I was studying this game because I've decided to model my play (somewhat) after Shirov as studying a chess hero is usually a good idea.
Edit: Added some variations from my notes I forgot in the 14.Bxc4 lines.
Early Shirov Game (Dragon)
Sort:
Interesting game. I have to ask a "newb" question though. Is there really a refutation of the dragon? I attempt to play the dragon, and if it's refuted, I should probably stop. Not because it's costing me games, I blunder, therefor I lose. Just because it wouldn't be the right thing to do. Any further info? Thanks.
