 | | Everybodychessnow: On move 28 after black has retreated his bishop to g6 white should've played bishop h3 to pin the knight to the rook then Kd3 to e5 29. Bxd7... kxd7 30. Qb2 is best continuation |

| Dec-13-20 | | fisayo123: This is one of the most humiliating defeats in World Championship match history. Karpov was a top 3 player of all time still relatively in his prime at the time this was played. He gets tied and bound down not by just by positional domination but by tactical domination as well. He continues to make natural moves but by move 16 he is completely immobilized. Such a thing has never been seen before or since in World Championship match history. |

| Dec-13-20 | | fisayo123: Kasparov holds 2 of the top 10 greatest chessgames ever played. Kasparov vs Topalov, 1999 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1985 |

| | Plaskett: Kasparov pointed out to me that the notorious 12 Be3! refutation Karpov sprang on van der Wiel (a game in which John actually later had some winning chances!) could be countered by12...Bxe3 13 Qa4+ Bd7!? 14 Qxb4 Qb6 after which he is not convinced black is lost. |

 | | kingscrusher: Isn't the opening technically the "Taimanov variation" According to Wiki:
Taimanov Variation: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nc6 Maybe some opening theoretician can correct me here about this variation. |
|
Feb-21-22
 | | perfidious: <kingscrusher>, could well be, but this is one of those lines which is very slippery that way. |
|
| Feb-21-22 | | Olavi: Yes. Taimanov himself called this the Paulsen and only 5.Nc3 a6 and 6...Nge7 the Taimanov. |
|

 | | GrahamClayton: 24. Nb2 Qf6 25. Nxd3 Bxd3 26. Qxd3 Ne5 and Karpov's queen is trapped in the middle of the board. |

 | | gezafan: Karpov used to play this Sicilian variation himself at one time. |
