Anatoly Borodavkin played against Garry Kasparov in the Kasparov Internet Simul from Odessa Internet Club Susanin. Game continued from 11.00 p.m. March 14 to 2.00 a.m. March 15 Ukrainian local time.
Several Anatoly's optimistic moves in the opening such as 7...Na5?! were enough to get serious troubles. After the very strong 25.Ra8! Anatoly blundered (25...Bb7?). However, even after relatively better move 25...h6 White is close to win, as analysis shows.
After losing a pawn, Anatoly heroically played until move 61 and, as a result, his game become longest in the simultan.
Kasparov's 61.f8N!! ended this great struggle on the humorous note.
