May-13-15 | | DanielHoseano: Could be a good puzzle. With black to play 11.? |
|
Aug-10-18 | | andrewjsacks: 11...Ke7. Remarkable. |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: 11...Ke7 is in fact quite logical continuation. With uncovered Rook on h8 white can play sometimes Bg5, and for black it is not easy to find any way how to finish reasonably his development. Of course, 11...0-0 loses the game instantly for 12.Bxh6 gxh6 13.Qxh6 Re8 14.Ng5 Qe7 (14...Bf8 15.Bh7+ Kh8 16.Nxf7#) 15.Bh7+ Kh8 16.Bg6+ Kg8 17.Bxf7+ Qxf7 18.Nxf7 etc. |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: 34...Kd8 was a serious mistake from Karpov, 34...Bf7 was necessary. But both players were short of time in this phase of game before the time control. |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: <RookFile> 11....Ke7 was not about confusing opponent, it was a correct solution of opening problems of black in this line. The game was not decided in the opening but black was not worse or he was even better with his extra Pawn until the severe time pressure before the first time control, where both players played inaccurately and where Gata could have won the game after Karpov's mistakes in moves 34 and 37 (34...Bf7 ∓ and 37...Rh2 = were better moves). |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: If 36.Qh8, then 36...Rxc2 looks quite forced. |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: 34...Bf7! 35.h6 (35.b3 Qxh5) 35...Qxc4 36.Bb3 Qd3+ 37.Qxd3 Rxd3 38.Bc2 Rh3 39.h7 Be6 40.Rf1 f5 41.Bxf5 Bxf5+ 42.Rxf5 Ke6 -+ |

 | | HeMateMe: Is 38. K-c1 a forced win for white? |
|
Aug-10-18 | | Caissa04: Whoever was Karpov's second at the time did a great job considering 11...Ke7 as an idea, beautiful! |
|
Aug-10-18 | | Caissa04: HeHateMe, yes. 38.Kc1 would definitely win for white, I guess time trouble got the better of Gata Kamsky. |
|
Aug-10-18
 | | Honza Cervenka: <HeMateMe: Is 38. K-c1 a forced win for white?> Yes, it is. After 38.Kc1 Rd4 39.Be4! black cannot stop h-Pawn, and if 38...Rh2, then 39.Rd1 pins and wins the Bishop on d7. |

 | | AylerKupp: Well, my theory is that, just like in L Palau vs S Kalabar, 1927, Karpov meant to play 11...Qe7 in preparation for an eventual 0-0-0 but inadvertedly touched his king and therefore <had> to play 11...Ke7. Then, as the saying goes, "if life gives you a lemon, make lemonade" and Karpov went on to win the game. So all this talk about the "brilliancy" of 11...Ke7 and the fact that Karpov uncovered it during home analysis is "interesting" but nothing more. After all, Karpov probably might have considered it embarrassing if the "truth" were known so he would have encouraged these "alternative facts". Anyway, that's my theory and I'm sticking with it. :-) |

 | | AylerKupp: <Troller> Thanks, I wasn't aware of that game. And having Pirc call it a novelty was hilarious. I wonder how many other "novelties" are the result of a player making a move other than the one he intended to make! |
|
Jun-02-19 | | Roark: Where does it say or who said that Tigran Petrosian/ Iron Tigran was Karpov's idol? Source please. He had worked with so many coaches that had differing styles than him of course. Zaitsev, Tal he always blitzed and analysed with and his earlier coach in Tolush. |

11. ..Ke7
'Gata stared at the board and couldn't belive his eyes. First he thought I was just kidding him. Then he started to think and found out it is actually not such a bad idea. Simply g5 is threatened' A certain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze9... in his own words, 1998 The position was analysed beforehand and the move was found together with his trainer Mikhail Podgaets . And deservedly so it was voted as one of the most significant opening discoveries at the time. 'Overshadowed' only by Yacov Isaakovich Murey uncorking the stunning 4. ... Nc6 in the 'Russian Defense' the same year. Timman vs Murey, 1993 |
