This is a position extracted not from the match of Bahrain but from a rapid game played in Frankfurt in the year 2000 in which Kramnik managed to find the best resource of the posible choices. With the following sacrifice the russian wch shows that he's definitly an intuitive player (as he has defined his play more than once), and i agree with this since i personally don't belive any human can make such a move considering all posible continuations in such little time. The position is very complex and you can be proud if your engine finds this in less than a quarter of an hour. Here you have the complete game [Event "Frankfurt SC Comp m"] [Site "Frankfurt"] [Date "2000.06.18"] [Round "5"] [White "Comp Fritz/Primergy K800"] [Black "Kramnik, Vladimir"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "A27"] [BlackElo "2758"] [PlyCount "64"] [EventDate "2000.06.17"] [Source "ChessBase"] [SourceDate "2000.07.11"] 1. c4 e5 2.
