Good description of every post you ever make, come to Carlsen and his games.

Dec-26-16  CountryGirl: This 'nonamer' has so far also drawn with Nepo (a killer at rapid time limits) and Tomashevsky, and beaten Artemiev and Jakovenko. He ain't so bad...
Dec-26-16  PhilFeeley: Levan Pantsulaia is definitely NOT a "nonamer" if you watch any chess at all.

Good game. Why did Magnus not take the pawn at move 43? Was he afraid of his knight getting trapped?

Dec-26-16  PhilFeeley: Answered my own question: 44. Bd3 traps it.

That was funny.

  JointheArmy: Levan played nearly a perfect game. This is how I'd imagine Stockfish vs Carlsen going.

  perfidious: <nok>, the intent was indeed humorous--if way over that poster's head.
Dec-27-16  BwanaVa: Not a Kings Indian Attack. This is an English by transposition.
Dec-31-16  Grbasowski: WHY NOT 10. ... e4?!
Dec-31-16  WorstPlayerEver: Because 11. dxe4 just a guess.
