  • I found it when i paused it :D

  • that's not the greatest game ever played but to me "the most incredible game ever played"!

    The greatest game ever cannot exist.....

  • Byrne vs Fischer is better game 

  • i saw all the moves it is easy when u say there is a move but it is hard to find it out by your self thanx

  • i swear i saw it 

  • at :32

  • I favorited when you began saying, supa grand masta.

  • you are right, black is better. he saves the game with 24...Kb6. But is blacks superiority enough to win? And Mato, this game is not the best game ever, far from it. It is a faulty game, which Kasparov won only because Topalov didnt find the defensive move that Qefes found. If he did he might even have won the game. If you win because your opponent blundered in a faulty sacrifice, that removes the game from the best games list.
