Featured is the chess game between Vladimir Kramnik and Garry Kasparov from the 2000 Classical World Chess Championship Match. We enter a normal line of the Nimzo-Indian Defense which soon results in an isolated queen pawn position for Kramnik. A tactical shot soon lands on Kasparov’s sensitive e6 square. After the computer-like middlegame of forceful captures, we arrive at an endgame where Kramnik is up an imaginary pawn and structurally worse. Kramnik follows up the final phase dynamically, forcing Kasparov’s resignation after only 25 moves. Vladimir Kramnik’s play throughout was very direct, and it registered a 98% accuracy.

I'm a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
