I think all of the above is wrong. It is not the best move, most brilliant, or
the best game. I looked at this game when it was first played. Rxd4 is not
winning. This is why chess programs don't play Rxd4. With best play Rxd4 only
draws.
Why Kasparov and others think this game is Kasparov's best is beyond me. If
Topalov would have found Kb6. No one would have said this is Kasparov's best
game. Rxd4 has been busted, and is busted....
