Vishy Anand Loses In 6 Moves!

This is an unbelievable game played in 1988, by Vishy Anand and Zapata Alonso. At the time, Vishy was rated 2555, and his opponent was just under 2480. It was crazy how quickly this game was lost! I know that many beginners blunder in the Russian Defense, but not great chess players like Anand. This is a simple trap I like to do on beginners that play that Russian Defense. 

That will work on almost any player rated below 800. It's really fun to play also. However, Vishy Anand is not 800, so how did this happen? That's the same thing I'm wondering. Here's the game.

It's hard to believe that after 6 moves, a GM is down 3 points. This is one of the most interesting yet terrible chess games ever. I've made articles about Magnus Carlsen and Bobby Fischer losing quickly, but not this quickly. I mean, 6 moves! That is so incredibly quick! I've had another idea lately.
