🔸 Died 28 June 1992 Moscow, Russia (aged 55)

He also holds the records for both the first and second longest unbeaten streaks in competitive chess history.

Since black has sacrificed a pawn, he should have tried to complicate the game as much as possible. A better continuation was:

A)19.Bd4 Ne3 20.B×e3 f×e3 21.Q×e3 Bh3 -/+ With a powerful initiative for black.

Wesley So knows well that after 60.Rg6+ Kf7 61.R×a6 B×a6 62.K×f3 although White has “on paper” two extra pawns the ending is completely drawn.
