Hi Frank,

I believe that your selection should surely include

Mitrofanov's deflection
The famous engame from Ortueta-Sanz
Kholmov-Bronstein with the amazing Nc6

Maybe:
Ivanchuk-Shirov with 21.Qg7 in the Semi-Slav (Although I am not sure if this can
be used, maybe it is not the strongest move objectively).
A few combinations by Nezhmetdinov could also be used I believe.

Regards,

Geert
