  1. black, very inconsistent play. typical of the crowd mentality, can't agree on anything.

    I still am able to follow the game, but no video or audio commentary...

  2. the relay works fine on ICC but can't vote there.

    the audio/video went dead for me on G-STAR. maybe the main lesson from this game is that the level of incompetence in programming websites is still way too high decades after Al Gore invented the Internet

    Kasparov says black is toast.

    Well, there are two lessons:

    1) Follow theory
    2) If you have to make a move like ...Qd8, you shouldn't be playing in this manner

    Black needs to create chaos, or it is curtains.

    I have been thinking about the theory of how to play such an event and how it should affect the world's voting patterns.

    A couple of things come to mind:

    1) Out of the opening, follow the highest rated player. Forget everything else.
    2) Once you are out of opening, follow the most dynamic move.

    LMAO

    Kasparov is losing hair over this game. He is disgusted with the black position, as would any self-respecting chess player.

    If black allows the closing of the K-Side after Bf2, black is gone in ten moves.
