Featured is a sharp chess game between Anatoly Karpov and Viktor Korchnoi from Game 8 of their 1978 World Championship Match. Out of an Open Ruy Lopez, Korchnoi’s 10th move proves to be a serious inaccuracy. Karpov responds energetically, launching a powerful kingside attack that leaves the black king permanently exposed. This encounter marked the first decisive game of the match, lasting only 28 moves.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
