Hi all:
Karpov is visiting my country -Chile- and as a part of the things he will do
here, tomorrow saturday he will play a simul against 8 boards; 4 of them played
by gifted children and the other 4 played by "personalities" of the country that
at the same time are supposed to have some relation with chess. Well, I fall in
the last category and so I was invited to be part of the carneage and I will
play the monster, or better said, I will be toyed by him.  Of Course I do not
expect nothing but to give the toughest fight possible and even, if Gods smile
to me, get a draw if I play enough long to get Anatole into deep boredom or
getting hungry and wanting to got to lunch, as much this thing happens at 12:30
PM. So what I need now is some advice from those that knows well how this
monster play simuls. What do you think is the line- for blacks- that ensures the
most chances to delay the bitter end againts e4 or d4?
Truly yours, Fernando, the next little biscuit for Karpov.
