The Karpov-Kasparov Line of the Classical variation, Main Line, of the Petrov Defence.

9...0-0 X18

(Seirawan, 1985)

[ One obtains an equal game after: 9...dxc4 X19 10.Bxc4 X20 0-0 X21 11.Nc3 X22 Nd6 X23 12.Bb3 X24 Bf6 X25 13.h3 X26 Bf5 X27 14.Be3 X28 Re8 X29 15.a3 X30 Nd3 X31 16.Rb1= X32 Karpov, Anatoly (2705) - Kasparov, Garry (2715) C42 (71) 1/2-1/2, World-Ch, 1985. ]

10.a3 X33 Nc6 X34 11.cxd5 X35 Qxd5 X36 12.Nc3 X37 Nxc3 X38 13.bxc3 X39

ECB (ECO Codes Base) Classification: [C42-h10*]. The variation is currently very fashionable at the highest level.

13...Na5 X40

[ The Main continuation is: 13...Bf5 X41 with interesting pespectives for both side. Hence Black may keep the advantage like in the following game: 14.Bf4 X42 Rac8 X43 15.Re1 X44 Rfd8 X45 16.Bf1 X46 Bf6 X47 17.a4 X48 Na5! X49 18.Rc1 X50 Bg4 X51 19.Qd3 X52 c5! X53 =/+ Anand, Viswanathan (2781) - Ivanchuk, Vassily (2714) C42 (36) 0-1, Amber-blind 8th rapid, 1999.]

14.Rb1 X54 a6 X55 15.Ne5 X56 Bf5 X57 16.Bf3 X58 Qe6!?N X59

A novelty.

[ Black don' t obtain a particular advantage after: 16...Be4 X60 17.Bxe4 X61 Qxe4 X62 18.Rb2 X63 Qd5 X64 =/unclear Blehm, Pawel (2420) - Urban, Klaudlusz (2485) C42 (27) 1/2-1/2, MK Cafe Cup-A, 1998.]

17.Rb2 X65 Bxa3 X66 18.Re2

For a pawn, White keeps the control of the e-file and hopes a litle initiative. X67

18...Bxc1 X68 19.Nc6 X69 Qf6 X70 20.Nxa5 X71 Bf4 X72 21.Nxb7 X73

After this combination the material equality is restored.

21...Rab8 X74 22.Rfe1 X75 g6 X76 23.Ra2 X77 c6 X78 24.Nc5

Perhaps White has a few advantage, but is not enough. 1/2-1/2
