May-24-17  Llera: Today, 24th of May 2017, Alexy Yermolinsky writes an article on chessbase.com about the Pirc/Modern Defense. He comments a simultaneous game between Mikhail Tal and himself played in 1972, when he was fourteen years old, and that he draw. Then, he comments some games of Mikhail Botvinnik played with the Pirc/Modern Defense. One of those games was Unzicker vs Botvinnik, 1962 After seven moves, Yermolinsky's first commentary is: "The young Gata Kamsky played 7.0-0 in our secret training match played in (...) Leningrad back in 1986". Yermolinsky gives that game partially, until move 22. Here is that game (until move 22): Gata Kamsky-Alex Yermolinsky (Leningrad 1986):
(1)e4 d6 (2)d4 g6 (3)Nc3 Nf6 (4) Nf3 Bg7 (5) Be2 0-0 (6) Bf4 Nc6 (7) 0-0 Bg4 (8) d5 Nb8?!
