,J 0-11966, Klovsky,R - Veresov Gavriil 1-01967, Ciocaltea,V - Ostojic,P 1-01968,

    Velickovic,S - Sax,G 0-11972, Pilnik - Cuartas 1-01973, Sax - Gasztonyi -1973, Spraggett,K - Day,L 0-11977

    and Zapata,A - Gutierrez,J 0-11978.

    15/89

    Also interesting - and maybe the first example of exchanging the fianchettoed bishop in a closed Sicilian type of position -

    was Golombek,H - Portisch,L -1965 (see diagram below). The Hungarian grandmaster played a somewhat similar

    idea in Smyslov,V - Portisch,L -1971.

    The following diagram also shows a new idea at the time fromSaidy,A - Byrne,D 1-01966, where

    9.Bxc6 bxc6 10.Bh6 gave White good chances. The same scheme was seen inPetrosian,T - Schmidt,W 1-01972,

    White's play in the unknown game Sakharov - Reshko Aron G 1-0from 1966 - 7.Bxc6+ bxc6 8.f4! - may have inspired

    future generations, although the idea (with colours reversed) was only seen again many years later. See the end

    of this article.

    Interesting was Timman,J - Barendregt,J 0-1once again questioning what is more important - Black's better pawn

    structure or the weakening of the dark squares on the kingside after 6..Bxc3+ 7.bxc3 e5. This was also tested in

    Gheorghiu,F - Barendregt,J -and Kavalek,L - Barendregt,J 1-0.

    A new step in the evolution of understanding the Maroczy setup wasStein,L - Matulovic,M -from 1967 where

    Black did not even want to play against White's weak c-pawns. He exchanged on c3 and voluntarily played d7-d5 a few

    moves later. This was repeated in Litinskaya,M - Baumstark,G -1976.

    Around the end of the 60s some players realized that without the g-pawn the kingside position was already weakened

    enough, so if Black had not castled he should probably not seek shelter for king on that side of the board anyway.

    Therefore exchanging the fianchettoed bishop was not a great loss. However, the first attempt was not succesful and

    maybe not so well-timed:Barczay,L - Szilagyi,G 1-0. But later Black's fearless approach was rewarded inLevy - Basman 0-1and Georgadze,T - Cordes,H -.

    Bent Larsen again played a original idea inO'Kelly,A - Larsen,B 0-11969, where 26..Bxc3 27.bxc3 f5 ultimately won

    Black the game mainly because of White's passively placed Bg1.

    17/89

    A stunning idea was seen in Petrosian,T - Kortchnoi,V 1-01971, when the ex-world champion considered the weakness

    of the opponent's dark squares e5 and c5 as more important than the fianchetto bishop - and won a impressive and

    important game:

    In the earlier mentioned gameStein,L - Matulovic,M -from 1967, Black exchanged the Bg7 for the Nc3 and did not

    even try to capitalize on White's weak c-pawns. A few moves later he played d7-d5. Another version of this thought was

    seen in Brasket,C - Berry,D -1972, where Black helped his opponent to get rid of his doubled c-pawns with 12..Bxd5

    13.cxd5 Ne5. Instead he tried to make use of White's weaknesses in the c-linie and his better developement. Similar were

    Dorfman,I - Swic,W 1-01978 and to some extent Kortchnoi,V - Bohm,H 1-0.

    The game Spassky,B - Fischer,R -1972 does not quite fit the definitions given at the start of this article since Black

    actually grabs a pawn. However, I believe an idea presented in a game from a world championship match always has a

    big impact, so I have made an exception. This idea was later seen inGligoric,S - Hort,V 0-11972. Though the position is

    different, there are obvious parallels between Fischer's play and Black's moves inManetta,J - Suttles,D 0-11973, and

    since a number GM commentators criticized Fisher for giving up the exchange, there were of course games where Blacktried to keep his Rf8: Mammola - Micheli 0-1. There were also encounters were the f-linie was kept closed with the

    remarkable gxf5, e.g.Welling - Groth 0-11975.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    18/89

    An interesting attempt to defend the king in a Sicilian type of position - by exchanging the fianchetto bishop! - was seen in

    Mukhin,M - Taimanov,M -1972, where 18..exf5 19.Nd5 did not appeal to Black who therefore chose 18..Bxc3 with

    the idea 19.bxc3 exf5. Similar wasShephard,C - Taulbut,S 0-1from 1977.

    Also Bokuchava,A - Rashkovsky,N 0-11972 saw a remarkable experiment, that is 6..Bxc3+ 7.bxc3 Nf6 8.Bd3 d5.

    Interesting countermeasures by White in a slightly different position were seen inTimman,J - Miles,A 1-01977 and

    Boersma,P - Miles,A 0-11982. In the better version fromSvenn,M - Donaldson,J -1980,

    Vogt,L - Garcia Martinez,S 0-1 1983, Zapata,A - Garcia Martinez,S 1-0and Michalek,F - Hlavac,R 0-1Black seemed to

    be fine, but the critical test was Tischbierek,R - Marosi,G 1-01983.

    The same exchange, but with colours reversed and without the follow-up d2-d4, was seen inJacobsen,B - Rellstab,L 1-0

    1972. Further examples were Weyerstrass - Scheeren,F 0-11977, Vallifuoco,G - Trabattoni -1981,

    Shamkovich,L - Fedorowicz,J -1982.

    Remarkable was a idea in the Pirc Defense which was tried in three games in the year 1977 - I dont know which one

    was played first: Yurtaev,L - Karasev,V -, Faibisovich,V - Karasev,V 0-1and Geller,E - Kuzmin,G 0-1

    And then in 1978, it was again Bent Larsen who played the very inspired gameLarsen,B - Westerinen,H 1-0, getting a

    big advantage with 12.Bxc6 bxc6 12.g4

    The very inventive Basman also played a nice game (Cebalo - Basman 0-1), though the opening moves are probably not

    to everyone's taste. 9..Bxc3+ 10.bxc3 Ngf6 11.Qc2 Qa5 is a well-known manouvre with the kingside pawns further back,

    but here it is even stronger because of the backward f2-pawn.

    Apart from Fischer's idea above in the match against Spassky, other players tried Bg7xc3 in slightly different

    Pirc-positions, e.g. Plachetka,J - Fries Nielsen,J 0-11980 where 18..Bxc3 19.bxc3 Nf6 gave black a very good postion.

    However, Black has to be careful in evaluating when this is good: Sznapik,A - Pein,M 1-01982.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    21/89

    In a somewhat difficult position, Black defended well inTimman,J - Larsen,B -1982 with 16..Bxc3 17.bxc3 Nf6.

    Interesting was Lukacs - Velez -1983, where 7..Bxc3+ 8.bxc3 Qa5 9.Qb3 Nb6 gave Black a reasonable game.

    In the same direction Blacks thoughts were going inKnaak,R - Zapata,A1984, Gonzalez,G - Alzate,D 0-11984 and

    Farago,I - Davies,N 1-01985.

    And finally - after all those years of trying different setups (earlier in this article I have mentioned

    Sakharov - Reshko Aron G 1-01966 (with colours reversed), Lukacs - Velez -1983 and others)

    in 1985 the idea was played for the first time in its accelerated form with 4..Bxc3+ 5.bxc3 f5:Ravikumar,V - Colias,B 1-0,

    Taylor,G - Ivanov,I 0-1Palmquist,W - Dzindzchashvili,R 0-1and Fink,S - Ivanov,I 0-1.

  • 7/25/2019 Curt Hansen - Inventors of Modern Chess - Part II

    22/89

    Another type of experiment was played by Black with 12..Bxc3 inHaik,A - Gheorghiu,F -1984, and he indeed

    managed to control White's bishops.

    Even the idea applied by Black in Berg,K - Westerinen,H 0-1and Schussler,H - Westerinen,H -seemed to be

    more or less playable.

    I think it will be fitting to let Bent Larsen have the last word. The Danish grandmaster showed a interesting idea in

    Van der Wiel,J - Larsen,B 0-11985, where he won a fine game after 9..Nxh5 10.Bxh5 Bxc3+! 11.bxc3 gxh5 12.Qxh5

    Qd7.

    I hope the readers will find food for thought in this article and maybe experiment themselves with the ideas discussed.
