Dec-10-14 Petrosian vs Keres, 1953    Gazman5: Was going through this game from David Bronstein's tournament book, and was puzzled why White opted for 28.Nd3 when 28.Bxe6+ Kxe6 29.Rxc8 would've regained the pawn, activated the Rook and still retained ideas of Nd3. I can only assume perhaps he was concerned about Black shifting ...      Oct-28-14 Baadur Jobava    Gazman5: Really enjoying his playing style at Tashkent and how he's playing against MVL at the moment. He's created an interesting unbalanced position having given up his bishop for 3 pawns and weakened his opponent's king. White may still have an edge but it feels like he has really good ...      Mar-31-14 Levon Aronian    Gazman5: He's a shoe-in to qulaify for the next Candidates tournament on rating and still has a lot of good years ahead of him. What is slightly more in question is whether he will ever again be such a huge pre-tournament favourite to become the eventual challenger as he was this time ...      Mar-18-14 World Championship Candidates (2014)    Gazman5: Levon just got drawn into playing 22...g5 and 23...b5 in quick succession. When he did that against Peter Svidler in the last candidates it didn't turn out so well. A possible repeat on the cards?      Nov-18-13 Anand vs Carlsen, 2013    Gazman5: <waustad> Thanks, that makes sense.      Oct-15-13 V Malaniuk vs Oll, 1987   Gazman5: Clearly white was dissatisfied with 12.Rb3, winning Black's queen and the game in light of 12...Qa4 13.Bb5+ or 12...Qa2 13.Qc1 with the unstoppable 14.Ra3 to follow.      Sep-05-13 Emory Tate    Gazman5: <nescio> Thanks, much appreciated!      Aug-15-13 Aleksandr Shimanov    Gazman5: Nice to see a 1.d4 player break out the Kings Gambit against Gata Kamsky when he needs a win. From the looks of it Gata was completely taken by surprise and he's gained a clear opening advantage, it's a question of whether he has the technique to make anything of it against black's ...      Mar-18-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    Gazman5: Ivanchuk has tried to be creative in his 2 losses which I have a lot of respect for. In the press conference he gave the appearance of a wounded lion, a creature that can be very dangerous. He has Black against Gelfand after the rest day and I think Boris should be quite nervous ...      Mar-16-13 Radjabov vs Ivanchuk, 2013    Gazman5: From what I could see just off to the side of the board it seemed like Vassily didn't realise how short of time he was. When Radjabov played a move (I think it was 32.Qa5)and hit the clock with him still needing to make 9 moves in 20s to reach the control, he started writing the ...      Mar-16-13 Carlsen vs Kramnik, 2013     Mar-15-13 Aronian vs Carlsen, 2013     Nov-01-10 Kibitzer's Café     Jan-18-08 Robert James Fischer     Jan-19-07 Radjabov vs Ponomariov, 2007     Oct-12-06 Kramnik vs Topalov, 2006     Oct-05-06 Kramnik vs Topalov, 2006     Oct-01-06 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)     Mar-20-06 Caro-Kann (B10)     Mar-17-06 T Reilly vs G West, 1995     Jan-28-06 Gata Kamsky     Jan-26-06 Caro-Kann, Classical (B19)     Jan-26-06 Caro-Kann, Classical (B18)     Oct-13-05 Kasimdzhanov vs Topalov, 2005     Oct-04-05 Polgar vs Topalov, 2005     Sep-30-05 Morozevich vs Topalov, 2005     Sep-30-05 FIDE World Championship Tournament (2005)     Sep-28-05 Polgar vs Anand, 2005     Sep-25-05 Hikaru Nakamura     Sep-23-05 Sicilian, Najdorf (B90)     Sep-23-05 R Byrne vs Fischer, 1971     Sep-23-05 J Mieses vs A Schottlaender, 1892     Sep-23-05 French Defense (C00)     Sep-22-05 King's Knight Opening (C40)     Sep-22-05 R Matoewi vs P van Hoolandt, 2004     Sep-22-05 Capablanca Chess Club vs J Corzo, 1911     Sep-22-05 Caro-Kann, Two Knights, 3...Bg4 (B11)     Sep-22-05 A Volokitin vs Nakamura, 2005     Sep-22-05 Nakamura vs A Volokitin, 2005     Sep-19-05 D Sahovic vs Matulovic, 1969     Sep-14-05 Pentala Harikrishna     Sep-09-05 Portisch vs B Berger, 1964     Sep-07-05 Ivkov vs A Kolarov, 1957     Sep-02-05 Mayet vs Anderssen, 1855     Sep-02-05 Morphy vs NN, 1858     Sep-02-05 Marshall vs E McCormick, 1938     Sep-02-05 Queen's Pawn Game (D00)     Sep-02-05 E Walther vs Tal, 1959     Sep-01-05 Caro-Kann Defense (B12)     Jun-23-05 Hydra vs Adams, 2005     Jun-22-05 Adams vs Hydra, 2005     Jun-22-05 Hydra vs Adams, 2005     Jun-17-05 G Minchev vs A Turzo, 2004     Jun-17-05 Shirov vs Grischuk, 2002    Jun-16-05 Speelman vs K Shovel, 1984     Jun-10-05 Rozentalis vs D Money, 1999     Jun-10-05 L J Cannon vs E A Greig, 1949     Jun-10-05 J Readey vs Ehlvest, 1994    Jun-10-05 Alekhine vs G W Champion, 1920     Jun-10-05 I Frog vs Smyslov, 1995     Jun-10-05 B Beard vs D Burk, 1979    Jun-06-05 Aleksi Reunanen    Mar-10-05 Garry Kasparov     Mar-10-05 Topalov vs Kasparov, 2005     Mar-08-05 Adams vs Kasparov, 2005     Mar-04-05 Kasimdzhanov vs Kasparov, 2005
