The analysts for the World Team in the Kasparov vs. The World are all rising young chess superstars. These are the next generation of names that will rise to the top of the chess-playing world. If you're unsure what move to play against World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov, our analysts can point you in the right direction with their thoughtful responses.

Garry Kasparov's king steps to the side to make way for the g-pawn to advance. Thanks to the careful positioning of White's queen, Black is unable to give any checks (as well as the f-file, the d4 and h4 squares have craftily been covered).

This is the problem. Without a check, The World will be unable to prevent White's pawn from advancing again, so that on the next turn it will be just one square from becoming a new queen. How can Black meet this? With difficulty; ultimately, resistance is futile.

To put up the best fight the queen needs to hassle White's king with checks. Black could give the queen more room by playing 61...d4, so as to check on c6. Then Garry will push his pawn, ready to find a precise path with his king and queen through the maze of checks. Unfortunately, Black's d-pawn is just too far away from the queening square to provide sufficient counterplay.

Even though the position is lost, the path to victory is delicate. And judging by the vote for the last move, there are still many players who would like to see the World Champion demonstrate his winning technique.

d4 to Kasparov's Kf6

I suggest d4 with the idea of giving repeated checks to the World Champion, while moving The World's pawn forward.

Resign to Kasparov's Kf6

I think it is only a matter of time until Kasparov will get his second queen on the board and win the game; for The World,the best way to continue this interesting game is to resign with a decent position on the board and not to spoil the beautiful (Microsoftian!) image created by the rest of the game. We have to accept our defeat thinking of how much popularity chess has gained in only a few months, thanks to this thrilling game, made possible by Microsoft and the World Champion.

d4 to Kasparov's Kf6

The best move seems to be 61...d4, but after 62. g7... Qc6+ 63.Kg5 ...Qd5+ 64.Qf5 ...Qg2+, White has a pleasant choice between 65.Kh6 and 65.Kf6... Qc6+ 66.Qe6... Qf3+ 67.Ke7 ...Qb7+ 68.Qd7... Qe4+ 69.Kd8, winning the game.
