Moscow, 23rd October 1973. The 15th round of the 41st USSR Championship - one of the strongest events of them all. Korchnoi faces Spassky (the eventual winner of the tournament), while Karpov looks on. On the adjacent board, Taimanov faces Geller.

THE BEST EXPLANATION OF AlEKHINES STYLE.
Bobby Fischer said:''If you look at
Alekhines games you can see that in every game he always tried to keep central control and with slow manouvering approached opponents kings and already about on move 25. played for mate.''
