Jan-03-08 | | Billy Vaughan: <whiteshark>LOL, I bet Kaspy just didn't want the ignominy of losing in, like, 13 moves. Amazing game! |
|
Feb-05-08 | | hedgeh0g: It's very rare to see a GM lose his queen within 15 moves and Kasparov no less! Something only Ivanchuk could pull off. |
|
Mar-23-08 | | Paraconti: Why not 11...0-0? |
|
Mar-23-08 | | eyalbd: "You insulted me in the opening therefore I will insult you back by playing till the mate" I am sure that was in Kasparov's mind during the game. |
|
Mar-23-08 | | thegreatzidane: 11 ...0-0 12. Bxg7 Kxg7 13. Qxf6+ Kxf6 14. Nd5+ and loses the queen. |
|
Apr-16-08 | | The Rocket: was this classical chess?, from what I know ivanchuk beat kasparov 4 times in classical chess, is that correct?. |
|
Jun-22-08 | | sallom89: Amazing play by Ivanchuk. |
|

 | | sleepyirv: <eyalbd> It isn't insulting if White was right to play it. |
|
Jan-26-09 | | Stuckman: It's pretty obvious Kasparov accidentally ate a brownie from a local bakery before the game, forgetting that he was in Amsterdam. Ha ha, okay, bad joke. |
|
Jan-04-10 | | eyalbd: 14...♕d8? was a mistake since black can save the game by 14...♗g7! 15.bxa5 ♗xf6 16.♘xf6+ ♔g7 and thanks to the threat on both Knights black regains his lost piece. |

 | | maxi: Kasparov only made one mistake, 9...e5??, which opens lines for an attack on the weak square f6 and leaves a nice hole in d5. You just cannot do that against Ivanchuk. |
|
Aug-24-10 | | licuan: what a skilled matador CHUCKY was! |
|

 | | HeMateMe: Had to replay it, when I saw the Queen was gone. Thought it was a hallucination or bad score sheet. |
|
Dec-26-10 | | Blunderdome: Yeah, I think 14...Bg7 would be OK for black. 14...Bg7 15. bxa5 Bxf6 16. Nxf6+ Kg7 17. Nxh7 Kxh7 18. Nb3 or 15. Qxg7 Kxg7 16. bxa5 exd4 |
|
Jan-29-11 | | TheOutsider: Played out terribly by Ivanchuk. I've always found it strange how these players find the will to play on after losing their queen in the opening/earmy middlegame. e5 was the first mistake. |
|
Dec-26-11 | | pablo333: 9... e5 was black's losing move: I'm surprised at Garry Kasparov (of ALL people) making such an error. |
|
Dec-26-11 | | Isolani: Hmm, so I guess 6. f4 is called the Amsterdam variation of the Najdorf. I must admit I did not know that 6. f4 even had a name prior to looking over this game tonight. |
|
May-13-12 | | rilkefan: Per stockfish, 14...Bg7 was 0.5 (depth of 30, 1.5 Gnodes). It prefers simply Nb3 to Bh6, assessing it as 0.7, with main line 11...O-O 12.O-O-O Be6 13.g4 Nbd7 14.Rh2 h6 15.Kb1 b5 16.Rhd2 (depth 28, 1 Gnode). Certainly Bh6 has the advantage of requiring black to defend accurately in an entirely unexpected position. |

Apr-29-14 | | sicilianhugefun: The Ukrainian makes it look so easy to defeat the beast from Azerbaijan... |
|

 | | perfidious: <sicilianhugefun: The Ukrainian makes it look so easy to defeat the beast from Azerbaijan...> Lest those who would sing hosannas for Ivanchuk's play get carried away, this is one of precisely four wins in thirty-seven classical games for Ivanchuk vs Kasparov. |
|
Apr-29-14
 | | plang: Ivanchuk is one of a small group who won as many as 4 classical games against Kasparov. I see that as a positive not a negative. Anand has 3, Topalov 2, Shirov 0, Gelfand 0 etc. |
|
Jun-09-18 | | Toribio3: Kasparov is smart. Ivanchuk is smarter! |
|

 | | ChessHigherCat: <Toribio3: Kasparov is smart. Ivanchuk is smarter!> Much nicer than "Kasparov is smart, Ivanchuk is schmatta!"
http://www.yiddishslangdictionary.c... Ivanchuk and Kasparov were (still are?) both raving geniuses, but K. could deliver more consistently |

|
Mar-27-23 | | Justin796: This Kasparov guy is supposed to be good? And former World Chanpion at that? After b4 by white I clearly would have went danger levels and did bg7 with black, and no you don't need an engine to spot that! Terrible, just terrible play by the ever overrated Gary Kasparov. |
