A nice example would be his game against Short in Sarajevo? where he had a lost position if Short just had played Rd8 instead of Rc8 ( I think this was at move 32, if anyone is interested I can check it out at home! ) ..anyway Is not ELO supposed to be a system with no inflation, so if one person or program started to win a lot the others would fall in rating and making it harder and harder to earn ELO points?
