Studying annotated games is indeed one way of improving one's chess. Starting today, this blog will feature annotated games of foreign and local players, which I hope will improve our chess skills somehow.
The best way to learn is to begin right from the start. And so, let's start with an explosive game that can make us fall in love with chess more and more.
The following game was annotated by no less than GM Kasparov himself. How I love this game!! (NOTE: Game and annotation were sourced from GameKnot.com. You need to have JAVA installed in your computer to view the game).
