In the same year (1998) that he started<br />

World Championship XVI, Horst Rittner<br />

completed the following game against<br />

the reigning world champion. This supports<br />

his claim that he is still strong<br />

enough to play on the German team in<br />

an olympiad final.<br />

It’s astonishing that the double World<br />

Champion proceeds so cautiously. Black<br />

has more problems after 13 ¦e1 0–0 14<br />

In the event of 14 a4, to prevent the<br />

...b5 advance, there follows 14...e5! 15<br />

¤e2 (15 ¤f5? e4) 15...¥d7 16 ¤g3 ¦ae8!<br />

and Black stands well.<br />

14...b5!<br />

This is not my discovery, but is known<br />

for a long time. Now 15 £xa8 doesn’t<br />

work because of 15...¥b7 16 £xf8+ ¥xf8<br />

17 ¥d3 e5!–+; and 15 ¥d3 ¥b7 16 £d1<br />

(16 £e2 e5!–+) 16...¦ad8 is somewhat<br />

favourable to Black.<br />

15 ¥xb5<br />

Õim’s ¥ sacrifice is not new and was<br />

perhaps planned at move 13. He obtains<br />

a pawn-roller on the queenside.<br />

In the game L.Vajda-M.Galyas, Budapest<br />

Better 21 c4 as now the black £<br />

immediately creates threats.<br />

Õim surely has not played this move<br />

gladly. The white pawn structure is now<br />
