I don't buy your explanation. But to be clear about it. I do not talk about
THROWING a game with the slightest regard to real tournament chess, but this
isn't tournament chess, excuse me.

I don't by it because he goes for it with f5, Qf6. He didn't play Qa1 a tempo.
So he had enough time to see the little combination. If you doubt that then you
something worse about Kasparov than I with my show event. Perhaps you don't know
but such combinations are so odd for a player like Kasparov! He sees it almost a
tempo. For sure!

BTW for the same reason I doubt that Kramnik lost his memory for chess when he
played Qc4.

It is for the show, believe me.

Therefore it's such a pity that comps don't go for the qualifying in tournament
chess. Then you could see Kasparov play. But that exactly seems to be the reason
why CC has no interest.
