Tournament: Moscow Round: Opening: Submitted by: Published on: February 9, 2020 [Event "Moscow"] [Site "?"] [Date "1982.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "Kasparov"] [Black "Murey"] [Result "1-0"] [PlyCount "51"] 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 b6 4.Nc3 Bb7 5.a3 {The Petrosian system of the Queen's Indian Defense has brought me many victories.} d5 6.cxd5 Nxd5 {A continuation which has been becoming more popular recently. It is difficult to explain why Black should give up the center without a fight, but perhaps good practical results are the reason why.} 7.Qc2 {At the time of this game this was a new twist to the position. White had usually played 7.e3. The idea of 7.Qc2 is to play e4 in one move instead of two.} c5 8.e4 Nxc3 9.bxc3 Nc6 10.Bb2 {Simple and strong! The pawn is well protected and the rook is ready to occupy the d1 square.} Rc8 {Natural but bad. Black will not be able to take advantage of the position of the White queen, while the loss of a tempo will cost him dearly. It was necessary to play 10...Be7, preparing to castle.} 11.Rd1 cxd4 12.cxd4 a6 {Played to keep White's bishop off the a4-e8 diagonal. 12...Nxd4 allows White to win material. 12... Ne5, trying to take advantage of White's queen being on the c-file, would backfire after...13.Bb5+ Bc6 when White can win material.} 13.Qd2 {Now the cou nterchances connected with the pressure on the c-file are prevented and the d-pawn threatens to advance to d7. In order to thwart d5 Black would have to play Ne7, but what sort of position is that?} Na5 {Understanding that the strategic struggle has been lost, Black is trying to find some tactical resources, but in vain - chess justice is on White's side.} 14.d5 exd5 {14...Nc4 15.Bxc4 Rxc4 16.O-O is much better for White because of his lead in development.} 15.exd5 Bd6 {15...Qe7+ 16.Be2 Nc4 17.d6 Nxd6 18.O-O is winning for White since Black's king is stuck in the center.} 16.Bxg7 Qe7+ 17.Be2 Rg8 18.Qh6 {Now the main drawback of the Black position is visible. His pieces cannot join in the fight quickly, and his king is left to defend himself.} f5 19.Bf6 Qf8 20.Qxh7 Qf7 {20...Rxg2 21.Ne5 With the deadly threat of 22.Bh5+ is winning for White.} 21.Qxf5 {The rest is a matter of artistic interpretation.} Rg6 22.Qe4+ Kf8 23.Ng5 Rxg5 24.Bxg5 Re8 25.Bh6+ Kg8 26.Qg4+ {Black resigned because of his material deficit.} 1-0 [Event "Moscow"] [Site "?"] [Date "1982.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "Kasparov"] [Black "Murey"] [Result "1-0"] [PlyCount "51"] 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 b6 4.Nc3 Bb7 5.a3 {The Petrosian system of the Queen's Indian Defense has brought me many victories.} d5 6.cxd5 Nxd5 {A continuation which has been becoming more popular recently.
