Judit Polgar- Best Chess Game?

Sort:
KnightFighter22

I've been looking at the fantastic games of Judit Polgar, and I found an amazing chess game that she played against Nigel Short in the 1994 Chess Grand Prix. Not many people recognise this game- but it consisted of a king walk and one of the greatest turn arounds chess has ever seen. I have made a short chess video taking you guys through some of the awesome themes and tactics found in this game! Hope you all enjoy it!

yes, an unbelievable game as it seems Polgar is getting royally thrashed !  Almost seems a joke when she plays her K to c3 early on !   I was thinking this was a 5 minute game.

one option I see for Black is when his Queen was attacked with R-g2 to take the h3 pawn.    However, White will still gain a big initiative on the K-side with the g4 pawn taking the f5 pawn -- opens the g-file with the threat of Rxg7+ winning the Q.   Also takes control of Center.

thank you for posting this exciting game !

Yeah I found it very amazing- it was a fast game as it was played at Grand Prix, but it was really cool how Polgar turned it around none the less!
