Jan-13-22 Caruana vs Nepomniachtchi, 2021
| |
| DaltriDiluvi: This game made me lose some of my respect for Caruana. I hope he had some excuse for playing like this. If you don't want to play chess, at least do it properly: Play 1.e4 and offer a draw immediately. |

| DaltriDiluvi: After <15...Nc6> there are no games left in the Opening Explorer. The "last game standing" was this one (which features a knight sacrifice on move 16): K Arakhamia-Grant vs B Yildiz, 2010 |

Nov-27-21 M Gruender vs A Anarkulov, 2004
| |
| DaltriDiluvi: This seems like a rather early resignation by White even though he's probably losing. (I have not checked the game with a computer.) |
