| fich: This game reminds me of another French that Ivanchuk used against Kasparov. "Frenchkissed"!!! |

| muradov: Here Radjabov, 15 years old, ends Kasparov's 6 year undefeated streak at Linares and 7 seven straight years undefeated streak with the white pieces. The king is dead; long live the new king! :) |

| Mulyahnto: Here's another line after 22. dxe5?, and it seems that black eventually will equalize or win: 22. dxe5? d4 23. 0-0-0!? g5!? 24. Bxg5 dxc3 25. Qe3 Bxg5 26. Qxg5 b4 27. Rxd8+ Rxd8 
click for larger view28. a4 cxb2+ 29. Kb1 c3 30. Ne4 Nd4 31. Nd6+ Kb8 32. Nc4 Qc7 33. Bd3
Black's initiative seems to be overwhelming, but it is still unclear.

| Mulyahnto: <Whitehat1963. What happens if: 1. 25. Bxg5? >
25.  xg5  dg8 and white is compelled to play 26.  xh4 xh4 27. xh4 (black is winning) which may be followed 27. ...  xd4!?. |

| kevin86: A rare loss for the champ-
Just think,the pundits thought that David had rocks in his head for challenging Goliath. (laughing very softly) |

| Phony Benoni: <kevin86> I thought the "David and Goliath" thing meant that Kasparov was stoned. |

| WhiteRook48: Kasparov must be Goliath |

| WeakSquare: Of all openings, Kasparov had the worst score against French. He lost to Ivanchuk, Anand, Dreev (rpd) and Radjabov. He lost 2 Lopezes (to Karpov and Ivanchuk), and a really stupid Sicilian against Lautier. For all it's worth... |
|
| Mar-06-09 |
| Aspirador: <WeakSquare> Yeah, but wasn't the Dreev loss blitz where black castled, it was against the rules and neither player noticed? |
|
| Mar-06-09 |
| Aspirador: Yes, Kasparov vs Dreev, 1994 which he might not have lost without that irregular move. And by the way, Kasparov vs Lautier, 1995 was not that stupid, maybe Kasparov had a bad preparation there but all in all it was a fine win for Lautier. |
|
Mar-07-09
|
| WeakSquare: Oh, yeah, I saw that Dreev game again.
Kasparov lost another "quiet game" to Lautier (Kasparov vs Lautier, 1995) |

| BraveUlysses: It is in the nature of champions that they take losing very badly as a rule. Kasparov is only human and had an off day at the office. He uncharacteristically went into his shell when challenged and then made a blunder (Rdf1?) against a 15 year old rising star, and then the assembled journalists deemed the game the "most beautiful" of the tourney. Is there any wonder he felt insulted, disrespected and probably humiliated?
I think he had every right to be infuriated, it would have felt like everyone was spitefully crowing that he fell after going so long undefeated with white, and not through a brilliancy but through an error by him. This was a fascinating game but it's no Byrne v Fischer. The whole episode, and many of the comments here, smack of the Tall Poppy Syndrome. I'm sure Kasparov regretted his tirade later, but he deserves a little more understanding. He was, in fact, insulted. |

| Lt.Surena: How can anyone compare Bobby 'the one-time-wonder' to Gary? Gary was a World Champion many times over. Gary was not a dirty cheater like Bobby (ie. with his so-called religious holidays in Sousse tournament 1967). We all now know how religious he was, don't we? LMAO !! Bobby put his TAIL BETWEEN HIS LEGS and RAN after 72 and played a lulu for rest of his life. P.S. Bobby also quit the Sousse games (the 3rd one in a row !!). Read the tournament history before passing judgement).Bobby also played his religion con game in Havana tournament in 1966. Go figure .. LoL !! |

| VaselineTopLove: The chessbase link also mentions in the last paragraph "If Anand can let bygones be bygones and play in Dortmund this year.." what made Anand declare he wouldn't play in Dortmund? |
|

| The Chess Tiger: Garry's outburst shows that he is wrong about his statement that "Chess moulds character." in Chess Asia in the 90"s. Chess reveals character. |
