I can picture Gary wearing his watch and Anand having no choice but to resign. For those that don't know, Gary had a couple of flag moves that meant that he was winning and resignation was imminent. There is a funny anecdote where a strong GM (I forget his name) was completely demolished by Gary in an otherwise equal position and in the press conference the GM said that Gary made one of his usual moves that signified that he was winning. The GM was so demoralised that he lost his position soon after. Seemed like an excuse to me, but it could very well be true. Don't forget that Gary was like a god back then, he had something like 100 points distance from the second best and more than 150 from the 3rd. Practically speaking he was winning all the time with white and had some draws with black. Total monster.
The retreat of the bishop (e7) is the start of all jamming calamities black consequently has to go through. The garotte was closed and every next move was a turn of the screw to intensify the choke. [Technically the garotte chokes and impales (with a thorn which is forced into the back of the head/ neck).]
This game I believe was more about their upcoming world championship match in that it forced Anand to spend many hours of time preparing for this opening which Garry never actually then used in the match .
I think Anand probably didn't spend that much time on it. It was more about not giving any information away. Also testing how comfortable Anand was in positions defending pawn(s) up vs compensation
I think Gary is responsible for influencing more chess players opening choices than any other player in the history of the game. Think of all the gambits played after this one. :)
Kasparov was always a good player but it cannot be overstressed that he usually had a great team behind him. He won so many games mainly through opening preparation. Kramnik was one of his helpers and knew exactly what to do when they faced off.
Kasparov spoke about that, saying that he was at his absolute prime when that match was played, but still, Kramnik and his team found some weaknesses in his game (Berlin).

If only we could have peak Carlsen v peak Kasparov. If would have been a match for the ages!
Wonderful DK and I will be trying Kagi this week
Garry was a monster, Vishy was not yet the tiger from Madras. Thanks Daniel.
Excellent analysis.
That thumbnail is just class
I know this game by memory, one of only a few I know. I play the Evans whenever I can and run into this line (..ed, Qxd4) from time to time,
Wonderful! Wat a game! Merci
Thank you for featuring this game! I've gone over it a few times already but learned much from your commentary.
More Garry!!

First. When I was even younger I used to play the Evans! 🙂
Nice video and game at 1.5x speed.
Very good video. But the thumbnail picture?
could we have a photo of Kasparov and Anand in 1995?
And after Kasparov's next move, Vishy slammed his fist down onto the table, stood up and exclaimed, "WTF Garry! You can't move the rook diagonally!"
Garry the greatest of all time, even Magnus acknowledges that !
Anand and Garry are equally great
Hello, Mr Daniel King GM,...why some top players are very rarely playing e4 like Aronian?
Honestly i paused and after few seconds , i presumed it must have been Rac1 , followed by Nxe6 then Bc4 ! winning in all variations .
After ... Nxe5, what happens if Bg7?
I think Gary is responsible for influencing more chess players opening choices than any other player in the history of the game. Think of all the gambits played after this one. :)
I think Kramnik has that title by a mile.
Agadmator should run here to watch this masterpiece.
And also get a glimpse of the game.
😉
8:58 Why Nc3 and not Bg7 with a double threat B:h8 and B:e5?
Black has Bh4 after Whites Bg7
I found Re1 , ....because you told me the winning move existed
Hate to criticise a former world champion and a great of the game but Anand’s play in the opening was very weak.
🙏🙏🙏
Kasparov was always a good player but it cannot be overstressed that he usually had a great team behind him.
He won so many games mainly through opening preparation.
Kramnik was one of his helpers and knew exactly what to do when they faced off.
Kasparov a good player?
He was more than good; he ate good players.
Karpov had all KGB behind him (ask Korchnoi), still he couldn't beat Kasparov.
yea its never the opponents fault for entering sharp battles where they can be tricked
Kasparov spoke about that, saying that he was at his absolute prime when that match was played, but still, Kramnik and his team found some weaknesses in his game (Berlin).
„A good player“? Ridiculous. Kasparov is one of the best players ever.
I found Re1
Garry never had good opinion about anand so does entire chess circle his indian background is also responsible for that
