| Apr-08-05 | | Kingdumb: <aw1988: Except that neither player is Fritz, and any moves missed past move 100 is probably due to being tired.> Tired, drunk, or dead my point is the game was not pre-arranged and was lost due to human error. To make excuses that they were tired because it was past move 100 is a lame excuse. These are GMs and should be able to play 100 plus move games. My point is, if white played correctly there was a clear win here. |
|
| Apr-08-05 | | aw1988: I on the contrary would believe that even GM's get tired after move 100, but yes, I see your approach. |
|
| Apr-21-05 | | allanon880: This game would get boring after a while. It would just take too much time to play. |
|
| Apr-22-05 | | shortsight: Maybe Nakamura learnt his fighting spirit from Seirawan, and tried it on another Chinese in the name of Zhu Chen. |
|
| Apr-22-05 | | isolatedpawn: The game was a draw long time before they actually drew. Its strange that White continued playing after move 181. It's not expected from a GM like Sierawan. |
|
| Apr-22-05 | | sharkbenjamin: What was this about? |
|
| May-31-05 | | lentil: since the game was in an olympic event, perhaps YS played on because his team was in desserate need of the half-point. |
|
| Aug-05-05 | | Averageguy: How the hell do these two find the efffort to play continuously for 191 moves?! Thats 382 if you count both players moves! This is the longest game I know. Does anyone here know of a longer one? |
|
| Aug-05-05 | | jamesmaskell: Forgotten the names but go to the search bit and search for at least 200 moves. Theres one game with 255 moves! |
|
| Aug-05-05 | | iron maiden: I Nikolic vs G Arsovic, 1980 was 269 moves. |
|
| Aug-05-05 | | jamesmaskell: Arsovic...what a brilliant surname! |
|
| Aug-31-05 | | tiburon92: I think that they kept on playing in order to try to wear each other down for the next game. |

| Mar-18-08 | | porgue: <Arsovic...what a brilliant surname!>
Imre Lovass why did seirawan play on after move 180? was he trying to be an ass or something |
|
| Jul-01-08 | | Jim Bartle: Seirawan wrote in jest: "I blame my informants. They said he was a poor endgame player." |
|
| Dec-13-08 | | WhiteRook48: The ♙ on f7 remains on its starting square for 172 moves! |
|
| Jan-02-09 | | WhiteRook48: I mean 171 moves. |
|
| Jan-11-09 | | WhiteRook48: where did white blunder into a draw? |
|
| Jan-24-09 | | WhiteRook48: anyone?? Where'd white miss the win? |
|
| Jan-26-09 | | WhiteRook48: and a great game! |
|
| Jan-27-09 | | WhiteRook48: I played this game out (yes, all the moves) and I wonder how they could've played for SOOO long. Funny that these guys would play out the last 10 moves |
|
| Jan-28-09 | | WhiteRook48: 182. Kf4 just seems pointless. It's a draw anyhow |
|
| Jan-31-09 | | WhiteRook48: a stalemate at move 191 just is amazing |
|
| Feb-01-09 | | WhiteRook48: comical endgame |
|
| Jun-15-11 | | Sho: 'The F7 pawn remains on its starting square for 171 moves,' can't we come up with a chess maxim for such an occasion? |
|
| Feb-23-21 | | zzerimar: Yasser tells the story about this game on a youtube video, the queen pawn endgame was adjourned over and over, lasted five or six days, and messed up the Olympiads pairings @42:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=252... |
