Kibitzer's Corner
Dec-05-02  PVS: An interesting encounter.
Dec-05-02  ughaibu: Yes, very obscure manouvres going on by both players.
Feb-07-11  wordfunph: Bronstein, after choosing a difficult variation of the Alekhine Defence and losing to Geller practically without a struggle, tried to justify himself: "But what should I have played against him? After all, he knows everything."
