Related to this lesson, I can think of a couple of salient points related to my own chess. I recognize how simplistic my play is; meaning, how rarely I essay moves and plans that give the opponent more than one choice, asin this example, where Black has five potential defenses. The other issue is the need to remember objectivity in the calculation process. The opponent’s candidate moves are as important as mine, and expecting cooperation from him/her is silly. Very nice lesson!
Yes, this move has been played on a number of occasions! One of them was IGM Hans Ree – IGM Jeroen Piket 2001.
Piket was already much stronger by that time than Ree, but everyone was surprised that he allowed the position and was a little bit “gigglish” about it.
Good anecdote!. Yes I have read on ocassion Kramnik giving advice to “know the classics”. He mentioned that he did not not all the rationalle behind it but that it was definitively important. I guess this is a good example!.
Hi Waldemar: Lesson 8 was full of good information. I very much liked the breakdown
of the position and the subsequence candidate
moves. I did see some but not all. A good learning experience.

Hi Pablo,

Ree knew his classics and won that game!
