Apr-01-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    Icyclemort: <Jim Bartle> Anticlimax? We approach this game differently, I think. Obviously, no great chess was played. But for spectators, these three last rounds were thrilling. I'd call this round a climax, my heart feels like it is short on time too...      Mar-31-13 Kinghunt chessforum    ...      May-19-10 Magnus Carlsen    Icyclemort: I sort of agree with slomarko’s assessment here. Anand’s team + outside helper’s probably outclassed Topalov’s team quite a bit... and that is a big help. I don‘t think that it is unfair ... though it does raise questions about what is actually being established in ...      Feb-24-10 Anish Giri    Icyclemort: Love his comments on chessbase...

It's true for all of us (almost all the time), but we never remember it while kibitzing... ;)      Jul-28-06 Carlsen vs A Volokitin, 2006    Icyclemort: < Crafty 18. ... Nd5 19. exd6 Qxd6 20. Bd2 Ne7 21. Rfe1 Nf5 (eval -1.30; depth 13 ply; 125M nodes)> Interesting, Rybka thinks it is almost equalt (-0,02 favoring Black) 18. ... Nd5 19. Re1 dxe5 20. cxd5 Qxc1 ......      Jul-27-06 L Bruzon Batista vs Carlsen, 2006    Icyclemort: Qb1+? shouldnt Carlsen have played Ke7 before (protecting against the Qxf6 threat)?
