Hello all, Yesterday I was in a local library, and read in Viktor Vasiliev's 1974 book: "Tigran Petrosian: His Life and Games" about the game in the subject heading's having made a significant impression upon the young Tigran Vartanovich who, at the time, was an ardent adherent and advocate of the principles of Nimzowitsch. Evidently, it was because of this that David Ionovich's plan of an early rook's-pawn thrust (it was a Caro-Kann of some description) caused the future world champion to be taken aback. I've looked everywhere for the game: Pitt, ChessLab, ChessBase, Neven's Research database, etc. and have found nothing. Does anybody know anything about Shamkovich-Bronstein? Even the opening fragment may prove useful (I play the Caro) but the entire text of the game would be even better. Any analysis would be terrific. TIA k

Russian edition (1973) of Vasiliev's book, named "The Second 'Me' of Petrosian" ;-) May be mistake was made during transalation, but may be the mistake was in Russian edition, and was fixed in the English edition, who knows... Regards, Vlad P.S. Unfortunately, there is a big chance the game protocols are lost. 1942 was very tought year in Tbilisi, and this was not a championship :-( k Houlsby wrote: > Many thanks for your replies. > > May I ask please: What is the source for your assertion that the date > was 1942? > > I may indeed contact GM Shamkovich directly :-) > > Thanks again > k >

By the way, the game was played in 1942, not 1941.
