Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: Kf1 ok... "Where's my shoephone, Agent 99?" |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | An Englishman: Good Afternoon: Must brew more coffee; suffering from the hallucination that So has caught Shankland in a trap and won material. Have no idea what is wrong with my head today. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | WannaBe: Fireworks on f5 started?!!? |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | benveniste: I predict a flurry of exchanges ending up with opposite bishops and So having a slightly better pawn structure. Absent a blunder, a draw before move 40. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | Domdaniel: It's drawish, yes, but Black is just starting to probe for winning chances. There's play here still. |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: Qe2 Bg4 f3 Be6 with idea of g5 trapping the prelate |
|
Mar-30-17 | | theodor: the biger's the ELO, the boriest is the game! |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | An Englishman: Good Afternoon: 26...g5!?; 27.Rxe8,Qxe8; 28.Qxe8+,Kxe8; 29.Bg7 preserves the Bishop. 26...Rg8!? is bolder; Black hasn't given up hope of trapping and winning the Bh6. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | Domdaniel: <theodor> You're right, but the idea is better expressed like this: the higher the ELO rating, the more boring the game. |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: Or Rg8 with the same idea |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | Domdaniel: It also works in the other direction: the lower the ratings, the duller the game. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | Domdaniel: Black now has some winning chances, though there is a very long way to go. |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: Ba2 Qc2 Tg6 b3 Bb3 with a won endgame |
|
Mar-30-17 | | SirRuthless: I am seeing many forced reps now. |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: The alternative is Qh1 |
|
Mar-30-17 | | theodor: <<Domdaniel>: <theodor> You're right, but...> you're right - my english is poor, because I learned it by myself, mostly commenting on CHESSGAMES (for that I'm grateful to CG). |
|
Mar-30-17 | | SirRuthless: Qh1-Qh5 is the path and then a nice little B sac on g5 and the rep with Qh7+ Rg7 Qh5+ Rg6 Qh7+... Good game. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | An Englishman: Good Morning: Very well, so So did catch Shankland in a trap and he did win material. But I had hallucinated that Black would win the Bh6, not that pawn on a2, so no credit to me. Even if the threat of 32...f6-f5 and 33.Rxh6 is unstoppable. |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: But then black will have active Queen and Bishop - and white a Rook |
|
Mar-30-17 | | SirRuthless: perp forthcoming. |
|
Mar-30-17
 | | perfidious: Will Black blow through the rest of his time before acquiescing in the perpetual? |
|
Mar-30-17 | | vonKrolock: Sam had enough resources - Chapeau!! |
|
Mar-30-17 | | jarm: How about 33-Qh5? |
|
Mar-30-17 | | theodor: SO LONG, GUYS |
|
Mar-30-17 | | Pinkerton: Sam game by Shankland! |
