Sorry for the delay in posts - I was away on holiday's for two weeks and the Irish Chess Journal was my priority before that.
Came across the above position recently: White to play and win with a beautiful combination.
Solution to last position:
Karpov - Taimanov
Leningrad, 1977
1...Ng3+!! 2.hxg3 Ra8! 0-1
This game is justly famous for its brilliant Knight sacrifice, sometimes referred to as the "Taimanov" sacrifice, and the planned follow-up with the Rook. The final combination is indeed beautiful however, Karpov had blundered to reach the position.
