Hey Garry. I have a question if you don't mind

In your 1982 book on the Scheveningen Sicilian, you suggested that a certain move for Black was not that good, then you played that very move in your first game of the first match against Karpov in 1984. What are your thoughts about that? I'm sure you recall the move.
Yes, no problem. I am actually the worlds foremost expert on the Scheveningen Sicilian. I like to use it against players like Karpov as it is a very aggressive opening and it allows him less time to develop his pieces.

Karpov always likes to defend from a solid and dymmetrical base, and he then attacks up the flanks. This opening makes it harder for him to do that initial organisation. It's a bit like countering Jeff Lacy before he can get his feet set properly. The book was a double bluff, just like my good friend Muhammad Ali's claim that he would dance for 15 rounds against George Foreman.

Will you vote for me as President of Armenia incidentally??
