10.g4!
A novelty, which stunned my opponent. At a training session for the Soviet team before the student world championship, I won a number of blitz games with this dashing attack, mainly against Vladimirov. (Kasparov)
10...Re8?! 11.0-0-0
The immediate 11.g5! was more accurate, but I sensed that after 10...Re8, all the same, the opponent would not play Be7 – and I was not mistaken! (Kasparov)
11...b5? 12.cxb5 cxb5 13.Bxb5+/-.

20...Rc8!
Exploiting the fact that the knight at c3 is undefended, Black intensifies the threat of ...b6-b5 or ...d6-d5.
21.Bg5 h6 22.Bc1 Red8!
Again eying the white queen from afar and, in anticipation of ...d6-d5, moving away from the X-ray of the white rooks on the e-file.

4th World Champion Alexander Alekhine is regarded as one of the strongest blindfold players ever. In July 1933, he played against 32 people blindfold simultaneously (a new #WorldRecord back then) in Chicago.
