| Jun-04-09 | | crawfb5: This game was part of a simul by Kasparov against an Argentinean team made up of Panno, Rubinetti, Ricardi, Zarnicki, Spangenberg, and Amura. Kasparov won 4-2 on day one and 5-1 on day two. |
|
| Jun-04-09 | | Jim Bartle: I watched one of these against Peru's #2 to #7 (Granda missed it--boo!), and it looked like Kasparov's head was about to explode the whole time, he was so energized. There were times when he was just waiting, as all six opponents were on the clock. |
|
| Jun-06-09 | | crawfb5: <Jim Bartle> That must have been something to see! It doesn't look like those games are here in CG's database. That was six games in Lima, 1993, against Aparicio, Munoz, Reyes, Oblitas, Requejo, and Urday Caveres, with a result of 5.5-.5, correct? |
|
| Jun-06-09 | | Jim Bartle: I think that's about right, though the right name probably Urday CACERES. I'm pretty sure it was four wins and two draws, so 5-1. |
|
| Jun-06-09 | | crawfb5: Both New in Chess and ChessBase online databases have Reyes drawing and Kasparov winning the other five games. NiC has Urday Caceres misspelled as "Urday Caveres," but CB has it right. |
|
| Jun-06-09 | | Jim Bartle: Could be right, but I remember that the junior player Muñoz also got a draw. Wouldn't swear to it. Last game to finish was a long rook endgame with Urday. He said the difference between playing the game when K was moving from board to board, and playing only him, staring daggers across the board and seemingly about to explode, was like night and day. |

| Jun-06-09 | | Jim Bartle: Great, my memory is failing. I remember K praised the 15-year-old Muñoz afterward as a promising player. If you have the score to the game vs. Oblitas, I would love to see it. Somehow Oblitas (with black) ended up with his kingside totally undeveloped at move 19, and K just began to sacrifice piece after piece until Oblitas had to resign at move 25 or so. And apparently just to be sadistic, K made the first two moves of the combination, then left Oblitas for an hour or so looking at his wrecked position, while he tended to the other games. |

Final position:
click for larger viewI'm sure Kasparov could see promise even in a losing effort, so that may be what you remember. To my amateur's eye Munoz didn't lose as badly as some others have in these clock simuls. |
