This Week's ChessBase Show: A Quadruple Header!
Looking at just one game a week is well and good, but more games are better. Therefore, we'll feature a whole series of games, featuring such greats as Fischer, Karpov, Kasparov and Kramnik. What an array!
We'll start with game 12 of the 1961 Fischer-Reshevsky match, and then we'll move on to game 2 of Fischer's amazing 1972 match with Spassky. (I might even throw in bonus coverage of Fischer's last-round win over Panno from the 1970 Interzonal!)
That's just for starters, though. Next up is game 49 from the first Karpov-Kasparov match. Karpov was just one win away from keeping his title, while Kasparov had won the last two games. What would happen next??
Finally, we'll recap Friday's incredible game five from the Kramnik-Topalov match. This is MUST-SEE chess at its finest.
Afterwards, we'll find something else to do for the remaining 55+ minutes.
(Stay tuned for the real blurb later tonight or early tomorrow.)

I find the prospect of Kramnik winning the match even with a forfeit (as Fischer) very satisfying.
