Dec-04-05 | | TopaLove: This game is fantastic. I only understood 16 ... a3 after 18 ... e4. It pins the knight on c3 cause of the threat axb2. Then Kasparov starts his fireworks ... |
|
Dec-04-05 | | KingG: Unbelievable game. |
|
Feb-13-07 | | abcpokerboy: Holy mackerel! This has to be one of the strongest examples either of preparation or intuition I've ever seen. Either way it is another Kasparov classic attack ! |

Nov-30-08 | | hedgeh0g: <What happens after 13.Rxh5?> Probably ...f5.
Great game. |
|
Mar-04-09 | | KingG: It's absolutely incredible that this game was played in a simul. |
|
Jun-10-09 | | hedgeh0g: I'm going to Fritz this game. I can't begin to grasp some of the complications Kasparov dives into in his classic KID games. |
|
Jun-10-09 | | ozmikey: Sometimes in the King's Indian it seems that no matter how much material White is ahead, if that g7 bishop is unleashed and White's king-side is under the cosh, Black always seems to win. My old friend Ry Curtis (R Curtis), a former Oz junior champion, had a period where he would regularly go a piece down in the KID and still come up with the point! |
|
Mar-19-10 | | Garech: 29. Be3 apparently is the beginning of the end (according to Fritz, but only on shallow depth) - but before then white was doing okay, and even missed some strong continuations. The decisive mistake of course was 31.Rf4. Great game in any case - Kasparov at his dynamic best in the good old days when he played the KID. |
|
May-22-10 | | Catfriend: I don't usually like comments consisting purely of praise and worship, without anything substantial - but now I'll do it anyway. <<Holy @#$%!>> Sometimes we forget just how horrible and all-destroying The Beast could be. |
|
Jul-30-12 | | talljack: I don't have Fritz installed at the moment, (taking a break) but I can't find a win or even a draw here for Black after 28. Rxf4 instead of Bxf4. Anyone see it? |
|
Feb-03-13 | | IndigoViolet: Houdini 1.5 confirms that 28.Rxf4 still leaves Black with a serious, probably winning advantage: 28.Rxf4 Bxf4 29.Bxf4 e3 30.Bxe3 Bxb1 31.Nxb1 Qe7! or 29.Rxb2 Be5! 30.Rb3 (30.Ng3 h5 31.gxh6 Qf6!) Bh5 31.Kg1 Bf3! |
|
Nov-16-13 | | talljack: Thanks, Indigo. |
|
Oct-13-15 | | ToTheDeath: Hammer blow after Hammer blow! The French GM got taught a lesson about what happens when you try to pawn storm Kasparov's King's Indian! |

White is clearly better

After 16.Kg2 Black is fine with prospects |

 | | HeMateMe: Hmmm ....can someone lay out the pun? |
|
Nov-13-24
 | | beatgiant: Kasparov played an enviable attack in the city of Evry, so "the envy of everyone" (a familiar expression, and in case that's not enough, also the title of a recent film). |
|
Nov-13-24 | | goodevans: “The envy of Evry, Won” would have been better |

 | | Teyss: This was not your standard simul: one GM (Kouatly), all other opponents IMs (some future GMs), former French Champions (Haik, Kouatly, Miralles), one former Iranian Champion (Sharif). And Kasparov had Black in half of the games, as if he were playing a tournament... only against all opponents at the same time. +3 -0 =3: a piece of cake (French one of course, they're the best). The year before he was playing the same patzers (except Bellet instead of Renet) with a result of +4 -1 =1: Kasparov Simul, 6b Evry (1988). He did a few other "super simuls" from 1985 to 2001: Game Collection: Kasparov's super simuls. For breakfast we eat cereals, Kasparov eats IMs. |

 | | Teyss: <goodevans: “The envy of Evry, Won”> A definite improvement increasing the pun rating from 2/5 to 4/5. |
|
Nov-13-24 | | stone free or die: Thanks <beat>, I missed the game location and was wondering myself. |
