Commentary for white move 24:

ROMAN DZINDZIHASHVILI: Yeah, there we go now.

MIKE VALVO: Now Garry is going to get the position he wants exactly. GK MOVE: 24 Ra2.

MIKE VALVO: He didn't play Rb7. Now the computer has a chance. We have Maurice Ashley back. Now that you've came back, we've had a couple of we're things happen. We thought the computer couldn't take the pawn because of Rb7, and the computer took the pawn and Garry played Ra2. Is Garry playing like a computer now?

MAURICE ASHLEY: You know, this last move is the kind of move that you might think the guy plays in speed chess or if he's a little drunk or crazy.

ROMAN DZINDZIHASHVILI: Or both.

MAURICE ASHLEY: Or both. As some have been, not in present company, of course. But this Qa3 looks insane. Of course now, we can expect a victory for one side --

MIKE VALVO: Do we know which side?

MAURICE ASHLEY: We don't know which side, we have no clue. But this game is completely insane, Roman. You didn't anticipate Qa3. I heard you in back and I didn't think you liked this move.

ROMAN DZINDZIHASHVILI: Qa3, no, not when my eyes open! (Audience laughter.)

MAURICE ASHLEY: The chessboard looks completely insane now. The whole structure --

ROMAN DZINDZIHASHVILI: And what is weird that Kasparov didn't consider Rb7 that looks very, very strong.

MIKE VALVO: He didn't even spend much time on the move. Of course, he doesn't have much time to spend.

ROMAN DZINDZIHASHVILI: Let's see what he can possibly have in mind.

MIKE VALVO: Well, Qb3 is forced.
