 | | jaime gallegos: Great game! see D Ledger vs R Willmoth, 2002 to watch the similarities ... |
|
Mar-13-05 | | GMAstle: To me, it seems kinda odd the Kas. would play e3 on move 15 rather then take the pawn with the fork. Does anyone have any thoughts. |
|
Mar-13-05 | | coffee monster: <GMAstle> If you mean 15.Bxd5+?? then black plays 15...Qxd5 and white is losing having sacrificed a bishop for a pawn with no compensation. |

Jun-28-09 | | Knight13: 39...Qd6 is a better fight. But Black is lost anyway. |
|
Dec-06-09 | | Hesam7: <<42. Qxc7+> click for larger viewThis provoked a storm of applause in the auditorium: it was a unique occurrence in matches for the world championship (and also a rarity in grandmaster play) for a sealed move to be made openly.> |

 | | HeMateMe: Great game. Interesting how, even at the highest level, the basic pin motif decides the game. |
|
Mar-14-10 | | Everett: If I'm not mistaken, black plays the early 4..Ne4 to avoid the pressure he was feeling from 4..0-0 5.Bg5, a Kasparov special. This game is actually very important in sporting terms, as Kasparov went up 2 games with only 4 to go, a near-insurmountable lead at the top levels. |
|
Dec-27-10 | | knights: knight13 i agree. he should have taken the d pawn with the queen, not the rook, then he would have been at least TIED to white (pawnwise) this is the turning point of the gamr |
|
Jan-22-12 | | King.Arthur.Brazil: At 29.e4! Black is paralized!The Na5 has nolife! Maybe: fxe4 (ep) 30.fxe3 Nc4... Anyway: white has Rf1, e4, Nxc4 which give him verygood play. |

This provoked a storm of applause in the auditorium: it was a unique occurrence in matches for the world championship (and also a rarity in grandmaster play) for a sealed move to be made openly.<Hesam7>,
One spectator was ejected from the auditorium after yelling out "Resign!" to Karpov. |
|
Jun-29-16 | | RookFile: I don't like the whole defense. It's basically ends up being a Dutch Defense where black exchanges off his valuable dark squared bishop. Kasparov's 4. Nf3 seemed to be well thought out in this match. |
|
Aug-21-17 | | Toribio3: Chess is full of surprises. Karpov did not expect Kasparov to play this kind of variation of Nimzo Indian. |
|
Aug-21-17 | | Nerwal: <This provoked a storm of applause in the auditorium: it was a unique occurrence in matches for the world championship (and also a rarity in grandmaster play) for a sealed move to be made openly.> Botvinnik related regarding Botvinnik vs Bronstein, 1951 that Bronstein moved 41... ♔e5 quickly so that Botvinnik would have to seal, but since it came after the arbiters had asked him to seal a move, this was ruled as an open sealed move. |
