"Learn from grandmasters, Ed.Raymond Keene"

<Victory in the ending>

<Leading chess players, in the course of their 'work', often have to answer questions from journalists. Naturally enough, these questions vay a great deal. Much depends on the interviewer and on his experience, knowledge, chess ability and finally on the theme chosen for the discussion. Hence, along with professional questions such as 'How do you regard 11...fc8 in the Dragon instead of 11...ac8?' one sometimes finds that one's questioner is intrested in gastronomic, cultural, or even sexual questions ('Do you prefer blondes or brunettes?') as seen from the grandmaster's point of view). One could even draw up a list of the most frequently asked questions. It is simple enough to answer some of them, but one's reactions to others are not very enthusiastic, while others, yet again, cause one to take offence. A frequently occuring question is: which game is your most intresting one?>

<Strange as it may seem, it is not easy to answer this. There are games which leave a trace in the memory because of their competitive significance, such as the 1st games of my two matches with Botvinnik; the first of which brought me the title of World Champion, and the second of ex-World Champion. There are games in which the competitive side clearly overshadows the creative - the best example I can think of is the 10th game of my match with Larsen in 1965.>

Yes, this is the game that Tal fans always show the idiots who say that Tal could not play the endgame.
