What timing! I just studied this game in the Soviet Chess Primer, the Middlegame Chapter, about page 323, this morning! Thank you!

I've probably heard you reference this specific game many times. It sounds familiar.

I knew it was coming and it still cracks me up :)

There are worse things than getting up and leaving the tournament: getting up and leaving town, for sure.

Oh yeah the immortal rook.
