Aug-06-03 | | PinkPanther: I don't understand this game, why on the scorecard is it recorded as 75.. Qg7+ instead of 75..Qg7#, and why did Anand let Kamsky "checkmate" him? |
|
Aug-06-03 | | hickchess99: word on the street is that anand participated in this game and a burger eating contest at the same time. he lost both. just goes to show you shouldn't attempt to scarf 20 cheeseburgers in a hour with extra mustard and expect to win a chess game at the same time. |

Aug-06-03 | | Larsker: <just goes to show you shouldn't attempt to scarf 20 cheeseburgers in a hour with extra mustard and expect to win a chess game at the same time.> Also goes to show that Anand can't be an orthodox Hindu. (In India oxen are holy animals) |

Aug-06-03 | | PVS: <word on the street is that anand participated in this game and a burger eating contest at the same time.> In a Candidates' Match! |
|
Mar-15-04 | | Whitehat1963: Is the scoresheet correct? Did Anand really let it go that long? |
|
Mar-15-04 | | ajit: <Larsker> <Anand can't be an orthodox Hindu> What a nonsensical comment!!? Where is it written that he was having beef burgers. And get your facts straight...Cows are holy animals for Hindus not oxen! |
|
Mar-15-04 | | Phoenix: mmmm, cheeseburgers. |
|
Mar-15-04 | | Reisswolf: <ajit>, In America, burgers are, by definition, "beef burgers." There's no such thing as a "chicken burger" or a vegetable burger." They are called "chicken sandwich" and "vegetable patty sandwich" respectively. |
|
Mar-15-04 | | ajit: <Reisswolf> Granted...what u say is the American way of burgers but cheeseburgers are 'cheese' burgers. And I bet Anand wudn't eat a beef burger. |
|
Mar-15-04 | | Reisswolf: Cheese burgers are burgers, i.e. beef burgers, with cheese. You have the option of getting cheese slices with your burgers, or leaving them out. Grilled cheese burgers are probably the most common type of sandwiches sold in the United States. If you were to order a "cheese burger" here, rest assured that it will contain a nice, big beef patty. |

Mar-15-04 | | TrueFiendish: What a fascinating debate about the fine cuisine on offer in the good old US of A. I can't understand why obesity statistics there are so high! |
|
Mar-16-04 | | weepingwarrior: I love to study Anand's games, and I have learned alot from them. Right from the opening, Kamsky out plays Anand, and Anand should have resigned on move 53. |
|
Feb-20-05 | | aw1988: What is this page for? Studying Anand-Kamsky or becoming a master chef? :/ |
|
Dec-22-05 | | BobbyBishop: ll bet this game is what gave Anand the idea to use this opening against GK in their match a year later. He probably thought how bad could it be if even I lost to it! Seeing ..1 d5 probably sent Kaspy's eyebrows arching in a big way. Kasparov vs Anand, 1995 |

Apr-17-07 | | madlydeeply: yes, I yam a Kamsky fan. |
|
Apr-04-08 | | nathanschulz: Is 33. Kd2? the turning point? |
|
Apr-04-08 | | mistreaver: <Is 33. Kd2? the turning point?>
I don't think so i think black already had the better ending due to white's passive DSB and white's doubled pawns |
|
May-30-08 | | ezmerin: I believe 36. Rb6 is the turning point. Removing White rook from open g-file enables immediate 36...g5! and, by threatening White Bishop, Black wins f-pawn. |
|
May-30-08 | | nathanschulz: if 36. Rg1, for example, then still 36...g5, and White cannot take the pawn without losing his bishop, I think it's all pretty forced after 33. Kd2? |
|
May-31-08 | | ezmerin: Well, natanschulz, looks like you're right. 33. Kd2? is a blunder. So, anyone has improvement on mind? Maybe 33. Rd1? or 33. Kd1? |
|
Oct-01-08 | | vonKrolock: <34.♗e8+> leads to a practically lost position after the sequence till <36...g5>; an interesting alternative was the exchange sac - the immediate 34.♖xg6 ♔xg6 35.fxe5 etc, or in the form of 34.fxe5 f4 35.♖xg6 etc |
|
Oct-01-08 | | Ladolcevita: from the appearance of the game,i think we can say Kamsky gets a huge invisible potential advantage by skillfully shaping its pawn chains at bothsides.
Look at anand's queen side,the bottom pawn is a dangerous weakness;while at his kingside,pawns are too few,but anand didnt set a maneuverable defendence to prevent Kamsky's pawn waterfall.
Probably anand wants to controll the open files first,but his pieces blocked each other,and the pace is gradually left behind by his opponent,thus breaking down finally. |
|
Feb-21-09 | | swarmoflocusts: Why in the world did Anand play this out? Quite honestly, I could win the position after 53...Bg3 with ten seconds on my clock playing against a perfect computer easily. (With black, obviously.) |
|
Apr-16-09 | | madmilz123: he played it cause of the cheeseburgers |
