| Nov-24-21 | | Mathematicar: Lasker, Capablanca and Karpov are my favourites. Karpov mainly because he is strongly influenced by the genius of Capablanca. On the other hand, modern players... Too much computer assistance there. |

| Feb-03-22 | | VerySeriousExpert: A.Karpov is a great person in chess history, but each great player has played some very bad games. Here is one of them (1976), where A.Karpov's terrible blunder was on the 12th move. But Yury V. Bukayev has discovered its natural and rare cause!

| | Messiah: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anato... <Karpov expressed support of the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, and accused Europe of trying to demonize Putin.[35] In August 2019, Maxim Dlugy said that Karpov had been waiting since March for the approval of a non-immigrant visa to the United States, despite frequently visiting the country since 1972. Karpov had been scheduled to teach a summer camp at the Chess Max Academy. Dlugy said that Karpov had been questioned at the US embassy in Moscow about whether he planned to communicate with American politicians.[36] Karpov was among the Russian State Duma members placed under sanctions by the EU during the 2021–2022 Russo-Ukrainian crisis.[37]> abominable, loathsome putinist satan |

| Mar-07-22 | | Polonia: in match play kasparov beat karpov only by 2 games? in 1987 match was tied... in 1994 before linares... kasparov regretted saying whoever wins tournmanent is real champion and karpov had almost 3000 point performance! karpov (how could you and duma give put-in aka stal-in jr crown for life) and 350 duma losers banned by eu!

 | | FSR: "FIDE moved to strip one of the world’s most famous chess players, the Russian grandmaster and former world champion Anatoly Karpov, of his title of FIDE Ambassador for Life. As a member of the Duma, or Russian Parliament, Mr. Karpov supported President Vladimir V. Putin’s decision to recognize the independence of two separatist regions in Ukraine, which set the stage for Russia’s assault, FIDE officials said." https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/03/... |

 | | perfidious: Required reading for those who live and breathe by the verdict of Stockfish, from the interview with Karpov: <....In game six (of the 2021 title match), in which (Nepo) had Black, it seems as if he was very close to a win. Now, there are many people who say that the computer shows that there was no direct win, but what the computer shows is one thing, but a practical game is completely different.... under the pressure of the clock things are not so simple....> |

| Mar-10-22 | | Polonia: f stockfish! thats out of reality when playing under time control! |
|
| Mar-11-22 | | Polonia: so fischer refused to play in 1975, then karpov was de facto champion in 1974 as that was the last match for the cmapionship! |
|
| Mar-18-22 | | Polonia: whats up with karpov's rematch clause?

so karpov was de facto champ in 1974? no, fischer did not defand in 1975 and he should have to cement his legacy! |

 | | MissScarlett: The September 1979 <BCM>. p.426, notes the wedding of Anatoly and Irina in Moscow on June 2nd 1979, with a couple of pictures of the beaming groom (whose teeth have been fixed) and the blushing bride (quite tasty). The second Mrs. Karpov, I believe. I pass on this information, conscious that the chess biographical community shows little apparent interest in the family affairs of the great players. |
|
| May-26-22 | | Olavi: <MissScarlett: The second Mrs. Karpov, I believe.> The first (of two). Karpov wrote in one of his books (Karpov on Karpov, I think) that after losing his father and Furman the possibility of a marriage began to take shape. The exact wording may have been slightly different. |

| | perfidious: <keypusher.....It's hard to say that Kasparov is underrated, except by the ignorant, but one thing that tends to get underplayed is how infrequently he lost. A good deal less often than Fischer, despite playing the very strongest opposition continuously for decades.> Not to mention coming in for relatively few defeats despite venturing into razor-sharp theoretical lines as often as Kasparov did, which is a tribute to his greatness. |

German wikipedia gives Irina as the first, Natasha the latter. She sure was/is a statuesque blonde. Now that I think of it, the tournament book of Hamburg 1982 has a short interview with Karpov, where he mentions Irina. |

| May-26-22 | | Olavi: Indeed the Russian wiki also. I think I side with Soviet propaganda here. |
