      @Keith Alfred Anthony Donovan I know but I thought it was like metaphorical? You metaphorically throw in the sense that you lose so bad that it's AS IF you literally threw? Or throwing can be used only literally?

    This endgame reminded me of the notorious 17th match game between Korchnoi and Karpov from 1978, where Korchnoi was a pawn up going into the endgame, but Karpov's knights plus Korchnoi's time trouble turned a winning endgame for Korchnoi to a checkmate for Karpov. In both this game and the Karpov game, black defended very strongly to turn the tables.

    8:46 26.Nd7 Rexd7 27.Bxd6 is a interference, far rarer than a Novotný interference. (Wow, a live Plachutta captured OTB in the wild!) A Plachutta requires two line-movers of the same type, and two sacs to lure + deflect one of them. Here, the two lines of defense are (1) Qd8 protects Bd6, and (2) Re7 protects Rc7, while also Rc7 is pinned to White's Rc8 threat. White surely calculated that 27..Rxc2 29.Rc8 pins his Q, but accepted this line as the least-costly solution: Q(+RB) for RN(+RB), almost equal and worth fighting out.
    26..Rcxd7 27.Bxd6 is worse, down at least an exchange whether the Rd7 moves or stays.
