  Chessical: Botvinnik plays the Queen's Indian in the manner of his favourite Dutch with Qe8 to h5.

Makogonov plays rather passively before suddenly lashing out with a very weakening 23.g4?

Jul-19-05  EmperorAtahualpa: 25.Bh1 h2+ 26.Kg2 h3#
Aug-07-09  Knight13: 10. Ne1, trade off the bishops, then play f3 e4. What White did in the actualy game is just making a bunch of moves.
