| Jun-06-11 | | KingV93: At first glance I thought it was a stupid way to play the Kings Gambit, though I am loathe to criticize the analysis on this site let alone the play of the demi-gods who sit at the feet of Caissa ... I liked 30.♗e5+ much better and at first Fritz wholeheartedly agrees...but after deeper thinking gives an advantage of less than a pawn. 32.♗b4 should get ??? Yikes, talk about losing the thread! |

 | | FSR: Yup, definitely one of the top blunders in chess history. 33...Ne7? (33...Nc5!) in Kasparov vs Karpov, 1987 was nowhere near as egregious a blunder, and Karpov still had drawing chances, but it was also pretty significant. |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | Llawdogg: Chigorin was drunk. |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | Ferro: Wilhelm Steinitz! is best than
Mikhail Chigorin |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | Gogia: So, 32.Rxb7 is winning for white?? |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | kevin86: As to my post a few days ago:Chigorin's last move deserves two question marks. The penalty is immediate mate in two. |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | rossvassilev: 32.Bb4?? That's just plain dumb. All Chigorin had to play was 32.Nf4 and he would've had the game pretty much won. |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | Don Quijote: Why did they chose this for the Game of The day?
shouldn't be in the "Blunder of the day"? (or blunder of the year?) |

| Jun-06-11 | | newzild: <rossvassilev: 32.Bb4?? That's just plain dumb. All Chigorin had to play was 32.Nf4 and he would've had the game pretty much won.> 32. Nf4 loses a piece to 32...Rxe7 |
|
| Jun-06-11 | | WhiteRook48: 32 Nf4 is still better than what was played |
|
| Jun-07-11 | | newzild: <WhiteRook48: 32 Nf4 is still better than what was played> Yes, any move except for 32. Re1 would have been better than the move played. However, the suggested 32. Nf4 is not much better, and White would not have "had the game pretty much won". |
|
| Nov-24-13 | | pericles of athens: That is a real howler of a blunder, poor Chigorin! We're all human. |
|
| Apr-15-14 | | pattydee: I can't find a clear and convincing winning 32nd move for White.
32.Rb7: Rd6: and White wins the piece back, but maybe Whites a2+b2 pawns will play a role. Steinitz was a master at using his King as an attacking piece and Chigorin's "attacking pieces" are all tied up. |
|
| Apr-15-14 | | Karpova: <pattydee: I can't find a clear and convincing winning 32nd move for White. 32.Rb7: Rd6: and White wins the piece back, but maybe Whites a2+b2 pawns will play a role.> 32.Rxb7 Rxd5 33.Nf4 |

 | | perfidious: <pattydee: I can't find a clear and convincing winning 32nd move for White. 32.Rb7: Rd6: and White wins the piece back, but maybe Whites a2+b2 pawns will play a role.> This line loses to 33.Nf4.
The only try after 32.Rxb7 appears to be 32....Bh5, but 33.Rb3 defends. |

| Oct-21-14 | | Ke2: Ahaha I love this pun |
|
| Jun-01-16 | | posoo: What on EARTH whould STYNUTS send his horse CRASHING down da field with NO PLAN for escampe?! Dis is TERABLE. Too bad da RUSSIANS have a nombosto for a PATRIORCH |
|
| Nov-21-16 | | posoo: Also WHY DOS da game of da day have to be GOOD? CAN IT NOT BE an HOSTORICAL event RIFE WITH SMASHING? I think it can.

 | | Benzol: What move should Chigorin have played instead of 32.Bb4? Is <Zkid>'s 32.Bf4 the best move for White here or is there something better? |
|
Nov-12-17
 | | offramp: <Benzol: What move should Chigorin have played instead of 32.Bb4?> I think that <Funicular>'s <: 32 Rxb7 seals the deal> looks reasonable. |
|
| Jan-15-19 | | Pyrandus: Chigorin's greatest Blunder? |
|
| Sep-02-19 | | Chesgambit: ıf chigorin win this match chigorin could be world champion |
|
| Oct-29-20 | | Chesgambit: Rxb7! Bh5 Rb3! Maybe Chigorin miss Rb3 becuase Bf3 Rg2 coming |
|

 | | Willem Wallekers: This to me seems the only reasonable explanation for the blunder: <Happypuppet: <This doesn't look like a touch-and-move error.> White cannot protect the h2 pawn and e7 rook at the same time if he moves the bishop.> Otherwise what was white trying to achieve with Bb4? |
|
| Jan-15-23 | | Mathematicar: Maybe the greatest blunder of the World Chess Championships. |
