4. c2-c4 Full Game Score ... Previous Move ... Next Move |
This is the Panov-Botvinnik variation popularized by a former World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik. White's idea is to put pressure on d5. This was played successfully by Kamsky against Karpov at Monaco, 1994 and also in game two of this match. |
