Aug-08-07 | | geigermuller: <aerohacedor: Had Ivanchuck played 14. Ne7 instead of b4, it would have been an easy mate.> b4 is best to shelter the white king, attack the Q and make Ne7 possible |
|
Jan-03-08 | | Billy Vaughan: <whiteshark>LOL, I bet Kaspy just didn't want the ignominy of losing in, like, 13 moves. Amazing game! |
|
Feb-05-08 | | hedgeh0g: It's very rare to see a GM lose his queen within 15 moves and Kasparov no less! Something only Ivanchuk could pull off. |
|
Mar-23-08 | | Paraconti: Why not 11...0-0? |
|
Mar-23-08 | | eyalbd: "You insulted me in the opening therefore I will insult you back by playing till the mate" I am sure that was in Kasparov's mind during the game. |
|
Mar-23-08 | | thegreatzidane: 11 ...0-0 12. Bxg7 Kxg7 13. Qxf6+ Kxf6 14. Nd5+ and loses the queen. |
|
Apr-16-08 | | The Rocket: was this classical chess?, from what I know ivanchuk beat kasparov 4 times in classical chess, is that correct?. |
|
Jun-22-08 | | sallom89: Amazing play by Ivanchuk. |

 | | sleepyirv: <eyalbd> It isn't insulting if White was right to play it. |
|
Jan-26-09 | | Stuckman: It's pretty obvious Kasparov accidentally ate a brownie from a local bakery before the game, forgetting that he was in Amsterdam. Ha ha, okay, bad joke. |
|
Jan-04-10 | | eyalbd: 14...♕d8? was a mistake since black can save the game by 14...♗g7! 15.bxa5 ♗xf6 16.♘xf6+ ♔g7 and thanks to the threat on both Knights black regains his lost piece. |

 | | maxi: Kasparov only made one mistake, 9...e5??, which opens lines for an attack on the weak square f6 and leaves a nice hole in d5. You just cannot do that against Ivanchuk. |
|
Aug-24-10 | | licuan: what a skilled matador CHUCKY was! |
|

 | | HeMateMe: Had to replay it, when I saw the Queen was gone. Thought it was a hallucination or bad score sheet. |
|
Dec-26-10 | | Blunderdome: Yeah, I think 14...Bg7 would be OK for black. 14...Bg7 15. bxa5 Bxf6 16. Nxf6+ Kg7 17. Nxh7 Kxh7 18. Nb3 or 15. Qxg7 Kxg7 16. bxa5 exd4 |
|
Jan-29-11 | | TheOutsider: Played out terribly by Ivanchuk. I've always found it strange how these players find the will to play on after losing their queen in the opening/earmy middlegame. e5 was the first mistake. |
|
Dec-26-11 | | pablo333: 9... e5 was black's losing move: I'm surprised at Garry Kasparov (of ALL people) making such an error. |
|
Dec-26-11 | | Isolani: Hmm, so I guess 6. f4 is called the Amsterdam variation of the Najdorf. I must admit I did not know that 6. f4 even had a name prior to looking over this game tonight. |
|
May-13-12 | | rilkefan: Per stockfish, 14...Bg7 was 0.5 (depth of 30, 1.5 Gnodes). It prefers simply Nb3 to Bh6, assessing it as 0.7, with main line 11...O-O 12.O-O-O Be6 13.g4 Nbd7 14.Rh2 h6 15.Kb1 b5 16.Rhd2 (depth 28, 1 Gnode). Certainly Bh6 has the advantage of requiring black to defend accurately in an entirely unexpected position. |

Apr-29-14 | | sicilianhugefun: The Ukrainian makes it look so easy to defeat the beast from Azerbaijan... |

 | | perfidious: <sicilianhugefun: The Ukrainian makes it look so easy to defeat the beast from Azerbaijan...> Lest those who would sing hosannas for Ivanchuk's play get carried away, this is one of precisely four wins in thirty-seven classical games for Ivanchuk vs Kasparov. |
|
Apr-29-14
 | | plang: Ivanchuk is one of a small group who won as many as 4 classical games against Kasparov. I see that as a positive not a negative. Anand has 3, Topalov 2, Shirov 0, Gelfand 0 etc. |
|
Jun-09-18 | | Toribio3: Kasparov is smart. Ivanchuk is smarter! |
|

 | | ChessHigherCat: <Toribio3: Kasparov is smart. Ivanchuk is smarter!> Much nicer than "Kasparov is smart, Ivanchuk is schmatta!"
http://www.yiddishslangdictionary.c... Ivanchuk and Kasparov were (still are?) both raving geniuses, but K. could deliver more consistently |
