Champions Showdown
Five matches will be held in Chess960 (a.k.a. Fischer Random Chess), where the starting position will be drawn at random from 960 possibilities. The prize fund is USD $250,000.
Games are played with a "delay" — if the players make their moves within the delay time, no time is deducted from their clock. If they exceed the delay, the clock begins counting down.
On this DVD a team of experts gets to the bottom of Kasparov's play. In over 8 hours of video running time the authors Rogozenko, Marin, Reeh and Müller cast light on four important aspects of Kasparov's play: opening, strategy, tactics and endgame.
Commentary by GM Yasser Seirawan, GM Maurice Ashley and WGM Jennifer Shahade
