Bd3 $5 {N "I remember this tournament very well, because it was my best achievement at Soviet championships. Overall it was my second participation. I played for the first time 1974. In this position previously 5.g3 or 5.Qe2 and g3 was played. There is a nice story of this novelty. In march the same year I played a tournament in spain. I was International Master and played for a Grandmaster norm. Before the last round I was shared first with Csom and Miroslav Filip. You remember - he participated in the candidates tournament Curacao 1962. We had 7.5 points and the norm was something like 8.03. But I did not think only about the norm. I was young and optimistic - always wanted to win. I was playing White against Csom and was very optimistic. I have to play, I have to win. And then I win the tournament and of course Grandmaster norm as well. Filip told me after the game: 'If you would ask me what to do I would recommend you to make a draw. But I could not tell you, because I have also the same score.' He made a quick draw. I prepared for Csom and he always played with White and especially Black this funny looking system with hedgehog pawns on a6 and b6. He used to play this Ra7, Qa8, Bc6, Rc7 sequence. I didn't know what to play and a few hours before the game I've found this Bd3 idea. Which was a completely new setup at the time: Bc2, b3, Bb2 and attack on the kingside with both bishops. But I was young and did not trust myself here. I thought, 'Oh, no - it's not possible. I cannot play such an idea - maybe stupid idea (because it seemed stupid at first). And without long analysis/preparation - the last round, it's very important.' And so on. I did not play it. I played the normal way and lost very quickly in 25 moves or so with White. After that I was so upset - it was my first tournament with Grandmaster norm possible - that I analysid the Bd3 idea the whole night when I came to my hotel room. And then 9 months later I played it against Petrosian and I crushed him with the Nd5 sacrifice. 20 years later in 1996 I played olympiad in Yerevan. I got a cold and went to pharmacy. The pharmacist told me: 'I remember you - 20 years ago you crushed our Petrosian here.' I had only once in my life the chance to play Bd3 - against Petrosian. Later many people, like i e Korchnoi, adapted it. ... Petrosian afterwards told me: You surprised us twice in this tournament with such good novelties. But remember, you also have to play the other 13 games." Tatsächlich wird der Zug auch heute noch gespielt und zählt zu den typischen weißen Ideen, die im weißen Springeropfer auf d5 gipfelt. Damit bringt Romanishin den Verteidigungskünstler Petrosian in große Bedrängnis, der die erste Angriffswelle jedoch mit seinem Markenzeichen - einem Qualitätsopfer - abwehren kann.} d6 (5... c5 $142 6.
