Hi Sergei, Each volume of Informator (books & electronic download) contains the best 700 (approx) games of the 4 or 6 month period, as chosen by an extremely expert panel. All games are very-in-depth analysed either by the players themselves or by other Grandmasters. Just about every game that Kasparov plays is included in each volume of informator, as are most games by the elite players. Unfortunately I can't copy and paste from the "Informator Reader" to show people here the extent of the analysis, but I have sent a screen shot, from a Kasparov-Short game (the first Kasp game I found) to You by EMail. The Informator Reader is a free Download, it needs to be registered and that is free as well. When I got it (a year or so ago) it came with "the best 500 games of all Informators". I don't know if that is still included in the free download. I personally think that Informators are the best way to study openings. IMO better even than the Encyclopedias of Chess openings, as the games in each volume are completely up to date, and the grandmasters themselves are providing the analysis. When it comes to the moves of Kasparov, I would much rather see the analysis of Kasparov or Short than that of Fritz or Junior. I realise you are looking only for Kasparov games, but I suggest that the games of Kramnik, Anand, et. al. are worth a look as well. From my point of view the games of anybody rated over 2700 are equally as valuable as Kasparov games. Regards, Tina Long
