Qian has kibitzed 34 times to chessgames   [less...]

Dec-23-03 P Leonhardt vs NN, 1912    Qian: wow.      Dec-14-03 Timman vs C van Wijgerden, 1977    Qian: this is checkmate... isnt it?      Dec-09-03 Charousek vs J Wollner, 1893    Qian: white didnt have the chance to play Qe8 because of the discovered check.      Dec-07-03 Kasparov vs Vaganian, 1995    Qian: 10. b4 and then black bxb4 and nothing happens.      Nov-29-03 M Romm vs S Tatai, 1973    Qian: Nxh5!! whoa!! if exh5 then mate in 3... wow.      Nov-28-03 Mamedyarov vs D Schneider, 2003    Qian: Bill, because if the Queen moves away, 18. Rxg7+ Kxg7 19. Qxe7 Kh6 (Kg8 leads to 20. Rg1+) with a fork on the second knight      Nov-18-03 Karpov vs Kramnik, 1998    Qian: i dont get the followup by aulero, can the king move to h4 afterwards? What will be the check after that? it has to be a check before black does bxh2 right?      Sep-05-03 D Hermann vs Charousek, 1896    Qian: a very interesting combo. 22. Kxh2 is no good because of the discovered queen attack 23. Qxf1 or Rxf1 is no good because of the mate at 23...Bh3+ 24. Kg2, Qh2# 24. Qxe2 is no good because of 24... Bh3+ 25. Kg1, Qh2+ 26. Kf1, Qh1# I think that is it.      Sep-04-03 Morphy vs A Meek, 1857    Qian: a pretty obvious combination. I would have went for cxd8=R just for the heck of it. The plan actually became clear after Nxd6 and black seems to have lost his advantage way before the execution. perhaps 24. bxd5 ?      Aug-30-03 R Byrne vs P Markland, 1972    Qian: I dont see it Watson. I will probably follow it with 23... Rxf2 which is equally as threatening. 24. Rxh6 Ndh5 25. Nf6+ Kg7 and that will probably be the end of white's attack. And that will also leave white with a lot to worry about.      Aug-30-03 V Mikenas vs Bronstein, 1965     Aug-29-03 Staunton vs J Owen / T Barnes, 1858     Aug-29-03 J Schulten vs Kieseritzky, 1850     Aug-29-03 H Wolf vs Gunsberg, 1902     Aug-28-03 Mecking vs L A Tan, 1973     Aug-28-03 Mecking vs Reshevsky, 1973     Aug-27-03 J Rosanes vs Anderssen, 1863     Aug-25-03 I Varasdy vs S Polgar, 1983     Aug-24-03 A Markov vs P Vinogradov, 1916     Aug-24-03 Barcza vs Simagin, 1949     Aug-20-03 Spielmann vs Flamberg, 1914     Aug-19-03 Ray Charles vs Evans, 2002     Aug-18-03 Reti vs Tartakower, 1910     Aug-17-03 Kupreichik vs A Planinc, 1970     Aug-16-03 Petrosian vs Simagin, 1956     Aug-15-03 Korchnoi vs Spassky, 1952     Aug-15-03 Petrosian vs Spassky, 1966     Aug-14-03 Maroczy vs Rubinstein, 1908     Aug-13-03 A Mikhalchishin vs D Pavasovic, 1999     Aug-09-03 P Cramling vs Petursson, 1986     Aug-09-03 E Post vs A Nimzowitsch, 1905
