 | | Garry Kasparov has often used the defence, including in his World Championship matches against Anatoly Karpov in 1986, 1987 and 1990. |
 | | In more recent years it has been regularly employed by Loek Van Wely, Peter Svidler and Luke McShane among others. |
 | | The opening relies on one of the main principles of the hypermodern school, which was coming to the fore in the 1920s - that a large pawn centre could be a liability rather than an asset. |
