The 12th Annual Linares Super Tournament held from February 23rd to March 14th, 1994 was the first Category XVIII event ever held. Fourteen of the world's best players, including both World Champions, competed in a round robin format. The participants were (in order of Elo): Garry Kasparov (2805), Anatoli Karpov (2740), Alexey Shirov (2715), Vishwanathan Anand (2715), Vladimir Kramnik (2710), Vassily Ivanchuk (2710), Gata Kamsky (2695), Boris Gelfand (2685), Evgeny Bareev (2685), Alexander Beliavsky (2650), Veselin Topalov (2640), Judit Polgar (2630), Joel Lautier (2625), and Miguel Illescas-Cordoba (2590). When asked about the strength of the tournament, Kasparov famously stated that the winner could consider himself the world champion of tournament chess. Ironically, it was to be Karpov, his longtime rival, who would be the man of destiny, culminating in the greatest single tournament performance of all time! Karpov won the whole ball of wax, undefeated with an astonishing 11/13!!!

From wiki: Karpov's "boa constrictor"[25] playing style is solidly positional, taking no risks but reacting mercilessly to any tiny errors made by his opponents. As a result, he is often compared to his idol, the famous José Raúl Capablanca, the third World Champion. Karpov himself describes his style as follows: Let us say the game may be continued in two ways: one of them is a beautiful tactical blow that gives rise to variations that don't yield to precise calculations; the other is clear positional pressure that leads to an endgame with microscopic chances of victory.... I would choose [the latter] without thinking twice. If the opponent offers keen play I don't object; but in such cases I get less satisfaction, even if I win, than from a game conducted according to all the rules of strategy with its ruthless logic.[26]

@Ze TheGame Karpov would have an overall games winning record in his world championship matches v Kasparov if their first match has not been so ridiculously drawn out, favouring the younger man's stamina. Karpov was crushing him at 12 and 24 games. Their matches were very close and no-one else was up to their dominance. He gave Kasparov a wonderful extended education. A pity Fischer chickened out of playing him to defend his title, or he would surely have gained from that experience. He won this Linares tournament, the greatest ever assembled at that time, and including Kasparov, superbly- were none of his opponents masters of mid game? Karpov is clearly one of the very greatest players in chess history.

Alekhine in 1930 San Remo 3040! Over-rated Fischer and Kasparov had their Best tournament scores only about 2990!! Karpov was leading 5-0 after 27 games against Kasparov World champion match!! Bobby Fischer beat the weakest chess World champion Boris Spassky only 17 wins 11 losses! You can not lose 11 times against the blunder maker Spassky! Capablanca would beat Spassky easily 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Carlsen would beat Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses!! Carlsen is 100xtimes better than Spassky! Fischer beat Spassky in 1992 10 wins 15 draws 5 losses! Spassky was 158th World ranking in 1992 and Spassky rated 2558 in 1992! Fischer scored 58,33% score over Spassky in 1992!

OPEN LETTER TO ANTOLY YEVGENYEVICH KARPOV Dear Mr. Karpov, You and I met across the chess board in in 1994 Manasquan New Jersey at the office of Don Maddox, where we played two games at the end of a blitz quad wherein each of had defeated both Mr. Maddox and a postal-chess champion named Paul. You first defeated me quite soundly as white, overwhelming my Pirc with something other than the Austrian Attack, and in our second game went as follows: 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Bc4 Ngf6 6. Nxf6+ draw My only other chess accomplishment is finishing second in the US Armed Forced chess tournament about a year later. When we shook hands that day, I conceived of chess as a metaphor for the ongoing political and martial strife between our two homelands, and though I did not realize this exact meaning at that moment, but I have, though meditation upon both our game and the game itself over time, come to understand that handshake as a offer of world peace. With this as my introduction, I issue you the following challenge: I, Douglas Ryan VanBenthuysen, challenge you, Anatoly Yevgenyevich Karpov, to a series of games of chess wherein we prearrange to play all games to a draw, and we do this in the name of world peace. I'm open to whatever venue you suggest, but my friend Ty's house on Leon Sierra in North Phoenix, Arizona is open for our games at any time. And, along with our match, join me in asking that all chess players for a year -- or at least a season -- resolve to play games to draws. Learn to find beauty in the game not in vanquishing the enemy, but in creating a beautiful position where both black and white coexist in some equilibrium. And, perhaps, if the collective mental energy of all of us is directed toward peace, peace on world will follow. At very least, we will confuse the engines. With deepest respect, Douglas Ryan VanBenthuysen PS: The match does not have to be between me and Karpov...any two chess players can execute this plan for peace. Just play for a draw. Delight an opponent with an "accidental" stalemate. End a game in confusion with a threefold repetition. Get creative with it!

@joaolucasbraga4642 5 лет назад

Topalov is a very agressive player. Maybe he has no patience for defending the whole game like Karjakin, for example. So when he gets under pressure he is probably more likely to miss the best defensive moves, which allows his oponents to launch a quickly and decisive attack. Kasparov is also a bit like this, he always seeks for the initiative, but Topalov is probably even more.

Positron 1. Kasparov due to longevity and complete dominance over the chess world and 2. Fischer, because although his dominance was short he put up performances that have never been seen in ‘70-‘72 and stripped the title from the Soviets. The Russians had teams of grandmasters to work with and Fischer only had himself and a few close friends. I will say that Karpov probably deserves to be tied at the #2 spot because his record against Kasparov was quite close and he was maybe the greatest positional player of all time, but I think Fischer and Kasparov had unmatched wills to win and stopped at nothing to crush their opponents with unsurpassed dominance.

@markmark8545 6 лет назад

been watching your game reviews the last week or so...subscribed today :) excellent content and explanations for the average club level wood pusher like myself. Love your reviews of Ivanchuk games especially...Chukky has been my favourite GM since the early 90's after I saw him relieve Kasparov of his (centrally placed ? ) queen in a game in the UK journal, Chess monthly. I am in my 50's now, and my memory has too many holes... :) I can't remember exactly the game or the tournament . It seems like Ivanchuk dwells in a separate universe to other GMs...often making such abstract moves....its such a shame he never managed to take the crown...why do you think he never became world champ?...in my opinion, it has to be something psychological , rather than technical.

Although you wrote this two years ago i want to give you my to cents. World champions play solid chess above all. The exception in modern times Tal. Didn't held it too long. He lost to. Botvinnik Ivanchuk play risky.

what a game

@Shockprowl 6 лет назад

Great game. I was hoping you'd do more Karpov, thank you Agadmator. I wish there was a book on Lineares 1994. You don't get books on modern tournaments these days (my copy of Alekhine- New York 1924 is resting by my chess set currently). Karpov is truely one of the greatest chess players of all time. Where would you put him, Agadmator? Third after Fischer and Kasparov?

@arkos1179 3 года назад

Definitely above Fischer. He has done a lot more than Fischer. The list would be Kaspy Karpov Magnus Capablanca Lasker Fischer Alekhine Botvinik Kramnik

@Shockprowl 3 года назад

@@arkos1179 Yeah pretty good list there, chum. It's obviously impossible to figure out the definitive list, but it's fun trying. I think Fischer should be a smidge higher due to his intuitive talent- but you're right, players like Karpov certainly did for more for chess than Fischer.

@kk_1212 5 лет назад

Worth mentioning that Topalov was still a teenager back then.

@mackenziezimmerer7926 4 года назад

Topalov missed a ginormous blunder by Karpov. Move #7 by black should have taken pawn forcing check. Then advancing knight to check then second knight or queen to b3 and the assult could have been been legendary

@dhanarputra555 5 лет назад

Karpov games in this channel is too small in quantity. Why? He plays correctly in almost his games.

@davidcopson5800 4 года назад

Perhaps because he is not usually an exciting player? Tal and Kasparov are far more dynamic; Ivanchuck and Shirov are more creative, Anand is more artistic. Karpov is super efficient - that's not always great theatre.

@thomasrebotier1741 5 лет назад

Can't believe Karpov survived the fall of the USSR, but he did! :)

@jaimeduncan6167 6 лет назад

masterpiece. Karpov was engineered to kill Fisher, I believe he may be able to do it. His positional game was so strong as to exasperate mixed players like Kasparov or Fisher.

@kasparov9 6 лет назад

haha, he may very well have beat Fischer in 1975.

@davidcopson5800 4 года назад

@Jaime Duncan: Fischer was an excellent positional and tactical player and could have matched Karpov at his best had he (Fischer) played at the strength of 1971/2. Kasparov clearly came out on top in his five titanic matches with Karpov, but it was close all the way. Masterpiece is one word.

@thorn35 4 года назад

Stockfish says Bobby was the 3rd most accurate player of all time and him and morphy had the best win percentages. Bobby had about a 60% chance every game to beat Karpov in 75, that is a pretty sizeable advantage. Heck, Karpov playing in interzonal of 73 had only a 2550 rating, bobbys was 2785 and took karpov years to get to the same level. Bobby also had more accuracy the Kasperov too. Factoring in their win percentages, morphy and bobby were the two greatest players of all time.

@isedairi 6 лет назад

One quick correction. Karpov made it to 6/6 before round 7, where he played Black vs Kasparov in a Caro-Kann and almost defeating him.

@agadmator 6 лет назад

+Ian Seda Irizarry I've been looking atr the rounds all wrong. On chessgames.com I checked Karpov's opponents from Lineares 1994 and I thought the opponents were sorted by rounds, it seems they weren't. My bad :)

@anouarben779 6 лет назад

Why Anatoly doesn't get the credit he deserves?? is it because of his style of play ?!!

@jessejordache1869 6 лет назад

I think it's politics, at least in the US. Through no fault of his own, he was the Soviet Chess Federation's boy, so the US press had all his opponents "courageously taking on the Soviet machine". The only thing missing from his game was stamina. He completely dominated the field in the 70s and 80s until Kasparov came along, and then they dominated the field together.

@andrewkoines6389 5 лет назад

Karpov is very well regarded and is usually put in the top 3 of all time on greatest chessplayers lists. Anyone who really follows chess knows how great he is.

@davidcopson5800 4 года назад

@@rogerfedererc5315 Not really. This is your subjective opinion as a Karpov fan. Karpov suffered because of his lost WC matches against Kasparov. By the way, you can't even spell your name correctly.
