I believe the position above, Rxf7 was Karpov, 1981. I can't remember much more
than that. Tournament and player eludes me. The White Player was Kaparov and it
was close to 1981.

The other position I've encountered as well but don't know who was playing or
the year, it may have been Steintz as White in the 1880's or 90's?

Am I close? It would be nice to include the players and dates when you can.

Thanks,
 Terry
