Since, like I said, an idea like as big like that RARELY happens to backfire like that when it comes from Kasparov, my money is on that it is that good.  Let the bets begin !

There's the Kasparov Gambit in the Taimanov with 5.Nb5 d6 6.c4; that hasn't exactly stood the test of time despite an absolutely brilliant stem game.  I reckon this line may be like that.

Very interesting that Kasparov had this idea in the 90's - it is an amazing idea, but is it really good for Black??? The true test will be the next game it is played in I think - first time around it is incredibly difficult to play against, even if somehow Svidler did manage to get a good position.

Kasparov mentioned that he analysed this line back in the 90s and shared his findings with Nakamura when they worked together, but Hikaru's just not had a chance to play it yet.

http://chess-news.ru/en/node/11577 mentions it in the second to last paragraph.

I have been wanting to take a deep look at this line since the game was played, but don't quite have the time yet!

Absolutely no idea Smiley Seemingly its at least reasonably sound as no one claimed it to be busted directly after the game.

I can remember the online computer at the time wanting to play Ne5g4!?!? instead of capturing on c4......

since no topic exists of this game, I thought I'd create one
so, what do you think of this astonishing piece sacrifice? is it really sound or just a one trick pony (but what a trick!)
