Jun-07-06 | | babakova: My first spontaneous impression is; pretty decent game. Black plays well. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | dbquintillion: ok, so that's the pop culture pun, but there's got to be a better pun here somewhere. i think it would involve "game theory" somehow. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | geraldo8187: is this the same nash as portrayed in a beautiful mind? |
|
Jun-07-06
 | | WannaBe: That is John Nash. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | geraldo8187: yes, but maybe his middle initial is w or something. don't see the point of the pun if its not the same guy |
|
Jun-07-06 | | CapablancaFan: In the movie, Nash was a genius mathematical theorist. And I will admit Nash's combo beginning with 13...Rxc3! was near genius exploiting the g7 diagnol to the fullest. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | The17thPawn: Wow!, Nash's play here is very direct and tactically strong. I just wish there were more examples by him in the database. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | notsodeepthought: 12 ... N:d4, which starts the rout, is cute but should have been easy to spot. Fontinha must have been cheesed off at not seeing that one. |

Jun-07-06 | | hitman84: <Chessgames.com> I love the pun. Here are some great quotes from the movie..
"The best results come when everyone in the group does what's good for themselves" - Adam Smith incomplete...
"The best results come when everyone in the group does what's good for themselves AND THE GROUP" - John Nash This holds good for chess team events as well.
First quote by John Nash in the movie "A beautiful mind" "That would be a mathematical explanation for how bad your tie is" I was playing a game on FICS and my opponent after losing badly asked me for a rematch.I rejected the offer. he said "you scared"
I replied...
Terrified. Mortified. Petrified. Stupefied... by your blunders. :) he replied "thought so"
LOL!
the quote from the movie
Hansen: You scared?
Nash: [sarcastically] Terrified. Mortified. Petrified. Stupefied... by you. more quotes from the movie..

 | | alexmagnus: The mathematician is John Forbes Nash, so he is not this one. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | hitman84: Yes I know he was John Forbes Nash Jr.
I was referring to the movie.(pun) |
|
Jun-07-06 | | Insightful: When I went to see the movie there were two teenage girls seated a couple of rows back. About 7 minutes into the movie they got up and left. I nudged my date and whispered, "Apparently they didn't realize it was a math move." |

Jun-07-06 | | dakgootje: nice game, with a very nice pun imho.
Love the movie |
|
Jun-07-06 | | Gochen: why 13.Qa4? |
|
Jun-07-06 | | MikeChesss: I'm with Gochen. Why not 13.Qc8? |
|
Jun-07-06 | | kevin86: I would have liked a pun to do with fountain (Fontinha-sounds Brazilian,by the way). A really fine attack by black-with sacs and all. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | horseyattack101: 13. Qxc8 allows for 13. ... Bxc8 and there goes your queen. I thought the right move was 13. Qxd4. |
|
Jun-07-06 | | CapablancaFan: <horseyattack101: 13. Qxc8 allows for 13. ... Bxc8 and there goes your queen. I thought the right move was 13. Qxd4.> 13.Qxd4?? ...Bc5! and there goes your queen. (It's a pin). |
|
Jun-07-06 | | EmperorAtahualpa: Some very unbalanced positions in this game, so "Nash equilibrium" would not have made a good pun. :) |
