London, 1982

A rare slip by Anatoly Karpov in the opening, allows Yasser Seirawan to win a piece, and he exploits his advantage precisely and energetically.  This was the first tournament victory by a Syrian-American over a reigning world champion since Dake defeated Alexander Alekhine at Pasadena in 1932.
