Larsen loves advancing his rook pawns; just look at http://www.chesscafe.com/text/dvore.... In this it does seem an extremely unwise plan, although not completely pointless. |
 |
| Jan-08-05 | | aw1988: That is somewhat different, and had he not been playing Fischer... However, in this case it achieves nothing. |
|
| Jan-08-05 | | aw1988: In fact, a player other than Fischer would still find it. |
|
| Apr-25-05 | | ryanpd: Games like this are the reason why 11. ... e6?! is no longer played. The Ng6 sacrifice is a common motif in this opening and I don't think it is deserving of a !, but rather Larsen should get a ? for not anticipating it. Some analysis: [Event "Tilburg"]

| Apr-25-05 | | offramp: Why is 14...a4 worth a dollar more than your 19.Be7? |
|
| Apr-25-05 | | ryanpd: Sorry for the confusion, but under the PGN format I'm using with ChessBase, the symbols are expressed in terms of $x and so on. ($2) is the symbol for a ? and ($1) is the symbol for a !. So I am giving a ? to "a4?" and a ! to "Be7!" |
|
| Apr-25-05 | | offramp: Seeing this game reminded me of another great game by Belyavsky, A Afifi vs Beliavsky, 1985. |
|
| Apr-25-05 | | offramp: <ryanpd: Games like this are the reason why 11. ... e6?! is no longer played.> It is still played! N Coenen vs G Margvelashvili, 2004. |
|
| Apr-26-05 | | offramp: Caro-Kann players always have to be on the lookout for massive sudden attacks like this. Karpov had to use all his skills in this game, Van der Wiel vs Karpov, 1987 to avoid defeat, and he lost this melée, Kasparov vs Karpov, 1988, though he could have won at one point and only lost on time.
Tal was great at attacking the Caro-Kann, and in Tal vs Botvinnik, 1960 he gave his venerable opponent a very unpleasant couple of hours. He could have drawn but he also lost. And in this game, oddly not in the database, Kavalek goes a bit mad. I wonder if he missed a win anywhere? [Event "Tournament of Stars, Montreal"]

|
| May-03-05 | | ryanpd: <offramp> Perhaps I should say at the highest levels then. 11. ... Qa5+ is much stronger- there is no point in leaving the bishop on the strong f4 square. Larsen's play in this game was very passive, even for a Caro-Kann. |
|
| Jul-11-05 | | aw1988: <Why is 14...a4 worth a dollar more than your 19.Be7?> That has to be one of the funniest things ever. |

|
| Feb-06-06 | | morpstau: 15.Ng6 doesent look sound to me. Perhaps black could have accepted the sacrifice with 15. ...fxg6 16.Qxg6+ Kf8 17.Rxe6 Qe8 18.Nf5 Re8 19.Rde1 Bb4 or if 18.Bd6 Nd5 19.c4 Qxg6 19.hxg6 Bxd6 20.cxd5 Bf4+ and black remains a piece up. |
|
| Feb-06-06 | | LIFE Master AJ: 15.Ng6!!! is completely sound ... and the first choice of Fritz 9 ... but only after about 30 minutes of machine time. |
|
| Feb-06-06 | | morpstau: I see than computers are the better of humans concerning annotation that is. |
|
| Feb-07-06 | | LIFE Master AJ: <morpstau>
This game is also analyzed in countless books, NIC yearbook, The Informant, etc. Did you look at my page? (The link is given just above?) |
|
| May-31-08 | | ToTheDeath: A masterpiece by Beliavsky. |

 | | Ulhumbrus: On 17 Bd6 Black still can't play 17...fxg6 as White can still play 18 Nxg7+! (as in the Kavalek comment quoted by morphynoman2) followed by Qg6+ and a rapid mate 23 Bxe5 threatens 24 Nxg7+ Ke7 25 Qe6 mate and Black has no satisfactory answer to the threat. |
|
| May-20-09 | | LIFE Master AJ: http://www.ajschess.com/lifemastera... ALL GeoCities sites will be closing later this year. (Thus the move.) |

|
| Jan-06-12 | | ZeejDonnelly: What a vicious game by Beliavsky, considering how "quiet" of a reputation the C-K has. |
|
| Jan-06-12 | | gezafan: Even grandmasters should do things such as castling to make their kings safer. |

 | | rogl: It's interesting to see how fast the development of computers is. In 2006 <LIFE Master AJ> wrote that it took Fritz9 30 minutes to see that 15.Ng6 is white's best move. Now Houdini3 immediately gives Ng6 as best. |
