ANGOL MEGNYITÁS
1. c4 c5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. g3 d5 {We have the English opening, one of
Kasparov's old loves. He's
decided to give up on beating the Berlin defense finally! Kasparov
will give
his analysts another few days to work on the berlin and move to Plan B
here.
His results with 1.c4 were always very good. Kasparov is one of few
top GMs
who can open with just about any first move. His best results have
been with 1.
d4 historically, but he's largely switched to e4 in recent years 4.d4
here is
the consensus of the experts. After my bad day of predictions
yesterday maybe
I shouldn't suggest anything! First I said game 4 would be a grunfeld
and was
wrong on move 1 then i said it would be a quick draw and it turned
into one of
the most exciting games on record! So here I think Kasparov will move
either a
pawn or a piece. Can't miss there Kramnik, of course, is an expert in
the
English variations with white. He opens a majority of his games with
1.Nf3.} 4.
cxd5 Nxd5 5. Bg2 Nc6 6. Nc3 g6 {Usually these positions involve a lot
of
complex maneuvering and less concrete analysis than what we've seen so
far in
the match openings. Of course that isn't to say this is a new
position! In
modern chess it's hard to leave the books before move 15!} 7. O-O Bg7
8. Qa4
Nb6 {It's been a long time since Garry has played the English opening
in
classical play. He still plays it in exhibitions and blitz, but I
don't think
he has played it in a serious game since against Deep Blue! On the
other hand,
he has played it in blitz against Kramnik on five occasions in the
past two
years. But in all of those games Kasparov played d4 very early,
something he's
not doing here.} 9. Qb5 {Interesting choice, and we're already in a
rather
rare position! As I said, the English isn't as deeply analyzed as most
1.e4
and 1.d4 openings. The logical move now is to advance the c-pawn so
the white
queen doesn't snack on it.} 9... Nd7 {Interesting! A new move in this
position,
protecting the c-pawn in a different way. That knight has taken quite
a trip
across the board. Maybe it'll head back to f6 someday?} 10. d3 {If
this game
gets drawn out we'll see who has recovered better from last night's
brutal
marathon} 10... O-O 11. Be3 {Continuing the assault on the c5 pawn.
Black
can't defend with ...b6 because then the knight on c6 would be lost.
So moving
the knight to d4 is about the only way to protect the pawn. We've now
transposed back to a known position, although the four games I find in
the
ChessBase MegaBase are rather obscure! In general this line looks
quite
attractive for white. Nd4 is the obvious move. Something like 11...a6
looks
too risky for black. After the game all this commentary is available
for
download, by the way. So if you go off for a snack and miss some
golden words,
you can relive the live experience at your leisure. :-) Of course our
post-game analysis is what you want if you're looking for serious
truth. Team
Kramnik's analysis of game four was amazing, if you haven't seen it
yet! Very
honest about all the mistakes at the end. Now Kasparov is definitely
looking
to even the score. The momentum has moved to him. I think Kasparov has
forgotten what it's like to play a match against an equal, to be
honest. Now
he's remembering! The 93 short match was over after four games, Anand
collapsed in the middle of the 95 match. Kasparov's last real
dogfights were
against Karpov. Now here's Kramnik with a style similar to Karpov's
and 12
years younger than Kasparov himself. So after Nd4 here by black,
Kasparov can
take with his bishop and then plant his c3 knight on the powerful
central
square e4 Kramnik can't be too happy with this position. He's going to
have
weaknesses no matter what. If a black pawn ends up on d4 his g7 bishop
won't
be doing much.} 11... Nd4 12. Bxd4 cxd4 13. Ne4 {The expected
continuation.
Still two games in the database with this position, but not from very
strong
players. GM Shipov is recommending ...Qb6, previous games went ...Nb6
instead.}
13... Qb6 {Kramnik figures that without queens on there will be fewer
chances
to lose. A practical philosophy that he has followed in every game
with black
so far in the match.} 14. a4 {Of course if Kasparov doesn't trade
queen he can
go to c4 to attack the d4 pawn. Hmm, unexpected! Again in this match
Kasparov voluntarily destroys his pawn structure for activity. So far
this has not been a successful policy. Kramnik is just too solid a
defender and the weaknesses
in Kasparov's positions have come back to haunt him several times. If
Kramnik
takes, he'll have some trouble protecting the a6 pawn. sorry, a7 pawn
Of
course Kramnik isn't forced to take here. He can just develop his
pieces.
Kramnik's taking a long think here. He needs to find a long-term plan
here. In
many positions, and this is certainly one, concrete calculation of
variations
is not nearly as important as finding a long-term plan for your
pieces.
Kramnik has to worry about the potentially weak d4 pawn and rook
invasions on
the a and c files} 14... a6 {Computer here don't help to much.
Long-term
weaknesses don't usually mean too much to them. Aha! Kramnik decides
to force
the issue intead of deciding on a plan now. Again kasparov can swap or
keep
the ladies on with Qc4 I'm a fan of keeping the queens on. Just about
every
game so far has seen the queens come off very early and all the
excitement has
been saved for the endgame! If Kasparov dodges with Qc4 Kramnik can't
take the
b2 pawn without getting his queen trapped with Rfb1 and Ra2. There's a
crazy
computer line that shows black can get a few pieces for his queen in
that line,
but I don't think Kramnik is eager to sacrifice his queen just yet!
We're
doing post-game audio reports from London in cooperation with Real
Networks.
Check the WC index page for the link. These two really like to think.
it looks
like we'll have yet another time-trouble game.} 15. Qxb6 {All that
thinking to
trade queens! But after yesterday's wild affair, it's clear that
queenless
games can be quite exciting as well.} 15... Nxb6 16. a5 Nd5 {Now both
sides
have strong knights in the middle of the board, the perfect place for
knights.
But Kasparov will be first to take control of the only open file, the
c-file.
And the g2 bishop has a better future than the one on g7.} 17. Nc5 Rd8
{
Kasparov moves his knight to an even more dominating position, homing
in on
the backward pawn on b7. Could he be planning something as simple as
Ra4-a3-b3
to hit it again?} 18. Nd2 {Now all of Kasparov's pieces are becoming
active
and white uncovers the secret weapon: the bishop on g2! The knight can
head to c4, threating to win immediately with Bxd4 then Nb6 forking
the rooks.} 18...
Rb8 {Ronen! Okay, eveyrone around the world wish him a happy birthday.
Now get to work!! :-)} 19. Nc4 e6 {The always entertaining (and
usually correct!) GM Har-Zvi will be giving more advanced commentary
in English if you would like
to add his commentary channel now.} 20. Rfc1 Bh6 21. Rcb1 Bf8 22. Nb3
{
Sorry, some confusion behind the scenes here in London. This is Mig in
London
at the match, commenting live. We also have GM Ronen Har Zvi
commenting in English, and Errol Dickl in German, IM Nicolas Giffard
in French, and GM
Shipov in Russian! And Deep Junior in the universal language of
variations.
The maneuvering battle continues. Kramnik has activated his
dark-squared
bishop and Kasparov is putting pressure on the d4 pawn. Trying to
break free
with ...b5 would backfire because after taking en passant, Kasparov
would have the tasty a5 square foraknight} 22... Bg7 {So Kramnik after
thinking for 20 minutes puts his bishop back home on g7. I'm going
down to the stage to remind
Kramnik that he can move his other pieces too. This is the type of
position
Kramnik has been defending well all week. No active plan for black,
but white
can't get through. I thought Kasparov was going to play that knight
back to a4
in order to double up on the b6 square, I suppose he could still do
that.} 23.
Bxd5 {Deep Junior's move! Maybe Garry has been spending too much time
with his computer. Black is now deprived of his only active piece, but
Kramnik won't give up just yet. Kasparov still has to find a way to
attack the weaknesses in Black's position. But now White can advance
the b-pawn without worrying about the knight dropping into c3} 23...
Rxd5 {Nbd2 looks like a logical
continuation. Or Rc1. White's knights are superior to Kramnik's
bishops right
now, but Kasparov has to find a way to capitalize. After Nb6 Rb5 Nd2
the
knights start to creep up the board. GM Shipov is looking at Nb6 Rb5
Nd2 and
then e5, freeing the c8 bishop. Wake up, Garry! Is he looking at f4 to
prevent
e5? It's not common to have two long thinks in a row like this. He
spent a
long time on Bxd5 and I'm sure Kramnik's move didn't come as a
surprise! IM
Giffard points out f4 g5! Kasparov is getting down to "a move a
minute"
territory. The time control is at move 40, when both players get
another hour
on the clock.} 24. Nbd2 e5 {DRAW AGREED! OFFICIAL RESULT, DRAW GAME
OVER: 1/2-1/2 {Game drawn by mutual agreement}
