Jun-22-17 Bacrot vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2017    KholdStare: No comments yet, so here are some thoughts about this game from the stream. 8...Nxc3 was pretty sound, but the continuation wasn't. 12...Nc4 was a mistake, which helps white castle after Bxc4. If instead, 12...O-O, then white's pieces are stuck. Ne2 leads to mate. Be2 and now the      Apr-01-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    KholdStare: Even though I'm a Carlsen "fan", I'm still pretty unhappy with the tiebreaker rules. Yes we know them beforehand so it's completely fair. But that doesn't stop me from disliking it.      Mar-10-13 D Minic vs Fischer, 1970    KholdStare: <scormus> I think what you need to see is that the white queen is pinned. So 33...d4! and the white king is locked in place.      Dec-25-12 K McDonald vs N Rosenthal, 2011    KholdStare: It really feels easier than Monday.      Dec-19-12 The World vs V Akobian, 2012    KholdStare: Consider me of the opinion that we shouldn't discuss the next game directly on this thread.      Dec-10-12 Carlsen vs Anand, 2012    KholdStare: Yep, it's a Berlin. We'll have to see if someone makes a mistake early otherwise it might be an early draw.w      Jun-01-12 B Vladimirov vs Z Doda, 1967    KholdStare: Not just this puzzle, but this entire game is great!      May-30-12 Gelfand vs Anand, 2012    KholdStare: <ahmadov: Loss or draw under time pressure decreases the credibility of the world champion... Therefore, it would be good if the champion would be decided in the classical games.> I can see both sides here. The organizers don't want to keep having drawn games forever so ...      May-30-12 Anand vs Gelfand, 2012    KholdStare: My bad, I meant RN vs R.      May-30-12 Gelfand vs Anand, 2012    KholdStare: Anyone want to ponder what would happen if 28.Qd3 was played?      Nov-21-10 V Akhmadeev vs A Aleksandrov, 2008     Nov-21-10 G Stoltz vs Flohr, 1931     May-03-09 Grischuk vs Leko, 2002    Mar-01-09 Ivanchuk vs Radjabov, 2009     Feb-28-09 Grischuk vs Dominguez Perez, 2009     Jun-03-08 J Perlis vs Vidmar, 1907     Mar-29-08 Shulman vs R Hess, 2008     Mar-28-08 Shulman vs Shabalov, 2008     Mar-16-08 Morozevich vs Topalov, 2008     Feb-22-08 G Kluger vs B Sandor, 1954     Dec-06-07 Carlsen vs I Cheparinov, 2007     Oct-10-07 Adianto vs G Pieterse, 1986     Sep-05-07 The World vs G Timmerman, 2007     Aug-02-07 Carlsen vs Radjabov, 2007     Jul-31-07 Carlsen vs Pelletier, 2007     Jul-27-07 Motylev vs Carlsen, 2007     Jul-21-07 Karpov vs Korchnoi, 1994     Feb-23-07 S Savchenko vs Savon, 1999     Feb-03-07 Shredder vs Ant, 2006     Jan-27-07 Shulman vs The World, 2007     Jan-05-07 Adorjan vs M Fuller, 1975     Dec-24-06 Santa Claus     Nov-07-06 D Baird vs Blackburne, 1889    Nov-05-06 Tal Memorial (2006)     Oct-29-06 Karpov vs Korchnoi, 1971     Oct-28-06 Topalov vs J Polgar, 2006     Oct-22-06 T S Nguyen vs W Paschall, 2005    Oct-20-06 Y Shen vs E Karavade, 2006     Sep-28-06 B Kouatly vs Tseshkovsky, 1988     Aug-04-06 Kramnik vs Adams, 2006     Aug-03-06 Carlsen vs L Bruzon Batista, 2006     Aug-01-06 A Volokitin vs Morozevich, 2006     Jul-28-06 P Cramling vs M Socko, 2006     Jul-27-06 A Yusupov vs A Reuss, 2005     Jun-29-06 Van Wely vs Morozevich, 2001     Jun-12-06 Anand vs Topalov, 2006     Jun-04-06 ETABETA vs Chiron, 2006     Jun-01-06 ParSOS vs ETABETA, 2006     May-31-06 Kramnik vs Bacrot, 2006     Apr-07-06 Topalov vs Nisipeanu, 2006     Apr-06-06 Nisipeanu vs Topalov, 2006     Apr-06-06 Alekhine vs P Leonhardt, 1910     Mar-10-06 Topalov vs Leko, 2006     Mar-08-06 Topalov vs Ivanchuk, 2006     Mar-07-06 Radjabov vs Topalov, 2006     Mar-06-06 K Hamppe vs P Meitner, 1872     Mar-06-06 Korchnoi vs Karpov, 1978     Mar-06-06 Ljubojevic vs Andersson, 1976     Mar-03-06 Leko vs F Vallejo Pons, 2006     Feb-28-06 Vasiukov vs V Hora, 1965     Feb-24-06 Chigorin vs A Skipworth, 1883     Feb-24-06 M Bagdasarova vs K Rybenko, 1998     Feb-20-06 Aronian vs Topalov, 2006     Feb-20-06 Svidler vs Leko, 2006     Feb-19-06 Leko vs Radjabov, 2006     Feb-18-06 Svidler vs Topalov, 2006     Jan-31-06 F Manca vs F Braga, 1992     Jan-25-06 C D'Amore vs Aprea, 1970     Nov-20-05 Morphy vs Le Carpentier, 1849
