  GM Andersson  2640 - GM Larsen  2500, Argentine 2001


  The above position is from round 8 in the present tournament in Argentine,
  1 Magistral Internacional de Ajedrez de Pinamar.

  After some fine manoeuvres and superb positional play, Andersson has
  reached a won position in this classic encounter. The players have
  queen, bishop and 5 pawns each. But the white pawn on c5 utterly cramps
  black's position. White also has a dangerous passer, all his pawns are
  placed on the right square color and he's ready to enter black's position.


  Test: This position might prove interesting for programs to play out.
        White should win it.

  The game Andersson-Larsen went:




Andersson - Larsen
Argentine, 2001

By superb positional play white has reached a won position. He has a passer, a
cramping pawn on c5 and the rest of the pawns placed on the right square color.
Andersson finishes this swiftly. 1.Qd4 Qc7 2.Qb4 e5 3.Qb6 exf4+ 4.gxf4 Qxb6
5.cxb6 Kd6 6.Kd4 Bf1 7.a5 Ba6 8.Bc2 c5+ 9.Kc3 Kd5 10.Ba4 1-0
