That's why I'm interested to see how those masters worked through the positions. Sometimes a lack of knowledge is a good teacher.

Not 100 years ago, but: Look at Tals games against the scilian. Many opponents don't knew what they are doing and Tal made them pay dearly.

But if he sees Tal's games he will never dare to play the Sicilian again ;)
