| Oct-02-05 | | notyetagm: <InspiredByMorphy: Judit plays excellently! 16. ... Bb4+ is slick.> Yes, 16 ... ♗b4+! is one of my favorite <interference> moves. It just seems to come out of nowhere. This nasty tactical shot must have been a terrible surprise for Karpov. No he is stuck with his king in middle of the board, the last thing in the world that you want when facing Judit. |
|
| Jan-20-07 | | ianD: Wow Karpov got his king stuck in the middle and then on the wrong side of the board. |
|
| Mar-04-07 | | azi: Amazing - this little girl making the worlds best look like tyros. I never saw Karpov look worse!!! |
|
| Mar-04-07 | | RookFile: Well, I wouldn't get too excited. Polgar is a strong player of course, but so is Karpov, who put up a plus score against her. |
|
| Mar-04-07 | | azi: Qd6 removed he queen from the lower quadrient where white's oddly placed
pieces are harrassed by Judit's brillant moves. Keeping the queen
local might have allowed him to maintain a tactical balance. Was the handling of the queenside exchanges
best? I thought pxp rather than qxp
on c3 might be a better try. With 20-20 hind sight, Karpov should have castled sooner also imho.Leaving the king on the edge of battle and then moving into the frey -so much for the active king -
was asking too much from his placidly developed pieces. A classic game from
the present. The game could have been played by Capablanca and Alekhine teemed together as white. Judit Polgar
would seem to know more about attacking chess than everybody else.
Its a little scary!

|
| Jul-20-12 | | HOTDOG: 23.dxe6 Rxb2! 24.Rxb2 Qc1+ 25.Qd1 Qxb2 26.exd7 Rd8 and according to Polgar Black is winning, but Karpov now suggests the defence 27.Qd2 and then Nd4, f3 and Kf2 and White is still fighting |
|
| Jan-01-13 | | rogl: I checked with an engine and it turns out that Karpov was wrong here. After his suggested line the position is

| Jul-09-13 | | notyetagm: <InspiredByMorphy: Judit plays excellently! 16. ... Bb4+ is slick.> Slick, indeed. |
|
| Jul-09-13 | | Nerwal: <InspiredByMorphy: Judit plays excellently! 16. ... Bb4+ is slick.> Judit seems to like this tactical shot : see 22... ♗c5 in Timman vs Judit Polgar, 2000 |

| Sep-20-15 | | nazgulord: Awesome pun. |
|
| Sep-20-15 | | The Kings Domain: Heh, one could tell when a pun is inspired or strained to the limit. This obviously falls on the latter, 'though still quite amusing. :-) |

 | | Once: Very impressive game by Judit. I love the way that she uses tactics to support strategy. The stunning 16...Bb4+ puts the Black light squared bishop on the a6-f1 diagonal which stops white from castling. Just a little thing, but it causes lots of problems for Karpov. Very fine play. |
|
| Sep-20-15 | | cunctatorg: Well, at 2003 Anatoly Karpov was clearly five-eight years past his prime! Self-control Judit's fans and followers!!... |

| | Once: <cunctatorg> You can only play the person sitting opposite you. And even in 2003 Karpov was a strong player. I am no Judit fan, but rather a fan of all good chess ... whoever plays it and against whichever player. When I rule the world, the first thing I will ban (after the over-use of the word "like") will be the fan-boy mentality. I swear that if 40% of the internet is porn and 40% is spam, a large part of the remaining 20% is one fan-boy arguing with another that X is better than Y. Judit plays well in this game. I say that because Judit plays well in this game, and not because I hold a fan-boy badge <for> her or <against> Anatoly Karpov. Good chess is good chess when you take your blinkers off. |
|
| Sep-20-15 | | cunctatorg: Judit Polgar is a great attacking player on her own and she conducted many much more impressive games, even masterpieces against players much stronger than THIS 2003 Anatoly Karpov, e.g. against Vishy Anand etc. The real asset of this game is just the abstract concept, the "abstraction" of a victory of Judit Polgar over Anatoly Karpov though the truth is that this Anatoly Karpov isn't really the well known Anatoly Karpov, it's just a weak copy of him; his play is too weak, far beyond his standards... It is also true that after 2003 Karpov conducted a few games where we can see the Karpovian play... |
|
| Sep-20-15 | | cunctatorg: Correction: [... far below his standards...]
The most fascinating Judit's victory I have even seen is her brilliant victory over Vishwanathan Anand at Hoogoven(s) in 1998 where she outplayed a real Vishy Anand; that's a really awesome game, a full-metal masterpiece!! |
|
| Sep-21-15 | | Nerwal: Judit's YouTube channel has the footage of her showing the game to the audience just after it was played : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rF...

 | | plang: 9 e3 is almost as popular as 9 Bf4 but it certainly seems less ambitious. In Hardicsay-Adorjan 1986 Hungarian Team Championship Black had played 12..Rc8 and had gone on to win quickly; Plogar had planned to follow this game but found the stronger 12..a5 over the board. After 16 Bb5?..Bb4+! White was in trouble; better was 16 Ba6..Rc7 17 0-0 with some edge for Black. 20 Qd6? was over-aggressive and just fueled Black's attack. 28 Nxe5..Nxe5 29 Qxe5..Bd3+ 30 Kc1..Rc8+ 31 Bc3..f6 would have won a piece for Black. |
