Halfpricemidge has kibitzed 287 times to chessgames   [less...]

May-07-11 Karjakin vs Anand, 2006    Halfpricemidge: This is more like a work of art as arjunkakar says <more like a piece of art than science>. The black pieces are all 'bottled up' and then after 21...well, the rest is history. I like this better than Kasparov's 1999 game against Topolov. However, What if White had ...      Feb-28-11 Garry Kasparov    Halfpricemidge: Yes, RJF and the creativity of his games has (like it or not) influenced all of us as well as his successors. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what if he had been born in Russia and persued chess? They would have treated him like a king! Probably would have put his face on their ...      Feb-22-11 A Kraemer vs Reti, 1928   Halfpricemidge: It would be nice to see this one played out to checkmate. Anyone with a program handy?      Feb-14-11 Robert James Fischer    Halfpricemidge: Someone should combine/superimpose pictures of Fischer's mother and the scientist Nemenyi (like they do with celebrities on the Conan O'Brien show) to show the resemblance. BTW, Brady not even mentioning '61' does evidently prove it fake.      Jan-31-11 Eric Schiller    Halfpricemidge: Eric, Nice book (7 steps) very entertaining read. Hope you're getting better healthwise.      Jan-26-11 The World vs N Pogonina, 2010    Halfpricemidge: Looks like she's going to sac the knight, then mate with her rook & queen.      Jan-10-11 Adams vs Kasparov, 2005    Halfpricemidge: Is 24.Kc1 any better...or worse?      Jan-10-11 Fischer vs M McDermott, 1964    Halfpricemidge: What would've happened if 14...Nh5 ?      Jan-07-11 Morozevich vs Navara, 2011    Halfpricemidge: Now that is top notch chess.      Dec-12-10 S Marder vs J Dlugosz, 2007    Halfpricemidge: Perhaps White should have not blocked his Queen defence with Be2, and moved 31 Be4 instead (if he wanted to threaten the black Queen.) I only guessed the first three moves.      Sep-07-10 Kenneth Rogoff     Jan-02-10 C Berczes vs M Lokander, 2009     Dec-16-09 Spielmann vs Colle, 1928     Dec-10-09 Krasenkow vs Nakamura, 2007     Dec-09-09 Edmar Mednis     Dec-08-09 M Brichinova vs E Alexandrova, 1979     Dec-06-09 Nunn vs Hebden, 1979     Nov-17-09 Mackenzie vs Steinitz, 1883     Nov-13-09 L Milman vs J Fang, 2005     Nov-08-09 Macieja vs Ponomariov, 1997     Aug-03-09 Maria Manakova     Jul-31-09 Z Sturua vs Xu Jun, 2000     Jul-31-09 Antoaneta Stefanova     Jul-28-09 Alexandra Kosteniuk     Jul-02-09 Tatiana Kosintseva     Jun-22-08 Aerosvit (2008)     May-07-08 M Dutreeuw vs O Salmensuu, 2001    Apr-12-08 O Foisor vs Smagin, 1991     Apr-06-08 Vladimirov vs Van der Sterren, 1990     Jan-24-08 Fischer vs Spassky, 1992     Jan-16-08 Bareev vs Kupreichik, 1990     Jan-10-08 Fischer vs J Sherwin, 1957     Dec-26-07 Larsen vs Spassky, 1970     Dec-07-07 R Byrne vs Fischer, 1963     Nov-30-07 Beliavsky vs Kupreichik, 1973     Sep-14-07 H R Herndl vs Skembris, 1987     Jun-28-07 A A R Afifi vs Beliavsky, 1985     Jun-20-07 Tal vs Sviridov, 1969     Jun-17-07 Tal vs Van der Wiel, 1982     Jun-11-07 Paulsen vs Morphy, 1857     Jun-11-07 Paulsen vs Morphy, 1857     Jun-06-07 Topalov vs Bareev, 1994     Jun-06-07 Dreev vs Piket, 1996     May-17-07 Morphy vs A Bottin, 1858     May-14-07 T C Fox vs Timman, 1970     Oct-10-06 Karpov vs Beliavsky, 1994     Aug-06-06 T Zoltek vs W Teerapabpaisit, 2004     Jun-12-06 Botvinnik vs Portisch, 1968     Jun-09-06 Bondarevsky vs Botvinnik, 1941     Jun-20-05 Keres vs V Rootare, 1942     Jun-17-05 Zukertort vs NN, 1877     Apr-27-05 Anderssen vs Mayet, 1867     Apr-14-05 Tal vs Simagin, 1956     Mar-25-05 B Kurz vs K Treybal, 1904     Mar-04-05 Elisabeth Paehtz     Feb-23-05 Haba vs J Lechtynsky, 2005     Feb-22-05 Ed.
