  GrahamClayton: An interesting and hard-fought game.

Korchnoi rejects both 36...♗f8 & 36...♗h8, as after 37. hxg5 hxg5 38. ♕f5, the g5-pawn is lost, plus the f6 pawn blocks the bishop as well.

Apr-26-19  ColdSong: Indeed.One can wonder a long time who actually outplays the other.It's definitively Timman after all.
Apr-26-19  cunctatorg: It seems to me more like a Bogo-Indian than a Queen's Indian defense.
Apr-26-19  cunctatorg: Bogo-Indian or Queen's Indian, this game is above all another glorification of chess!!
