Kasparov Vs. Speelman - 25 minutes away from the Final Pt.1

A great battle at the Infolink European Speed Chess Championship. This is the semifinal game between World Champion Garry Kasparov and British Grandmaster Jon Speelman. Speelman complicates matters with an interesting Leningrad Dutch Defense. Each of them only had 25 minutes to play. Both players analyze the game with Grandmaster Ray Keene.

    I was very lucky to be able to watch the game being played live. It was in the library of the Atheneum club in London's Pall Mall, and there were about 50 spectators. I had got in because I had seen GM Ray Keene's piece in The Times advertising the championship and I cheekily phoned up the organisers and asked if i could join the invited spectators. It was a great day!

    This is what the chess world needs. Top players discussing their games without computer analysis! Thank you!

    awesome material ... thank you for posting this! It demonstrates Kasparov's superiority ... and despite his arrogance, Speelman and the commentator are fully respectful about Kasparov's ideas and comments over the variations, even if he lost due to a huge blunder on move 45!

    It's absolutley incredible how they can remember every move of the game afterwards, as a beginner of chess I have difficulty recalling my last 5 moves nevermind the whole game!

    Speelman is wonderfully intelligent and self-deprecating. If you can get a copy of his best games collection, the games and analysis therein are well worth your time. Along with John Nunn a great British ambassador of chess. Nigel Short is better known since he remained a chess professional for longer and reached the final of the world chess championship, but the other British GMs of that era were all excellent.

    @SeedsofJoy That comes after a while - when you understand better what you and your opponent are doing during a game, you will probably remember the whole thing for a while afterwards. The game becomes more like a story and less a number of unrelated incidents

    GM Speelman is just too cool. I loved the way he destroyed Topa in the PCA speed matches in the mid 90's.
