Oct-22-05		Corwin: the final position is very pretty, black can't hang to meterial.

Sep-18-10		whiteshark: This game was part of a clock simultan against the Bundesliga-team of Hamburg (HSV) which Kasparov won with 7:1. This is board 1 game. Kind of revenge as he'd lost against this team in 1985 with 3.5:4.5

Sep-18-10		whiteshark: Final position click for larger view Threat is 26.Rxd6. If <25...Ra7> then 26.Qxe5. An obviously Ra8 can't clear the a-file.

Sep-18-10		whiteshark: Here you can see how 'hot for revenge' Kasparov actually was. He'd prepaired <17.b4> as improvement to a game Stein played the year before against Farago. click for larger view [Event "Dortmund op"] [Site "Dortmund"] [Date "1986.??.??"] [Round "9"] [White "Farago, Ivan"] [Black "Stein, Bernd"] [Result "1/2-1/2"] [ECO "A55"] [WhiteElo "2520"] [BlackElo "2405"] 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 d6 3.
