 | | chessgames.com: steve alford: cool it with the slurs. |
 |
| Jul-29-03 | | pawntificator: Incidentally, I wrote that comment before looking at the game, and I can't make any sense out of your post. |

 | | crafty: 89.  c8  b5 90. f8 h7+ 91.  g8 a3 92. e8 g7+ = (eval 0.00; depth 17 ply; 500M nodes) |
|
| Jul-29-03 | | Major: I was wondering why Kasparow didn't play 8.Qxd3
? |
|

 | | Sneaky: Major, you must have in mind 8...Qxd4? The point is that it loses the queen to 9.Be3! Cute trap, huh? |
|
| May-06-04 | | ULU: Why 50. Nxa5 She gives up the knight for no good reason that I can see. |
|
| Jun-24-04 | | Whitehat1963: What on earth is 50. Nxa5 about? |
|
| Oct-01-04 | | Apocalypse79: My first visit.. hm.. the rule of not giving turn changed this game end.. hehe... |

|
| Oct-06-05 | | NoDefense: Judit blundered on move 79 with Ra1. If she played Rf1+, she could still draw the game. |
|
| Oct-19-05 | | baffersty: how did Kasparov miss a simple mate on move 30. (Queen takes Bishop = Mate)??? |
|
| Oct-19-05 | | psmith: <baffersty> Black's Queen is pinned. Your move is illegal. |
|
| Oct-19-05 | | baffersty: thanks psmith I must be losing it! |
|
| Apr-02-07 | | AdrianP: Most players would not even try to win the R + N v R endgame (which is almost invariably drawn - as in fact the present game is: 79 Rf1+ draws). Nunn says - after giving this game - "It is up to the individual whether to continue this ending, but I would only regard it as worthwhile in the case of a quick-play finish.". |
|
| Dec-25-07 | | mistreaver: Tibor Karoly in his book "Kasparov fightning's chess" says Kaspy missed 1 win along the way, but he doesn't give the whole game. Can some1 help where exactly Kaspy could win before entering the endgame. |

 | | 4tmac: 79. R-f1+ draws. All other moves lose. Thereafter, the game is lost. Great technique from Kasparov after Judit allowed Garry the slightest chance. |
|
| Sep-03-08 | | Whitehat1963: Okay, I'll ask the question again: What on earth is 50. Nxa5 all about? Is that a misprint? Why not 50. Nxd4???? |
|

 | | norami: <Whitehat1963> Maybe she thought 50. Nxa5 would lead to a RNvR endgame that was an easier draw than the pawn down endgame after 50. Nxd4. |
|
| Sep-12-08 | | michaelkrink: 50 Rc4!? |
|
| Sep-17-08 | | einneu: Kasparov seems to ignore the basic winning plan in such cases.82...Rd6 83.Kg8 Ng5 84.Kf8 Re6 85.Rb8 Nh7+ 86.Kg8 Re7 0-1.Of course he would discover it on board if needed.After 79.Ra1? white is lost.Correct would be 79.Rf1+ Nf5 80.Rf2 Rd4 81.Kg8=. The difference with the game continuation is that after 79.Rf1+ Nf5 80.Rf2 Kg6 81.Rg2+ Kf7 the black rook can not attack from the "h" file so white can simply play 82.Rf2= instead of locking her rook in the 8th file. |
|
| Aug-31-09 | | TheMacMan: kasparov should have accepted if not first then at least her second offer for a draw, jerk move |
|
| Jul-04-10 | | Whitehat1963: Why is it a "jerk move" <TheMacMan>? He did end up winning, didn't he? Isn't that the point of playing? |
|
| Jul-04-10 | | zanshin: <Whitehat1963: Okay, I'll ask the question again: What on earth is 50. Nxa5 all about? Is that a misprint? Why not 50. Nxd4????> Rybka 4 seems to agree:

|
| Nov-19-12 | | vinidivici: Kasparov has done the perfect endgames measured by human skill. And too bad for Polgar, knight vs rook + knight should end DRAW with just a little bit difficulty, Anyway, this game deserves a GOTD!! |
