both players were forced to play for a win. That's why the choice of 1...c5

well known and analyzed in detail nowadays.} 2. d3 {This may be the only side

Schwierigkeiten mit der Hitze nicht spielen konnte. Nach etwas eigenwilliger
Eröffnungsbehandlung entsteht eine königsindische Verteidigung mit

diesen Bauern gewinnen kann, entfaltet Kavalek eine starke Initiative im
Zentrum, die ihm ohne Zweifel den Ausgleich sichert.} 1. e4 c5 2. Ne2 d6 3. g3

1. e4 c5 2. b3 h5 $6 $146 {In the absence of a target on g3, this is an absurd
move. Black's play in the first part of the game has some abstract coherence,

very low priority.} 3. Bb2 Nc6 4. Nf3 d5 5. exd5 Qxd5 6. Nc3 Qd8 7. Bb5 {
It is quite common in the b3-system that White develops his other bishop to b5.
Apart from the threat of spoiling the enemy structure, Black's control over
the e5- and d4-squares is weakened, thus adding strength to the b2-bishop.} Rh6

unfortunately.} 11. Ne4 f6 12. Nc4 h4 $6 {Black keeps playing an original game.
After cutting off the 6th rank, he opens some new horizons for the rook. Still,

looks like overdoing things already, but maybe it is too late for a good piece

by Rd3 and Nd6+, with a probably decissive attack at no cost.}) 14. f4 {
The position falls apart now. Twelve moves have passed since the novelty and
only one piece (the king's rook) is on another square than the initial one.
But maybe this cannot even be considered a developing move. I would prefer
having it back on h8 in order to remain three tempi away from castling 
(although this may remain purely utopic).} b5 15. fxe5 $5 ({Tempting and not

1. e4 {Aravindh is famed in the Indian chess circuits for his unorthodox
openings. But against the World Champion he decides to play it safe with 1.e4.}
c5 2. b3 $5 {Well, so much for the well trodden paths! The 16-year-old had
beaten Alexei Shirov with 1.b3 a year ago. This time he tries to catch a
bigger fish with that move but of course 1.e4 c5 2.b3 is quite different from
1.b3.} g6 $5 {After the game I had an opportunity to do an interview with
Magnus Carlsen. He said that he had considered playing this line with White
but did not like this 2...g6 move. And hence he played it with Black. This is
the same line recommended by Peter Heine Nielsen in his book "Experts against
the Anti-Sicilians."} 3. Bb2 Nf6 4. e5 Nd5 {Here Aravindh sank into deep
thought. He was of course out of theory and wanted to clarify the position as
much as he could. There is a chance that the e5-pawn will become weak and
hence he decides to advance the pawn.} 5. e6 $6 (5. d4 Qa5+ 6. Qd2 Qxd2+ 7.

think Black has absolutely no problems in this position as well.}) (5. Bc4 Nb6
6. e6 f6 7. exd7+ Bxd7 $15) 5... f6 $1 {Of course this is forced and the move
f6 looks pretty unusual but the point is that White is going to take on d7 and
that would mean that all his moves with the e-pawn have been sort of wasted.}
6. exd7+ Qxd7 {The e-pawn has made four moves and exchanged itself for the d7
pawn which hadn't moved even once in the game.} 7. Nc3 Nc6 8. Bb5 Nc7 9. Bxc6
Qxc6 $15 {Black already has the bishop pair and the possibility to establish a
strong centre with e5. He is clearly better. One would assume that the World
Champion would win quite easily from this point onwards. After all it is not
every day that you get a good solid edge as Black after just nine moves
against a grandmaster. But the 16-year-old Aravindh doesn't give up easily.}

steadily builds up his position. White has nothing much that he can do than to
wait and hope for the opponent to go wrong. The last move a5 although not bad
was not really necessary. The pawn could have been more useful on a6 to defend
the b5-pawn.} 18. Ne3 Bd6 $6 {Magnus played his B to d6 in order to defend his
e5-pawn and prepare f5. The problem with this move is that the bishop is a
little exposed on d6 and can be hit in the future with the moves Nc4 or Ne4.} (

taken because of Rxf4. Isn't it surprising that from a completely better
position, Carlsen drifted into a worse position in a matter of ten moves. As
Magnus said after the game, all that was left now was to try and trick his
opponent before the 40th move as the Indian was under grave time pressure.} Ke6
