  alexmagnus: Praggnanandhaa's first win over 2700 (Howell is officially 2701).
Sep-28-17  ndg2: Praggnanandhaa's real strength may as well be 100 ELO higher.
Sep-28-17  WorstPlayerEver: Lol after 52... Kxd5 the position is drawn. For the average 1700 ELO player.

  FSR: Not fair. Howell almost lost on time just writing the kid's name on his scoresheet.

Oh c'mon.. 53... f4 is probably the only move which loses. Except saccing the Rook.

Sep-28-17  WorstPlayerEver: PS corr: it seems 53... Rb6/b7/b8 are the only moves to keep the draw for Black.
Sep-28-17  paavoh: Black was squeezed like a lemon. Wonderful, mature game by the young R.P.
Sep-28-17  lakshashishu: FSR lol...thats why So is so lower rated.
Sep-28-17  ACMEKINGKRUSHER: I'v said it before and I'll say it again! This "KID" is going places! He is one to lookout for. We night just see him at the WORLD CUP someday! Maybe The Candidates, and....maybe even....... We will just have to see and "LOOK INTO THE FUTURE WHEN IT IS THE PRESENT"! Until then I will have to tell all The Great and Strong... ACME PAWN PUSHERS to ""WATCH" their computers and continue to be AMAZED! GO PRAGGA GO!!

Maybe I'm being too snobbish, but I don't think being somewhere in the low 40s on the classical list makes Howell a super grandmaster.

  ChessCoachClark: 44. Rc4 is a work of art-- one step that makes an Attacking X-Ray and a Defensive X-Ray both at once. Beauty, indeed!
