Surprisingly, Black is worse off with the d5 pawn, which "boxes in" his king. ("The unex pected and brilliant move" generously and objectively noted Kasparov). " The key words here are automatic (try not to reply automatically, and do not expect only automatic replies) and break through (as an opposite to "to build an impregnable fortress.") gxh4 (the basis of our analysis), after which White cannot break through.

gxh4?, Garry writes, "In expectation of the automatic reply 47. In Chess, Unlike Checkers, (Re) Captures Aren't MandatoryĬommenting on 46. at least three points deficit in just one hun dred games! After that, I never made just in case a move was missing quick after time control move (of course, if you believe you're lost, you may continue blitzing, hoping your opponent will do the same and blunder). Then find out how many points you lost by making a 41st move quickly." Personally, I was put on the right path here by Botvinnik, who told me "Lev, go over your games and see how often you missed a move. Making a quick after time control move is common among players of all levels usually it's done in order to avoid a for feit in case you've missed writing down one of your moves.

h6, these pawns are no longer on the same rank. Re5! would have saved the game, as the white rook in one key line devours both kingside pawns after gift move 41. Qd4?, and now writes "To this day I just can't understand why I went in for the exchange of queens, instead of making an obvious attacking move in my style 25. The evaluation of the position is obvious: White has an irresistible attack." In the given instance, all Black pieces are bunched together on the queenside, having left their lone king to its fate. Writes Kasparov, "Here it would have done no harm for me to remember that in my childhood I liked to arbitrarily divide the chessboard into right and left halves, and see what the balance of forces was in each of them. The Time Control Is Over? Then, Stop, Calm Down And Think. History lovers, as well as practical players, from category D to super grandmasters will find many things to enjoy, and to learn. Then chapter three the match stopped and de facto cancelled, in which person alities like Florencio Campomanes (FIDE president), Vitaly Sevastyanov (president of the Soviet Chess Federation and Ana toly Karpov's friend) and Heydar Aliev (Politburo member, Kasparov's patron) reign supreme.įinally, chapter four gives all 24 games of the second, (not unlimited) match, where Garry, after dramatic defenses, won the 24th game (a draw would suffice) to become the 13th world champion.Īll 76 games are well analyzed, provid ing "insider" background, first hand psychology of each game, opening theory as it evolves from game to game, and usually just the right amount and the right type of analysis. More "education of a young Garry," both in chess (coach Nikitin, mentor Botvinnik) and in chess politics (aborted, and then reinstated, Candidates' Match with Vik tor Korchnoi) leads directly into a large chapter two, the first (unlimited) match. It starts with a brief "parallel lives style" history of both heroes, then presents an exciting game which the 12 year old author lost to the world champion in a clock simul, and three "reconnaissance in force" draws from the year 1981. The book (hardcover, $45, 424 pages, translation from Russian by Ken Neat) is very well designed, and manufac tured to last for a long time. Karpov, 1975 1985, is a logical continuation of The Predeces sors. His writing moved to an even higher plateau with the My Great Predecessors series, a project remarkable both for its scope and its high quality.

Like many other world champions, Garry Kasparov always has been a pro lific, and deservingly popular, chess writer. A few days later, the New York Times editorialized "it matters when a country formerly accused of noncompliance with arms treaties is credibly charged with fudging even the clear rules of international chess." The Politburo wasn't amused. The first Karpov-Kasparov match was terminated on February 15, 1985.
