Apr-02-06		Bobak Zahmat: After set up a great King side attack Kasparov demolishes Anand's defensive sources. An amazing game which reflects Kasparov's attacking potential.

Dec-08-06		ToTheDeath: Great methodical attack by Kasparov. 11... Nc4 and 17... Nc5 look like improvements. White's initiative is simply too powerful after 22. Bf3.

Jan-14-08		grasser: What is Kasparov inviting with 2.Nc3 and 3.Nge2?

Jan-15-08		MUG: 'Threatening' to play the Closed Sicilian? ... Although he never actually has according to the database!

Jan-09-09		KingG: This game is just brutal. It's amazing how precisely Kasparov plays throughout all the complication. It's difficult to find a single mistake, or even an inaccuracy.

Jan-22-10		CruyffTurn: <grasser: What is Kasparov inviting with 2.Nc3 and 3.Nge2?> He's not <inviting> anything, he's trying to limit Black's options - which Anand ignores - and just transposes to a normal Open Sicilian. He's trying to kid Anand, just mess with him a little, as after 2.Nc3 d6 he has the option of playing 3.f4 for example.

May-23-12		WiseWizard: I was looking for games where the winner creates strong threats on every turn, I knew Kasparov would deliver.
