Short-Kasparov Game 6

Short's first attempt at the Fischer-Sozin came in game 6, which you can follow on your own with this link. After missing out on decent opportunities from the ultra-sharp 6.

A subsequent ...e5 by Kasparov seemed a serious positional concession until Nigel's b4!? offered a concession in return for an attack. Fortunately you don't have to hear my nonsense about this game, because it was covered very well by others...
