		I can't remember exactly which tournaments specifically, but Beliavsky (as you said a notorious uncompromising player) threw away a lot of tournaments with playing for a win in drawn positions in last rounds, this is one rare occasion where his tactic succeeded.

		Krishnan Sasikiran was his solid self and managed to draw comfortably against top seed Liviu Dieter Nisipeanu in a short game while Harikrishna exhibited good technique to eke out a draw against Emil Sutovsky in an opposite coloured bishop ending despite a pawn deficit.
		Beliavsky may have been a shade too aggressive as he indulged in a series of sacrifices right from the Opening stages of a Semi-Slav defence against Chanda.
		His patience paid off in mutual time pressure with Beliavsky allowing the knight to infiltrate his territory decisively to snare back the exchange.

		On the positive side, Yusupov has given some general considerations in regards to which lines are presently critical, which is very useful for players on both sides of the board.
		First of all, the cover is anything but pretty, but the fl and white design seems to have become the standard for chess books after the Chrysalis take-over of Batsford.
		This has appealed players like Shirov, Malaniuk, Beliavsky and others, but more recently even Karpov has taken up one of these lines (we saw him playing it in his 1998 match against Anand in Lucerne).
