15...Rxc2+ was NEVER played. Possibly 15...Qa3 there. |

| Plaskett: Miles, who was also playing in the tournament, played... Qh5 against me at Kettering in the same set-uo from anoter 3 Bb5+ Sicilian in 1980. He won the ending and said that he cribbed the ... Qh5 idea from his game as black with Bellin at the 1979 British Championships " ... ... |

| |
| Plaskett: I also noted another quirky Unguarded Guard in the far from forced line of 17...Bg5 18 f4 Bf6 19 Rhe1+ Kf8 20 Nxf6 gxf6 21 Bxc6 bxc6 22 Rd8+ Kg7 23 Rg1+ ...when black´s only, but more than satisfactory, defence would be 23 ...Rg5! |

| Plaskett: I´d have tried 31 Ra7 Ra5 32 Nb5!? when either the rook ending following 32...Nxb5 33 axb5 Rxb5 34 Rxa6 or the knight ending following 34... Nxa4 35 Rxa6 must leave winning chances. |

Nov-17-21 Kasparov vs Short, 1993
| |
| Plaskett: No way would you see me play Nb3.
