Phony Benoni: Many thanks to <The Bish> (especially for showing how to make those links), but his leads to the wrong issue. The game is actually on p. 9 of the May issue:http://uscf1-nyc1.aodhosting.com/CL...
Here are a few more details, and a marvelous irony.
The notes to the game were by Horowitz. An introduction to the game states:
<"The following game should have ended in a draw. At his 40th move, Horowitz had about one minute left on his clock, but made an impulsive capture which lost the game. As he made the capture he 'knew' that he shouldn't --- but some irresistible impulse caused him to take the piece. As he did so, he shoo his head, as if wondering why. It was a costly half-point -- and a break for Denker. But such are the fortunes of chess.">
After 40.a4, Horowitz comments:
<"...After the exchange the ending is is hopelessly lost, and the technique of winning is described in the January CHESS REVIEW under Graphic Endings, by no less an authority than the annotator .">
Finally, 41.a4 was the sealed move, but White resigned without resumption as Black reaches the winning ending with 40...bxa3.
The article referred to by Horowitz can be found here, p. 12-13.
