Live footage from 1994 during the game of Anatoly Karpov vs Veselin Topalov. It´s called Karpov's Immortal cause he saced both Rooks to win in style. Karpov won the Linares tournament with 11 out of 13 points. 2.5 points ahead of Kasparov, the current World Champion at this time.

INCREDIBLE win by Stockfish+NNUE as black in the King's Indian Defense. 🤯

Don't miss the double rook sacrifice (31...Rxb7!! and 32...Rxa5!!) that could have lead to a spectacular queen sacrifice for checkmate. 👀
