How different the chess world would have been if Gurevich had won the following game. Short's win guaranteed him a place in the subsequent Candidates matches, from which he emerged as the challenger to World Champion Kasparov, from which the PCA arose. And if this game had been drawn?

Round 13 : M.Gurevich - Short
Position
after 32...b5-b4
