Apr-26-05 | | WMD: <What a great game by vlady...probably this was the reason why gary chose him as his second in the following year for WC against vishy...> Kramnik beat Kasparov three times in 1994 (here, New York Intel GP, Linares) and lost one (Novgorod), excluding blitz. |
|
Apr-26-05 | | WMD: 30...Rb4 may well have saved the game for Black. |
|
Nov-14-05 | | alexandrovm: great game by Kramnik. There is not a way to make perpetual checks with black's queen in the final position? |
|
Nov-14-05 | | iron maiden: I shouldn't think so. 41...Qb5+ 42. Kc7 and Black is checkless. |
|
Nov-14-05 | | alexandrovm: <iron maiden: I shouldn't think so. 41...Qb5+ 42. Kc7 and Black...> thank you my friend... |

Nov-15-05 | | dgreatkarpov: kramnik will most certainly defeat topalov |
|
Nov-20-05 | | aw1988: Maybe, maybe not, I'd say a match is quite even, although it would be fascinating chess! |
|
Feb-01-06 | | Conde de Montecristo: <dgreatkarpov: kramnik will most certainly defeat topalov> LOL!!! |
|
Apr-26-06 | | Bob726: why did black play bxd5 on move 25?now white has lots of pawns in the center that will soon become passed pawns |
|
Apr-26-06 | | who: He may have overlooked the bishop sac. |
|
Jun-08-06 | | KingG: Fantastic game by Kramnik, even though it is just a rapid game. |
|
Oct-20-06 | | Sularus: <dgreatkarpov> ... and so he has. |
|
Nov-10-06 | | su24: <Conde de Montecristo: <dgreatkarpov: kramnik will most certainly defeat topalov>

Feb-05-07 | | you vs yourself: Wow! Amazing game by Kramnik. |
|
Feb-05-07 | | IMDONE4: Impressive rout using both his and kasparov's pawns to shield his king. |
|
Feb-27-07 | | dabearsrock1010: the king march to the other end of the board is awesome...i chuckled watching it because i could never imagine myself doing something like that with that kind of material left on the board. |

 | | Benzol: After viewing this fantastic game I find it interesting that Kramnik lost to Anand in the final. |
|
Nov-21-07 | | Kaspablanca: I think this was the first game that Kramnik beats Kasparov, what a game to be the 1st win for Kramnik. |
|
Apr-25-08 | | TheDude: I can say only one: WOW!! |
|
Aug-28-08 | | arsen387: what a great player Kramnik is! This game is awesome!! |
|
Aug-28-08 | | Red October: the White King in the final stages looks like a soccer forward dodging the defenders in an attempt to cross the ball |

Aug-28-08 | | visayanbraindoctor: This amazing game was played by the young Kramnik, which we do not see much of nowadays ever since he changed his opening repertoire to suit matches rather than tournaments and started playing more quietly. Aside from the game itself, there are some other pretty amazing facts and implications. One, Kramnik was only 18 years old at this time. Two, this 18 year old newbie to international chess actually outplayed the reigning and greatest chess World Champion in history, something that few GMs have ever done. Kasparov did not blunder this game away; he lost it fair and square. Three, unlike many top GMs, Kramnik clearly shows that he has no fear of Kasparov, no jinx; he fought the great GKK hand to hand, toe to toe, tactic for tactic. Kasparov's inability to cast a chess hex over a teen-aged Kramnik, something that he did to other top GMs, would tell decisively in their World Championship match 6 years later. Four, this game showed the chessworld that the young Kramnik was a genuine chess talent capable of becoming World Champion in the future. |

Sep-26-08 | | sergeidave: Tons of guts by Kramnik!! |

Jan-15-09 | | WhiteRook48: Yikes. One can only imagine Kasparov's face after this game... |
