| ughaibu: It seems churlish to criticise the loser's play merely on account of the result but Shirov's g4 before Polgar has played Nf6 looks rather negative to me. |

| Sneaky: No, 6.g4 is the line. I think it transposes into the Keres Attack. |

| ughaibu: I just looked in the 'games similar' and of players I've heard of Shirov seems to be the main proponent of this move. I dont see the point of it before the knight is on f6, particularly if he's going to follow up with Nb3 allowing black a straightforward queen side fianchetto(?). |

| kostich in time: This is probably Polgars Immortal Game...the sudden counterattack with g5!! and h5!!could not have been the result of home analysis.This si one of Blacks all-time Sicilian wins |
|

| CaissaKnight: Actually, the sudden counter attack was home prep, at least g5. I believe it is mentioned in the Greatest 100 Games by Nunn, Emms, and Burgess |

| Richard Taylor: This is a great game! The attack came out of nowhere - using the pawn strike to break Shirov's pawns to get the knights into the into the centre ! |

| THE pawn: 15.Ne3!! threatening mate. Awsome.
On the other hand, shirov's 15.Na5 was a blunder, he should have recentralised. |

| tpstar: I had Fritz 7 play it out on its highest level = 30. Kxc5 Rac8 31. Kc4 Rhd8 32. Kb3 Rb8+ 33. Kc4 Bd4 34. Bxd4 Nxd4 35. Rxa6 Rbc8+ = no big whoop. Shirov probably thought it was a technical win for Black, especially once the Rooks gain the second rank. Fritz hated 16. Na5 which gave Black a decisive advantage for the rest of the game. |

| WannaBe: This is game 6 in the book 'Chess: the art of logical thinking" by Neil R McDonald. His ending comment is this: "Here at last Shirov gave up as his king will suffer a fatal buffeting by the black rooks after 30. Kxc5 Bxc3 31. bxc3 Rhc8" |

| DeepPink: It is actually one of the games in their book - burgess,nunn and emms. it took "judit just 48 minutes, won the prize for the most important theoretical novelty of the tournament..." buenos aires, argentina 1994 |

<20 ... b3! This move frees the knight - a standard method of rescuing a cornered knight.> |

"This is now my favorite JUDIT Polgar game."

| clocked: Just give up the Queen with 15.exf5. Do any of the books mentioned above give serious consideration to this possibility? |
|

|
| whiteshark: <clocked> "15.exf5 Bxg2 16.Bxg2 Rxh5  " according to Shirov. Is that serious enough for you? |
|
| Sep-14-08 |
| clocked: Shirov's evaluation may be have been superficial. 15.exf6 Bxg2 16.Bxg2 Rxh5!? 17.fxe6 leaves a very messy position with dangers for both sides. |
|

|
| whiteshark: Shirov had played this line just a few weeks before against no less than ... Shirov vs Kasparov, 1994 Judit said she had prepaired this line only 24 hours before the game. |
