| Apr-24-08 | | ongyj: Man this game looks great even when I replay the moves. It seems that there's no proper refutation yet, if I'm not mistaken? Any new names for this move / line yet? |
 |
| Apr-25-08 | | ivan999: cheparinoff works for topalov using vesko's resources (computers) so it is OK if topalov used nxf7 i think. |
|
| Jun-03-08 | | sheaf: i dont know about the quality of this game as kramnik has raised some serious doubts over Nxf7, its not really clear whether its indeed a high quality. but the photograph here is probably the best picture available in chess world. |

 | | acirce: I'd very much like to see if Topalov would repeat 12.Nxf7 - against anyone, but especially against Kramnik. I don't doubt that Kramnik would allow it. That would be a much better test of its objective qualities. Somehow I suspect it was just meant as a one-off surprise weapon though. |
|
| Jun-12-08 | | ivan999: has someone allowed the anti-moscow against either toplaov or cheparinof yet? i don't think so |
|
| Sep-04-08 | | medstu56: topalov is legion |
|
| Sep-04-08 | | pacorrum: Topalov is the Tal of computer age chess... |

| Sep-13-08 | | shahjinan: <stratomaster: According to this article, http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail..., Bobby Fischer reccomended this line to Topalov. Pretty cool. Apr-01-08 llauro: <stratomaster> it will be really really very interesting knowing if the telling is or not true.
If it is true... how many new ideas coming from Fisher would have being played in the last +30 years? And who played them? Unfourtunatly Fisher is dead, but (if the story is true) will people let know which ideas came from B.F. or not? What would you do? (remember they promised to not reveal he gave the idea, does it apply now he is not here?)> Wake up guys!!! There wasn't internet in 1978. That was definitely April Fool trick. Fischer was definitely the best geneous that ever been...I hate such kind of prank on the best who is dead right now. |

| Sep-13-08 | | Woody Wood Pusher: This game doesn't count, I read Drawnik left his Pocket Fritz on the train so wasn't playing at his usual level. |
|
| Oct-09-08 | | gulko: There is a new defence for black that could refute 12 Nxf7. Here is the line; 14 Ne4 Rab8 15 Nd6ch Ke7 16 Qc2 c5 17 Qg6 Qg8 18 Bg4 Nf8 19 Qh5 cxd4 20 f4 Nd7 21 Bxe6 Qxe6 22 f5 Qxe5 and black is better! |

 | | Kinghunt: What about 17... Nc7? It looks like it holds solidly. I can't see any clear way for white to continue his attack, and black's extra material should lead to either a black win or at the very least a draw. Kramnik's line gives back the material with white having a superior position. After 17... Nc7:

| Feb-28-09 | | Pawnage: I wonder if anyone has ever played into the 'Anti-Moscow Gambit' or something similarly titled to make a political statement.
Anyways, I agree whole-heartedly with <sheaf>, that's the best photo I've seen on CG. |
|
| Jul-30-09 | | crazy monk: nice picture, 3 greatest chess players this century. |
|
| Nov-12-09 | | Tamerlan: Incredible play by Topalov! Probably one of his best games! |
|
| Dec-09-09 | | Pencho: The pun should be changed to Topalov's Immortal. |
|
| Jan-14-10 | | aazqua: 3 greatest chess players this century? What century are you talking about? Kasparov retired in 2005 with the highest rating in history. Carlsen is better than anyone playing today and he isn't even 20 yet. If one of these three is considered in the top 5 of this century I'd be surprised. |
|
| Jan-14-10 | | ivan999: ok who is there, besides kasparov and carlsen, to be placed in front of these three? I'd be surprised if any of these three is not in the top 5. |
|
| Jan-14-10 | | ounos: Wow, <aazqua>, so you plan to be around in 2099, I'm surprized! |
|
| Mar-28-10 | | donehung: This game stands up to anyones best game imo. |
|
| Apr-13-10 | | saad: good game |
