Ivanchuk - Kasparov, Linares 1991 White to move and win

in #chess2 years ago

The Linares tournament was one of the strongest annual tournaments before it was cancelled in 2011. In 1991, the event was won by Vassily Ivanchuk by a score of 9.5 and also beating second place Garry Kasparov in the first round.

Incidentally, the game between Ivanchuk and Kasparov won the beauty prize.

In the position below, White wins with a mate in 3. It's incredible that the Garry was playing black here as the pieces look miserable especially the Queen on h8 while his King is being mated.
