1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 e6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 a6 5. Nc3 b5 6. Bd3 Bb7 7. O-O Nc6 8. Nxc6 dxc6 More usual is 8... Bxc6 which was once played by team member Ljubojevic against Tal: 9. Qe2 Nf6?! 10. e5 Nd5 (10... b4!?) 11. Nxd5 Bxd5 12. a4 Qa5 13. Rd1 b4 14. Bf4 Qb6 15. Be4 Bxe4 16. Qxe4 with a big advantage for White (Tal-Ljubojevic, Montreal 1979). 9. e5 Qc7 10. f4 Rd8 11. f5! Of course. 11... exf5 12. Rxf5 c5 13. Qf1 c4 14. Be4 Bc8 15. Rf3 Be6 Black somehow managed to keep things together but now comes the second attacking wave. 16. Bf5! Exchange of the strongly defending bishop on e6. 16... Ne7 17. Bxe6 fxe6 18. Bg5 h6 Grabbing the pawn cannot be recommended: 18... Qxe5 19. Bh4 followed by Re1 with an enormous initiative. 19. Bh4 Rd4 20. Bf2 Rd7 21. a4! Opening a second front. 21... b4 22. Ne2 Qc6 The alternative is 22... Nc6 but after 23. Nf4 Nxe5 24. Re3 Ng4 25. Rxe6+ Kf7 26. Re4 Nxf2 27. Rxc4 Qa7 28. Nd3! there's no hope left for Black. 23. Nd4 Qd5 24. b3! cxb3 25. cxb3 Ng6 26. Qxa6 Nxe5 27. Re3 Bc5 28. Rxe5! Finishing with a petite combinaison. 28... Qxe5 29. Qc8+ Ke7 30. Nc6+ Kf6 31.
