59. Ra5-a6 Black Resigns |
White will play Kg5, Nf5, and even create a mating net against the Black king, so Karpov resigns. A good effort by Kamsky, which shows that he still has a great deal of fight left in him. He conducted the attack in the later stages of the game with great imagination and verve. Although the score is still heavily against him (3.5 - 6.5), this win shows that we still have a match! |
