May-28-10 Veselin Topalov    danielpi: <HeMateMe><Topalov could have handled his loss very intelligently, by saying "Anand outplayed me, and I hope to get another chance by winning the Candidates matches". Instead, he has to bad mouth the champ, and look foolish as a result. > Topalov demonstrates his usual      May-13-10 Magnus Carlsen    danielpi: <theagenbiteofinwit><I maintain that Carlsen's relationship to Kramnik is parallel to that of Fischer and Petrosian. It took Fischer years to come out ahead of Petrosian, but when he finally did, no one came between him and the Championship.> Interesting observation. ...      May-11-10 Topalov vs Anand, 2010    danielpi: <autolycus><Luck doesn't exist the way most people think it does. If it can be either ontological or epistemological, then it's like energy. Things seem to cause it or seem to be caused by it, but there is actually no reason (except for convenience of worldview) to believe      May-09-10 Anand vs Topalov, 2010    danielpi: <chancho><It looks like Anand is going to blow this game also, true to his tradition. A draw here is as good as a loss for White!> Not necessarily.> Yar. If Anand can survive Game 12, then he has good odds in rapids. Pressure on Topalov to win in classical time ...      May-04-10 Topalov vs Anand, 2010    danielpi: <Nigel><I don't know what my politics are. I do know, however, that I was commissioned to write a lengthy article on the Greek economy by the Guardian last week. To my astonishment they rejected it as being "too right-wing" (I was paid in full, by the way). I have ...      May-04-10 Vladimir Kramnik    danielpi: Incidentally, that's a 78.125% win ratio with the White side of the Catalan in classical time control, from 2006-2007. The ratio increases to 84.375% if you calculate over his whole career, and if you don't count the Deep Fritz match.      May-04-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010)    danielpi: Everyone seems to disagree with people who think that the match is boring (myself included). Who, I wonder, are these purported "people" claiming that the match is boring then? I have yet to encounter anyone seriously espousing that view.      May-04-10 Aleksander Wojtkiewicz    danielpi: New book out, titled "Wojo's Weapons", which looks interesting. Has anyone taken a look, and if so, is it worth buying? I'm always interested in 1. Nf3 stuff, although I think Wojo would play the King's Indian if Black wanted to go into it, whereas I really prefer going in to the ...      May-03-10 chessic eric chessforum   danielpi: FYI, you should not use the term "ad hominem" except in the context of fallacious argumentation. It's a pet peeve of mine, but so many people nowadays use "ad hominem" when they really just mean "being mean" or "attacking me personally", but they want to sound fancy. It's not ...      May-03-10 Anand vs Topalov, 2010    danielpi: <Eric><Agreed on the definition of ad hominem, but not on its applicability to your statement. To make my meaning clear I should have said "ad hominem attack on those who assert the idea of community." The point being that rather than engage in a conversation about the ...      Apr-24-10 Chessgames Bookie chessforum     Apr-24-10 Topalov vs Anand, 2010     Jul-17-09 Garry Kasparov     Jul-17-09 Anatoly Karpov     Apr-28-09 Peter Leko     Mar-26-09 Reti Opening (A04)     Mar-12-09 Mamedyarov vs I Kurnosov, 2009     Jan-19-09 Carlsen vs Movsesian, 2009     Jan-17-09 Carlsen vs Radjabov, 2009     Dec-31-08 angslo chessforum     Dec-05-08 Spassky vs B Larsen, 1970     Nov-30-08 Morozevich vs Adams, 1993    Nov-27-08 Robert James Fischer     Nov-27-08 A Moroz vs Fedorchuk, 2007    Nov-23-08 danielpi chessforum     Oct-28-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-26-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-25-08 Anand - Kramnik World Championship Match (2008)     Oct-23-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-20-08 Kramnik vs Anand, 2008     Oct-19-08 acirce chessforum     Oct-18-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-15-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-14-08 Kramnik vs Anand, 2008     Oct-05-08 Hans Arild Runde     Oct-03-08 Gerd Euler    Sep-28-08 Nigel Short     Sep-22-08 Karpov - Kasparov World Championship Match (1984/85)     Sep-22-08 Alexandra Kosteniuk     Sep-10-08 Kramnik vs Karpov, 2008     Sep-05-08 Viswanathan Anand     Jun-21-08 Gata Kamsky     Jun-20-08 Hikaru Nakamura     Jan-22-08 Short vs I Cheparinov, 2008     Dec-20-07 Santa Claus     Nov-29-07 Team White vs Team Black, 2007     Nov-14-07 Kramnik vs Leko, 2007     Oct-04-07 V Makogonov vs Kholmov, 1949    Sep-29-07 World Championship Tournament (2007)     Sep-24-07 Kramnik vs Anand, 2007     Sep-23-07 Morozevich vs Kramnik, 2007     Sep-16-07 Tal vs Spassky, 1980     Sep-16-07 Kramnik vs Grischuk, 2007     Sep-16-07 Eric Schiller     Sep-15-07 Leko vs Gelfand, 2007     Sep-15-07 Anand vs Kramnik, 2007     Aug-31-07 I Arakelov vs E Vorobiov, 2007     Aug-31-07 T Mautner vs R Samar, 1999     Jul-30-07 A Muzychuk vs E Paehtz, 2007     Jul-28-07 Kramnik vs Krasenkow, 2003     Jul-14-07 G Abrahams vs G J Wood, 1946     Jul-13-07 Short vs V Kaminski, 2007     Jul-13-07 A Sokolov vs Mecking, 2007     Jul-13-07 Karpov vs M Gurevich, 1988     Jun-21-07 Eyal chessforum     May-30-07 jessicafischerqueen chessforum     Apr-10-07 Jesse Kraai     Apr-03-07 Vasily Smyslov     Apr-03-07 Ziggurat chessforum     Apr-02-07 JointheArmy chessforum     Apr-02-07 chessmoron chessforum     Mar-30-07 Domdaniel chessforum     Feb-27-07 Morphy vs Maurian, 1869     Feb-20-07 Khalifman vs Kramnik, 1993    Feb-19-07 Carlsen vs Anand, 2007     Feb-09-07 Tigran Petrosian     Jan-21-07 Karpov - Anand FIDE World Championship Match (1998)     Jan-17-07 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)     Jan-17-07 Corus Group A (2007)     Jan-14-07 Radjabov vs Karjakin, 2007     Jan-12-07 Karsten Mueller     Jan-04-07 P Mertens vs E Eichhorn, 1968     Jan-03-07 Ciudad de Pamplona (2006)    Jan-01-07 Alexey Shirov     Dec-31-06 Mikhail Tal     Dec-26-06 Kramnik - Deep Fritz (2006)     Dec-26-06 Karpov vs Polugaevsky, 1974     Dec-26-06 Karpov vs Petrosian, 1982     Dec-26-06 achieve chessforum     Dec-26-06 Petrosian vs Karpov, 1973     Dec-26-06 Petrosian vs Karpov, 1975    Dec-26-06 Karpov vs Spassky, 1975     Dec-25-06 A H Williams vs Karpov, 1974     Nov-18-06 Svidler vs Ponomariov, 2006     Nov-09-06 Karpov - Fischer World Championship Match (1975)     Nov-09-06 Napoleon Bonaparte vs General Bertrand, 1820     Oct-30-06 Napoleon Bonaparte     Oct-29-06 Jose Raul Capablanca     Oct-28-06 Averbakh vs Korchnoi, 1950     Oct-14-06 lostemperor chessforum     Oct-09-06 shr0pshire chessforum     Oct-01-06 Raymond Keene     Sep-24-06 Kramnik vs Topalov, 2006     Sep-23-06 TheSlid chessforum     Sep-11-06 whatthefat chessforum     Aug-19-06 The World vs A Nickel, 2006     Jul-13-06 Aron Nimzowitsch     Jul-07-06 Tigran L Petrosian     May-31-06 Rybka (Computer)     May-11-06 MTel Masters (2006)     Apr-21-06 Karpov vs Topalov, 1994     Apr-11-06 Topalov - Nisipeanu Match (2006)     Mar-11-06 Morelia-Linares (2006)     Feb-23-06 Aronian vs Svidler, 2006     Feb-20-06 Aronian vs Topalov, 2006     Feb-20-06 Svidler vs Leko, 2006     Feb-19-06 Svidler vs Topalov, 2006     Jan-17-06 chessgames.com chessforum     Jan-15-06 Smyslov vs Botvinnik, 1955     Jan-13-06 Yuri Averbakh     Jan-09-06 hayton3 chessforum     Jan-06-06 A J Goldsby     Dec-31-05 Alexander Morozevich     Dec-31-05 Russian Championship Superfinal (2005)     Dec-17-05 World Cup (2005)     Nov-08-05 Zhong Zhang     Oct-13-05 FIDE World Championship Tournament (2005)     Oct-10-05 Kramnik vs Kasparov, 1995     Oct-10-05 Kramnik vs Ivanchuk, 1996     Sep-29-05 Leko vs Topalov, 2005     Sep-17-05 Michael Adams     Sep-03-05 Kramnik vs M Sorokin, 1991     Sep-01-05 Karpov vs Lutikov, 1979     Aug-11-05 Keres vs Petrosian, 1959     Aug-07-05 Sax vs V Ciocaltea, 1974     Aug-07-05 Spassky vs Petrosian, 1969     Aug-07-05 Salomon Flohr     Aug-06-05 Caro-Kann (B10)     Jun-01-05 Albert Einstein
