Ng4 16 fxg4 Bxd4. White refutes 14 Nxc6. 16 Nxc6 Strengthening Black's center, a small concession. White could play against the isolani with 16 Qxc5 16 QI2 or 16 Rac1 Qb6 17 Q(2, but he must avoid the traps 15 Nb3? d4! 16 Nxd4 Ng4 and 15 Ncb5l?

16 Kh1 Rb8 17 Na4 Rb4 18 b3 Ba6 Finally Kasparov slows down, using 37 minutes on this move and the next. Black's dark-square control guarantees him some compensation for the exchange, but White must have the advantage. 19 Nb2 Surprising. One would expect a conservative player like Karpov to consolidate with Ral-dl and Qe3-f2 before maneuvering Na4-b2-d3. NhSI 20 Nd3 White responds sharply, as 20 Rab 1 Bd4 2 1 Qd2 Bxc5 22 Nd3 Rh4 23 Qe1 Be7 gives Black plenty of compensation.

Even worse is 23 Nxc5? Ng3 24 Kgl Qxc5 25 Rf2 Nhl! 26 Kxh1 Qxl2. when Black should win. Rh4 21 Qf2 Qa7 Deep Thought, the world's best chess computer, preferred 21 g5. but 22 g4! Bxa1 23 Rxa1 Nf6 24 Ne5 keeps White on top. 22 94 II 22 Radl, Black can force a draw with 22 Bd4 23 Qel Bc3l 24 QI2 Bd4.

The attempt to hold the exchange by 22 Rac1 Bd4 23 Qel Be3 24 Rc2 is too risky. Alter either 24 151? or 24 Qg5 25 g4 Nf4, Black's KB will outplay White's Rook. Bd4l Heading for the draw.

INTERNATIONAL NEWS The world championship reached the hallway point Wednesday, concluding its phase in New York City. Champion Gary Kasparov and challenger Anatoly Karpov are still tied, 6-6, in the best-of-24-game match.

Each has won one game. The match shifts to Lyon, France, for the remaining 12 games. Game 13 is scheduled for November 24. Despite the high percentage of draws, the match has been full of fight. Several of the games revealed new ideas in the openings, particularly Kasparov's handling of the King's Indian Defense.

As always, a few commentators have called the play sloppy. Frankly, I think that this match outshines the four previous Kas-parov-Karpov tussles in quality. The 29th Chess Olympiad begins November 16 in Nov! Sad, Yugoslavia. Men's and women's teams representing more than 100 nations will compete in the World Chess Federation's most popular event. In the men's tournament, IM John Donaldson will be the non-playing captain for the U.S.

team of GM's Yasser Seirawan of Seattle, Boris Gulko of Massachusetts, Larry Christiansen of New York City, Joel Benjamin of New York City, John Fedorowicz of New York City, and Nick de Firmlan of Berkeley. The country's highest-rated player, 16-year old Gata Kamsky of New York City, declined his invitation. The U.S. women's team of WGM's Elena Donaldson of Seattle, Anna Akhsharumova of Massachusetts, Esther Epstein of Massachusetts, and 1989 U.S. women's champion Alexey Root of Los Angeles will be captained by IM Alexander Iva-nov, Epstein's husband.

For the first time, the U.S. women have a good chance for a medal, and they may even threaten the powerhouses from Hungary and the Soviet Union.
