Jun-08-06  borisbadenoff: Hmm 12. .. c5 seems dubious to me. Any ideas for improvements? Maybe a5?
Jun-08-06  borisbadenoff: Here 11. .. Rfc8 seems to be the improvement to this (I think earlier in the same year played) game Timman vs Korchnoi, 1982 where 11. .. Rfe8 was played by Korchnoi. Is the other one a game from the dutch championship?

But otherwise believe it or not. The game is entirely the same. Move for move???

Jun-08-06  borisbadenoff: Ant those two are the only two occasions they played the english against each other with timman white.

And both times Korchnoi enters the bad A17 variation for black and then those identical moves? There are no improvments at all. This must be somehow "arranged" or something in that direction
