The one where he "dared me" to play the Double Muzio against him? He was taunting me on the ChessTalk forum, and it spilled over to here. I should have just ignored his challenge, but it is not like me to back down from a fight.
I did not know he had the Chessbase CD with a refutation of the line he asked me to play. I gave up a Bishop and a Knight for just 2 pawns, very early in that game, and it is still going on.
To prove to him that I could really sacrifice a Knight and Bishop against him, I took him out of published play in our next game and I won that in 26 moves. And his rating was 2700 at the time, before the celing was removed. Since that time, he was rated 2706, and I won a second game against him in our "3 wins" match.
You should comment on this game, since it shows what a player can do "without help" against the sum of all of the accumulated chess knowledge in the world.
