Feb-12-08		Sleeping kitten: No kibbitz for this nice game? 25...e5 26.f3 b6 27.c5 f5 28.c6 xb1 29.c7 wins. 36.h4! was the move which made the game famous. Whereas the play is far from the beginning, this is in fact the novelty of the game; and it is winning!

Feb-25-08		birdforever: <sleeping kitten> Thank you for your post about how h4 was the novelty. Long story but I had to find the novelty and you help me out imnensely. You're right it is a great game, but h4 makes it all worthwile.

Aug-05-08		Hesam7: click for larger view <<33...e5> We analysed this endgame in 1986, before my third match with Karpov. Great was the temptation to find a forced draw for Black, and it appeared that 33...Ke5 gave hope of this, but a clear-cut way was not in fact discovered> -- Kasparov, Revolution in the 70s, page 201. Today it would be interesting to see what a powerful engine on a fast computer would tell us.

Dec-25-08		morin: Majestic endgame!!!

Apr-06-09		aragorn69: <Hesam7> The Kasparov move 33.-Ke5 has now been played in a GM game: Y Shulman vs M Marin, 2009 And, believe it or not, Black won!...
