Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-06-07  Manoloo: Annotation isn´t correct, must be 53.Qh8#
Sep-30-08  Poisonpawns: Beautiful maneuver by Kasparov beginning with 23.Nd2 Rae8 24.e4! dxe4 25.Nxc6 bxc6 Seriously weakening black Queen side and leaving a wonderful outpost for the knight.Then 30.b4! fixing the weakness and driving the knight away.Finally i love how Kasparov sheds his extra pawn to reposition his bishop for the kill.So Economical his play,thx garry
Oct-01-08  Poisonpawns: I must return to say after further observation that there seems to be a better alternative for black with 25..Qxc6.Instead of allowing his pawns to be shattered,i think the game is equal after the queen gets chased somewhat.Also 17..g6?! was so unnecessary,No need to weaken the kingside.either Qg5 or Qh4 are fine.Then the knight must simply retreat.
Jan-20-12  Kinghunt: 49...Nf5??, such a shame. I believe virtually any other move would have drawn.

  AylerKupp: <Kinghunt> 49...Nf5 is clearly a blunder but Houdini 1.5a at d=31 indicates that 49...Kf8 is the only move to maintain equal chances. Both 49...Kh7 and 49...Kg7 are slightly worse for Black, evaluated at [-0.22] and [-0.23] respectively although Black can probably hold; 49...Ne6 is probably losing (evaluated at [-1.23]); and all other moves apparently lead to a forced mate by White.
Jan-20-12  Kinghunt: Okay, not quite any other move, but any move that responds to the threat of Qe8+ and Qxf7, which is to say, any king move except the obviously horrible Kh8.

  AylerKupp: Sorry, I'm nitpicking again. I have to stop doing that!
