Subject: Kasparov Article & Analysis

Kasparov wrote a nice article on the great Tal - Smyslov game, which appears in
this months Chess Life.
He used  Fritz for some of the analysis.

I refer to Pg 19 left column where he presents 13 ....Bd8
He states:
"If Black had played 13..Bc5?, then Tal's fantastic idea would
have appeared in all its glory:
14Qh4 bxc4 15.Bc3!.
Believe it or not, Black is defensless against the numerous threats
(Rxd7, Nxg7, Qg5, Ng5), for example:
15...Qxa2 16.Rxd7 Bxd7 17.Nh6+ Kh8 18.Qxf6!! with Mate."

I was skeptical of this, and checked it with Fritz.
Position after 15 Bc3
r1b2rk1/p2n1ppp/q1p2n2/2b2N2/2p4Q/2B2N2/PPP2PPP/2KR3R b - - 0 15

Continuing with his Analysis; after 15....Qa2 16.Rd7
r1b2rk1/p2R1ppp/2p2n2/2b2N2/2p4Q/2B2N2/qPP2PPP/2K4R b - - 0 16
16... Bb4!! Saves the game.   It took Fritz 0.01 seconds, so I don't see how he
could have missed it.
I wonder if he left out this analysis on purpose?

The Fritz eval doesn't show in the game here.
Sorry, I don't know how you guys do that, print the Diagrams, Evaluations etc.
