A Trip in the Way-Back Machine: Kasparov-Speelman, London 1989
Monday, July 16, 2012 at 5:30PM
A post-mortem in two parts, between Garry Kasparov and Jonathan Speelman, after a rapid game played in London in 1989. (Part 1 is here, part 2 here.) It's an interesting, somewhat weird game (characteristic of a lot of Speelman's games!), and fun to have a look back to when Kasparov was on top and Speelman - a two-time Candidate and #4 in the world at the start of the year - was playing some of his best chess as well.
