Another of my favourites games !

Here is another of my favourite games, this time time by the ultra cautious Tigran Petrosian - World Champion in the 1960's and a pretty much misunderstood player.
Here he conjures up a mate from nothing dragging the King out into the open by a Queen sacrifice and cutting off the monarchs retreat to safety - forcing resignation from a world class player.
