  • This game is Poetry in Motion.

  • That is one brilliant game by Ivanchuk. I have never seen Kasparov so amazingly outplayed. Such an innovative opening idea, and to my mind forcing a re-enactment of the Knight v Bishop argument.

  • "Kasparov completely obliterated!" Lmfao!!!!

  • Great game! I really enjoy your commentary, and I've subscribed.

    Also, it wasn't quite mate yet; there was ...Bh6 and then Rxh6#.

  • @streakvs it's Gazza n his two shell accounts xD

  • what is the name of the player presenting this?

  • im sure that the one who disliked this video didnt understand the video at all...

  • @kingschrusher This could be the Scandinavian Attack.

  • 7:40 -- Seeing all of Kasparov's pieces squeezed into a corner reminds me of the Karpov vs. Kasparov game at Linares in 1993, where Kasparov forced all of Karpov's pieces onto the first rank.

  • absolute insanity

  • Ivanchuk's play in this game is nothing short of magical.

  • Great game by Ivanchuk, great comment as usual

  • @gildischnack Hence the mate in 3: third move being Rxh6

  • Awesome strategy by Ivanchuk. Kas didn't stand a chance in this one.

  • Outrageous but effective play by Ivanchuk, what the ?!?!

  • Amazing!

  • omg!!! kasparov didnt even got lubbed first!!

  • Great commentary and analysis. Fun to see this game. 

  • This is one of the most crazily beautiful encounters around :). Go knights!

  • WOW!

  • that actually not mate in the end

    kasparov can still put his bishop on h6 :P

  • This couldn't have been Kasparov playing black. I bet some guy kidnapped the real Kasparov, hid him in a closet, then proceeded to play this game for him. The real Kasparov is too brilliant to lose.

    Except against Deep Blue.

  • 'obliterated' is absolutely the correct term. Kasparov was totally humiliatd by the brilliant Ivanchuk.

  • I would love to see a highlight of this match, especially kasparov's reaction when his queen was forced to h8
