How I beat the
Sensational Winner of the
2003 Dortmund Tournament
by IM Igor Khmelnitsky

Back in 1989 I was playing in my first ever International chess tournament.  In Round 4 I was facing one of the favorites - Viorel Bologan.  See what happened in that game below.  Sometimes in the mid 90s, Viorel played in World Open in Philadelphia, and I chatted with him a little.  He was determined to break into the World elite, and now he has.  Congratulations to him.  As for myself, I am pleased to look at this "nothing held back" game when we were both young and restless.
