| aulero: The place (Monaco) let me thinking that it was a blindfold game and Karpov forgot the Queen in d3. |

| Dick Brain: Blindfold game at the Amerber tournament in Monaco. The game is real and in '98 Karpov was still a very strong blindfold player. There is always at least a piece hung by someone in that tournament every year. But then there are some fairly deep combinations played too - especially by Kramnik. |

| Knight13: What a sad loss by Karpov. |

| alexmagnus: I wonder what Karpov thought after this game... |

| PinkPanther: This smells a bit fishy though, because not only did the blunder happen so early (I can play this many moves blindfolded), but he blundered the queen only 3 moves after he moved it onto the square that it was captured on. |

| RookFile: He got confused because he
intended to play the Queen's
gambit Accepted, prior to the
game. So, he found a to
transpose. |

| Gowe: I think Karpov made a great combination positional and offensive changing a pawn for a queen and a decisive attack. In my analisis Fritz 8 gives after exd3 +(3.12) enough advantage for karpov. I read an article that he lose on time. Here is some analisis.
16.Bf5 Qe6 17.Rxc7 <and if dxe2 clearly the best then white win easily.>
Great game by karpov, but he has to think faster the next time. |

| hintza: <Gowe> So you are saying Karpov meant to sacrifice the queen? I really doubt that, Black just looks much better to me even in the analysis you give. |

| Orbitkind: What happened? It's hard to believe that this actually happenend. |

| Palma Vest: <Gowe> Are you sure? it's so doubtful that i tested the line on Fritz. After exd3+, Fritz gives -7.56. Karpov lost anyhow. |

| RookFile: It was a blindfold game. Karpov certainly didn't mean to sac his queeen, lol. |
|
| Sep-13-05 |
| you vs yourself: <Gowe> Nice analysis! As you said, I think it's more plausible that Karpov lost on time esp. considering the game had already lasted 13 moves. |

| Chopin: It's good to know that this game was blindfold. I doubt Karpov will make such a huge blunder during a game. |

| MarkN: I agree with <Gowe>, this is a crushing sacrifice that Sadler blindly fell into. The score is obviously wrong. It was Sadler who resigned! |

| Marmot PFL: Even blindfold its hard to believe Karpov could forget where he put his queen...Maybe it was blindfold simul. |

| johnsbrother: Can someone please explain to me how blindfold games work, in particular simultaneous blindfold games? Can the players write the moves down? Thanks |
|

| TheTamale: <johnsbrother: "Can the players write the moves down?"> Not 100% sure, but think not. I think that's part of the prestige in holding the record--being able to keep track of that much in your head at once. |
