On the other hand, Game 16 in is perhaps the greatest game played by anybody in any context. Now that's the stuff: Kasparov After the inaccuracies Bc5 which gave Karpov the opportunity, missed, to remove the black knight on b4 and O-O, Kasparov was essentially perfect. Kasparov's other win vs. Karpov is on this list due to circumstance.

Lasker probably needed to beat Schlechter in game 10 to keep his title historians are unsure , but Kasparov definitely did. The first world championship match between two Soviets to take place entirely outside of the Soviet Union Seville, Spain, after the match was split between in London and Leningrad had ended in a most dramatic fashion.

Kasparov Under the circumstances, the pure pressure that both sides felt—this game is pretty much literally the farthest thing chess has from a random 1 0 bullet game—not the worst, actually. Kasparov knew what the problem was, too, recounting his main error move 33 in How Life Imitates Chess from Those pesky arbiters? Lost in thought, I was startled by a tap on my shoulder.

The Dutch arbiter leaned over and said, "Mr. Kasparov, you have to write the moves. The arbiter was of course correct to remind me of the regulations, but what a moment to be strict!

Distracted, I played my queen to the wrong square. I missed a subtlety and failed to see why a different move with the same idea would have been stronger. My move gave Karpov a clever defense, and suddenly he was one move from reclaiming his title. But under pressure from the clock, he missed the best move though our exchange of errors would not be discovered until well after the game , and the momentum was still with me.

Are three Kasparov games too many? Well, this game features some ridiculous opening preparation from Kasparov: He played his first 21 moves in less than five minutes, while the usually quick GM Viswanathan Anand needed most of his time. It was also an important game in the match: After eight draws, Anand had just taken the lead in game nine, only for Kasparov to cruelly snatch it away, then win games 11, 13, and 14 as well while never losing again.

Turned around by one piece of opening prep. Kasparov's opponent five years later, who worked with him in this match, GM Vladimir Kramnik , knew not to play this variation of the Ruy Lopez against him.

As with Petrosian-Spassky, the computer's assignments of!! Like the Kasparov-Karpov game, Kramnik was a draw away from losing his title. Kramnik responded with a positional masterpiece, gradually accumulating advantages all over the board.

A situation like this may never happen again. It was the last world championship match to date that did not have a rapid tiebreak provision, and it's hard to imagine a future circumstance where that might be reverted. Kramnik Instructively, the computer isn't the biggest fan of several of GM Peter Leko 's exchanges: Bxc5, Nxd4, and Needing only a draw to become world champion, it's understandable that Leko would be anxious to exchange, but the ones he went for tended to help Kramnik's position.

Nf4, aiming for another exchange, is the losing blunder by allowing The Catalan is supposed to be a long-term, positional opening. Anand says never mind all that and crushes GM Veselin Topalov 's king.

Anand went up with this game and although Topalov came back to tie the match in game eight, Anand won the 12th and final game to take the match. It closed the book on a long road for Anand to solidify his claim to the title—he had to win a tournament in to become champion, then in beat Kramnik who lost his title without a match, then in beat Topalov who lost his spot in the tournament by losing to Kramnik.

Anand The losing move is given as Rad8, which gets no negative marking in the Mammoth Book although the computer's favorite move,
