πŸ“•10...Bxf3!
A clever decision. Black exchanges his light-squared bishop and then puts the own central pawns on the light squares. If white recaptures with the knight, 11...Qa5+ will come. 11.gxf3 dxc4! 12.Bxc4 d5=/+.

When V. Korchnoi defected in 1976, 31 USSR GMs signed a letter denouncing him. It included Tal, Petrosian, & Smyslov. It was not signed by Botvinnik, Karpov, or Spassky. Fischer sent a letter of congratulations to Korchnoi. The USSR stripped him of all his titles and honors.
