Kasparov Defeats the Scheveningen Part II

Submitted by KillaBeez on Thu, 06/25/2009 at 9:43am.

Yesterday, I tried to post a game between Kasparov and Anand. Kasparov won fairly quickly thanks to a big kingside initiative. However, when I hit the save and preview button, my internet froze and I was unable to post it. So technically, this is part 3 in the series. For anyone who wants to see the game between Kasparov and Anand, look up Kasparov winning as white in the Scheveningen. Okay, so here is a game between Kasparov and Polugaevsky. The game starts with an aggressive Keres Attack and then quiets down into an ending.

Kasparov is a great expert in this opening, he played it with black a lot (from the najdorf move order)

khpa21: d6, Nc6, and e6 are all playable in that position. After e6, White doesn't play e5 because of Qa5+

Percyval: I will do as you requested tommorrow. So it will be Kasparov defeats the Scheveningen Part III. Then I will do a 3 part series on Kasparov playing the Scheveningen.
