🔸 Garry Kasparov
🔸 Russian chess grandmaster
🔸 Former world chess champion
♦️Garry Kimovich Kasparov is a Russian chess grandmaster, former world chess champion, writer, and political activist, who many consider to be the greatest chess player of all time.

♦️ FACEBOOK PAGE: https://www.facebook.com/GKKasparov/
♦️Did you know: Garry Kasparov ranks first in the world by months at FIDE number one (255).
♦️ Kasparov's ratings achievements include being rated world #1 according to Elo rating almost continuously from 1986 until his retirement in 2005. He was the world number-one ranked player for 255 months, a record that far outstrips all other previous and current number-one ranked players. Kasparov had the highest Elo rating in the world continuously from 1986 to 2005. However, Vladimir Kramnik equaled him in the January 1996 FIDE ratings list, technically supplanting him because he played more games. He was also briefly ejected from the list following his split from FIDE in 1993, but during that time he headed the rating list of the rival PCA. At the time of his retirement, he was still ranked #1 in the world, with a rating of 2812. In January 1990 Kasparov achieved the (then) highest FIDE rating ever, passing 2800 and breaking Bobby Fischer's old record of 2785. On the July 1999 and January 2000 FIDE rating lists Kasparov reached a 2851 Elo rating, which became the highest rating ever achieved until surpassed by Magnus Carlsen in 2013. There was a time in the early 1990s when Kasparov was over 2800 and the only person in the 2700s was Anatoly Karpov.

10...Nf8
A typical maneuver with the attacking idea ...Bf5, ...h7-h5, ...N8h7-g5 and so on.
However, 10...c6! was more natural – after reinforcing his e4-pawn by ...d6-d5, Black would have retained a solid and comfortable position.
11.Nc3 Bf5.

11.Nc3 Bf5.
13.Nd2!
A novelty from a 1977 game that was unknown to us. The grandmaster made the knight move with unconcealed pleasure – he 'had analyzed it a great deal and come to the conclusion that White should gain an advantage' (Alburt).
13...Red8
Only this rook! The e8-square must be free for the retreat of the knight.
14.Nb3?!
But a year later Uhlmann improved White's play by 14.Bf4! with the idea of 14...Nd4 (It is possible that 14...Qb6 is better, but this is a largely theoretical question since the variation with 12...Qa5 has almost gone out of use) 15.Nd5!, as in his games with Ghitescu, Peev (Bucharest 1979) and Sznapik (Berlin 1979).
**14...Qb6 15.Na4*8.
