Hmmm....al elf ronden gespeeld en dit onderwerp bestond nog niet
Over mijn eigen spel hoef ik het niet te hebben, maar mijn oog viel afgelopen maandag op de partij Cock-Sake. Dat kwam me bekend voor. Sake speelde als de wereldkampioen, maar Cock had al snel het punt binnen Het verhaal achter deze variant is ook erg grappig.
Zapata (2480) - Anand (2555), Biel-B 1988
1.e4,e5 2.Nf3,Nf6 3.Nxe5,d6 4.Nf3,Nxe4 5.Nc3,Bf5?? 6.Qe2, Anand resigns (Sake speelde nog even door na 6..De7 7.Pd5 met stukwinst)
The story goes: reaching the position after white's 5th move,Anand recalled the publication of the game Miles-Christiansen,in the Informator(a highly respectable chess journal),which went 6.Nxe4,Bxe4 etc....Impressed with the ease with which black had drawn in that game,Vishy decided to try it himself.But,after 6.Qe2,black just loses a piece.
Now,how could both Miles and Christiansen have missed such an obvious move????
The answer is........they didn't!!That game had been agreed drawn in advance.Something the Informator had not revealed.At the board,Miles did see that Qe2 was winning,but remained the gentleman,and avoided playing it.It is said,that he did spend some seconds polishing the e2 square with his finger,untill Christiansen's face had the appropriate shade of red,whereupon Miles took on e4.
