Another Tal-Petrosian Game for Analysis
http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1185440953.shtml


   A little less than two weeks ago, [1]I offered a drawn game between
   the great world champions Mikhail Tal and Tigran Petrosian as an
   analysis exercise (my subsequent analysis can be found in [2]this
   post). Now it's time for another Tal-Petrosian draw for the intrepid
   among you to work out for yourselves:
   Tal,Mihail - Petrosian,Tigran V [C16]
   USSR Championship Leningrad 1977.28.11
   1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.e5 b6 5.Qg4 Bf8 6.Nf3 Qd7 7.a4 Nc6 8.Bd2
   Nge7 9.Be2 Nf5 10.O-O h5 11.Qf4 g6 12.Bb5 Bh6 13.Ng5 Nfxd4 14.Rad1 Kf8

   33.Qf6+ Kg8 34.Qg5+ Kh7 35.Qxh5+ Kg8 36.Qg5+ Kh7 37.Qh5+ Kg8 38.Qg4+
   Kh7 39.Qe4+ Kg7 40.Qg4+ Kh7 41.Qe4+ 1/2-1/2
   My analysis will probably show up some time this weekend.
