Isnt it natural to test ones usual openings first and the DF reactions towards them? Therefore I dont see any contradiction to Uris statement - I am pretty sure that he did very well _know_ that DF will i.e. play this Bf8 move in the 2nd game. (BTW if you have F7 at home you can see that this one also wants to play Bf8 in the same position...) Once again, why should he have planned with unfamiliar openings when he had one full year time to test his usual ones for DF inferior answers? Regards, Günther
