But Benjamin also puts his oar in! After this desperado, the win is almost within his grasp.

27...Bd7

The last attempt to create confusion. No solace is offered by 27...bxc4 28.Bxg7 Ng6 (28...Kxg7 29.Bxc8) 29.Re1 Ra8

30.Be5 and White remains two pawns up.

28.Qd3

Benjamin has had enough of all the brilliancies... You would expect a new desperado here with 28.Qxc8, which also wins – even after 28...Qxd4 29.Rxd7 Qxf4+ 30.Rd2, and White remains a rook up.

28...Qg6 29.Qxg6+ hxg6 30.Bxd7 Rd8

The pinning move 30...Rc7 is met with a counter-pin: 31.Re8 Rxd7 32.Bc5.

31.Re8!

And again, the same motif emerges. Wouter resigned. After 31...Rxd7, White wins a piece with 32.Bc5. What a grandiose game by Benjamin, and how tragic it was for Wouter that, at one of the most important moments in his chess career, he should fall victim to such brilliant play by an inspired opponent!

The following position occurred in a blitz game in a chess café in Amsterdam. The white player became known for the fact that as a ‘simple IM’ he inflicted the only loss on the then World Champion Garry Kasparov in a top-level blitz tournament in Wijk aan Zee. Bosboom was allowed to play there as a substitute because Alexey Shirov had withdrawn due to a toothache. Bosboom had been regarded as the best Dutch blitz player for years, and thanks to his reputation he got the invitation.

Bosboom’s play also distinguishes itself by the alternative paths he tends to follow in the opening. For example, he has a predilection for trying to confuse the opponent with a quick g2-g4.

Bosboom combines an excellent strategic understanding with great tactical abilities.
