In 1968 when the computer chip was just a gleam in a scientist's eye
Volosin and Tarasov played out this Russia. (Whte to play)
White played the clever 1. Be6.
Black cannot take the Bishop because one of the pawns will promote.
Black played 1...Bb7(??) 2.g4 and Black resigned.
35 years later and Fritz 8 scolded both players.
This wee gem plus others are from an excellent book I've picked up
which I'll be saying more about in the next blog.
