28... axb4 29. axb4
? Anand has lost all his sense of danger- a very foolish attitude towards a brilliant tactician as Kasparov! 29. Nxb4, was necessary but Black would be in the driving seat.

 
29... Rc5c4
When I first looked at this bit I thought White has 30. Nb6 forking both Rooks and winning the exchange. I did not see far enough as soon as I saw 30. Nb6 I thought right thats it and I followed the rest of the game through.

 
30. Nb6
Exacly what I thought would happen.

 
30... Rxb4+ 31. Ka3
Anand has assumed that Kasparov has blundered. But instead ANAND WALKED STRAIGHT INTO OBLIVION!!!!!!!!!!!

 
31... Rxc2
!!!! This move probably struck like lightning and wins on da spot!! After 32. Rxc2 Rb3 33. Ka2 Re3 34. Kb2 Rxe1. Seeing all of this Anand resigned immediately. It was only a few moves ago when of which Anand tried to push with a slight advantage; this very sudden and nasty twist of fate must have had a very, very depressing effect on Anand. Anyway Good game!!! I enjoyed it and I hope you all enjoyed it too Thanks for watching I will send in another soon.
