Crush by Petrosian

Earlier today I saw my friend Elshan ask on Facebook for games with Tigran Petrosian on the White side of the King’s Indian. GM Jacob Aagaard just posted “Qh8+” as a response.

That sent me on a mission, and this is where I wound up…the final position from Petrosian – Spassky in Game 10 of the 1966 World Championship.

Here is the entire game. Thank you Elshan and Jacob for getting me to look for this!

Til Next Time,
