Kibitzer's Corner
Sep-24-03  PinkPanther: A simply brilliant game from Timman! 25... Ne2+!!
Sep-25-03  AdrianP: If you liked this game, check out Korchnoi vs Kasparov, 1982

Dennis Monokroussos has a presentation on this game on chess.fm, which explains the relationship between these two games. Jan Timman had produced prior to this an important novelty in this line.

Sep-25-03  AdrianP: Timman's previous novelty was 15... Rf1 played first, I think, in this game P Scheeren vs Timman, 1980 and that together with Kasparov's treatment largely put this line to bed for W.
Mar-23-05  Whitehat1963: An excellent game featuring the Opening of the Day.
