CopyBlanca has kibitzed 35 times to chessgames   [more...]

Oct-31-24 Tal vs Shamkovich, 1972    CopyBlanca: atrocious defense by Black .      Sep-11-24 E Torre vs S Polgar, 1985   CopyBlanca: her first win against a grandmaster. Torre did not have a vastly superior position ever. She explained the trap she set on move 17 and calculated 10 moves ahead. brilliant and stockfish agrees with her move 17... accepting the pawn was a mistake but that is not the point..      Jun-10-24 Spassky vs Taimanov, 1955    CopyBlanca: I wrote a fictional short story about Spassky giving an exhibition... Here are excerpts...hope u enjoy... Hoping to make Boris feel better Lawrence brought up Boris’s game featured in the James Bond movie From Russia with Love. “Boris, in the Bond movie I did not even know it      Dec-16-22 Bronstein vs Keres, 1950    CopyBlanca: Botvinnik was the best...just ask Botvinnik..      Aug-20-21 Tartakower vs Yates, 1924   CopyBlanca: the last move is R-a7 which is shown in the book of the 1924 tournament written by Alekhine..      Dec-15-20 Alekhine vs Claret, 1935   CopyBlanca: I have only one win against a grandmaster and it was the same opening...exchange of the Spanish Game (Ruy Lopez). It was against Peter Biyasis in the 1970's and also a simul. Game went in a similar direction and Peter offered a draw which I should have accepted but being a jerk I      Apr-24-20 Khismatullin vs S Sjugirov, 2009    CopyBlanca: I came up with 37 N takes pawn on D6. I think that is pretty good too. as the threat of mate with a B-H6 lurking a few moves down gives black a lot of problems.      Dec-07-19 Pachman vs Bronstein, 1946    CopyBlanca: The pun is on the video game PAC MAN that was one of the first video games and very popular. Pac Man was always being chased by GHOSTS in the video as he maneuvered around the maze.      Apr-24-19 Yanofsky vs Fischer, 1962    CopyBlanca: Why even bother talking about Karpov in the same breath as Fischer. Karpov is not even one of the top ten players of all time. Fischer is never rated lower than third by anyone.      Mar-30-19 Fischer vs E Mednis, 1957    CopyBlanca: Greatest ever definitely. This game played when he was 15 or 16.
