It has also been a favorite opening of World Champions throughout history such as Capablanca, Botvinnik, Petrosian and Karpov, and has seen steady growth in popularity in recent years, played by modern Super-GMs such as Anand, Adams, and Leko. The opening has been a guest at several World Chess Championship Matches throughout history, including, for instance, the match between Garry Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov in 1987, the match between Vladimir Kramnik and Peter Leko in 2004, and the match between Vishy Anand and Magnus Carlsen in 2013. caro kann 3 The Caro-Kann belongs to the group of semi-open chess openings for Black and occurs after the moves 1.e4 c6 (see the position on the right).
