Jan-31-05  Poisonpawns: I love this 10.b4 move by beliavsky,must have been a suprise because black seems to be lost by move 17 or earlier.
Jan-31-05  aw1988: 10. b4!!
Nov-23-08  hedgeh0g: 10. b4it
10...Bishop takes b4it
Dec-03-08  KingG: I believe Kasparov was the first to play 10.b4, in his WC match with Short, Kasparov vs Short, 1993.
Dec-03-08  Travis Bickle: This is a great game played by WHT but to me this demonstrates the age of computer chess. Anybody feel the same way?
Dec-03-08  Karpova: <KingG>
This is an even earlier example with White playing 10.b4 in the same position: L Gutman vs Razuvaev, 1976
Dec-04-08  KingG: <Karpova> Thanks. On his the Queen's Gambit Declined DVD, Kasparov seems to imply that he came up with the move, and he gives the variation 10.b4 Bxb4 11.Nxd5 Qxd5 12.Qa4 Bh3 13.Nf4 Qa5 14.Qxa5 Bxa4 15.Nxh3, as played in this game. Maybe he wasn't aware of the game you mention, or perhaps he doesn't count it since Gutman didn't follow up with 11.Nxd5!.
