vs Kasparov

[edit]

Shirov still has never beaten Kasparov has he? RedWolf 22:24, Jun 4, 2004 (UTC)

Apparently not according to chessgames.com. The site lists 32 games between them and Kasparov is +15 =17 versus Shirov. RedWolf 17:52, Oct 3, 2004 (UTC)

sample game

[edit]

According to Deep Fritz and Rybka, Shirnov already had a won game before 47... Bh3. The evaluation after that move isn't much different. They also say that 50. Bxf6 was a bad move. But I'm not going to change this in the article. Bubba73 (talk), 16:55, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Engines would have to run for a long long time to recognise such complex strategic subtleties, especially in an endgame position with opposite coloured bishops. Karsten Muller says in his study that 47... Bh3!! is in fact the only winning move. [1] --Cammacleay (talk) 03:44, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

47... Bh3!!! ought to have its own article, its so amazing. Bzweebl (talkcontribs) 02:54, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
