Kamsky Falters in Game Two
February 18, 2009
logo_en.jpgGata Kamsky lost the second game of the World Chess Challenge Match (Feb. 16-28) against GM Veselin Topalov. This was a sad one for Kamsky fans, as Gata lost with White in the first time control. Topalov chose the Berlin Defense, which was presumably a surprise, since Gata spent over an hour on the first ten moves.
