Mar-03-14 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1985    chrisfalter: @HeHateMe - The gambit 8...d5!? was first played in Brisbane. See http://answers.yahoo.com/question/i... for details.      Jan-06-14 Milov vs Anand, 2005   chrisfalter: GM Alejandro Ramirez analyzes this game up to 17....f5 in his excellent DVD, "Attacking with the Benko Gambit, Vol 1."      Jun-12-13 Smeets vs Ivanchuk, 2010   chrisfalter: This is game 86 in Vassily Ivanchuk 100 Selected Games by Kalinichenko.

Bf3, and white has material equality with a better position. @drnooo - the point of 30...Nxb2 ...      Mar-11-13 Gulko vs A Kochyev, 1978   chrisfalter: This is game 2 in Joel Sneed's wonderful book, Lessons with a Grandmaster II      Feb-19-13 Nakamura vs Giri, 2013   chrisfalter: GM Daniel King has posted analysis of this game at his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTSM...      Jan-24-13 Harikrishna vs Van Wely, 2013    chrisfalter: GM Daniel King made this game his "Play of the Day" for round 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVJK...      Jan-09-13 Suba vs I Farago, 1976    chrisfalter: Suba annotates this game in his entertaining and instructive game collection, Dynamic Chess Strategy.

However, you must understand French if you wish to benefit from the video.      Jan-04-13 Marshall vs Capablanca, 1909    chrisfalter: Speaking of editing errors, here's my post in good English: @Boomie - After 21...g5 22. Qg3 Lakdawala gives 22...Rxe3 23. fxe3 Nxe4 and white has insufficient compensation for the pawn deficit. Also, 21...e5 is not a shot that Capa missed; it is a mistake he avoided (22.
