Radjabov vs Adams, FIDE World Championship, Tripoli 2004
The semifinal game in this championship began as a familiar Catalan, the open
variation with 5...a6 and 6...Nc6. But then Adams uncorked two moves that have
never been played in tournaments before: 9...Nb6 and 10...Na5. Radjabov was soon
in trouble. Adams hung on to his extra pawn and Radjabov could not seem to find
the compensation that White usually has in the Catalan.
