  tamar: 23...Nd7! begins an odyssey where this piece walks through White's position taking pieces: 25...Nxc5 the knight captures a pawn, 28...Nxb3 a queen, 29...Nxd2 a rook, and 30...the other rook!

  tamar: <At the end of 2003, as an 18-year-old, I was playing my first Prague match. My opponent was the famous Viktor Lvovich Korchnoi. We played only two games. In the first I escaped with difficulty as White, while in the second I sacrificed a pawn to get a winning attack. After the game my opponent was a little upset and left the hall. When I started to show variations to the fans, however, Viktor Lvovich returned and suggested an improvement, which I refuted, noting that the position was unclear. In response the famous grandmaster replied: “Only for you!”>
