Kibitzer's Corner
Jun-01-06  zluria: This game is really wierd. 14. Kxe2 is one of the strangest and worst moves I've seen a grandmaster make. Avrukh is swiftly and simply punished for forcing his own King to remain in the middle by an opponent weaker by 200 elo points.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to why 14.Kxe2 was played?
