White: Terence Chapman
Black: Garry Kasparov
Charity Odds Match, London 2001, Game 3
(Remove Black's a- and b-pawns)
1 e4 Bb7 2 d3 e6 3 Nf3 d6 4 g3!
Another good choice of opening by Chapman; this King's Indian Attack formation ensures a very solid position and a safe king.
4...g6 5 Bg2 Bg7 6 0-0 Ne7 7 Nc3 0-0 8 Be3 h6 9 h4 Nd7 10 Qd2 Kh7 11 Rfe1 Qc8
White is going to have to work hard to win this position - the two extra pawns on the queenside are not really making a big difference at the moment.
12 a4 f5 13 Nd4 Nf6?
Kasparov called this a fatal move. Later on he claimed that Black has real chances for an attack in this position with the superior 13...Ne5!. For example, 14 exf5? Nxf5!? (or 14...Bxg2!? 15 fxg6+ N7xg6 16 Kxg2 c5 and Black has definite compensation) 15 Nxe6 Bxg2! 16 Nxf8+ Bxf8 17 Kxg2 Nxh4+ 18 Kf1 (or 18 gxh4 Qg4+ 19 Kf1 Qh3+ 20 Ke2 Qg4+ 21 Kf1 Nf3) 18...Qh3+ 19 Ke2 Qg4+ 20 Kf1 and now Black can take a draw or play on with 20...Nef3 21 Qd1 Nh2+ 22 Kg1 Qh3 23 gxh4 Nf3+ 24 Qxf3 Qxf3.
14 exf5!
Winning another pawn.
14...Bxg2 15 fxg6+ Nxg6 16 Kxg2 c5 17 Nde2 d5
17...Ne5 18 Ng1! protects the weak light squares around the king.
18 h5 Ne5 19 d4!
Kasparov admitted later that he had missed this move, which opens up the opportunity of Qd3+.
19...Neg4 20 Qd3+ Kg8 21 Qg6?!
White has to play accurately after this move. 21 Nf4! (Kasparov) is simpler.
21...e5! 22 Bxh6!
Cool play. Chapman sacrifices a piece for two pawns. Not, however, 22 dxe5?? Nxe5, after which White's queen is trapped.
22...Nxh6 23 dxe5 Nd7
Or 23...Ra6 24 Nf4 Ne4 25 Ncxd5 Rxf4 26 Ne7+ Kf8 27 Nxc8 Rxg6 28 hxg6 Rxf2+ 29 Kg1 and White is winning - Kasparov.
24 Nf4 Rxf4
Kasparov's only chance is to create some confusion by sacrificing.
25 gxf4 Nf8 26 Qg3 Nf5 27 Qh3 Qe6 28 Nb5 Rd8 29 a5!
Now the a-pawn plays a vital role. Kasparov is running out of cheapos.
29...Qf7 30 a6 Ne6 31 Kg1 Nxf4 32 Qg4 Nh6 33 Qh4 Kh7 34 a7 Rg8 35 a8Q Bxe5+ 36 Kf1 Rg4 37 Qxg4! 1-0
Following 37...Nxg4 38 Ra7! Nh2+ 39 Kg1 Nf3+ 40 Kh1 Black has no more spite checks.
