| Illogic: Final move makes no sense |

Aug-24-20 Jeroen Piket
| |
| Illogic: Being concerned about his personal finances might have been a roundabout way of saying that Joop had offered him a huge salary. Likely he got made an offer he couldn't refuse. |

Mar-23-19 A Sharevich vs Akshita Gorti, 2019
| |
| Illogic: 64. h3 was a catastrophic move. Even allowing for missing the tactic ..Rxg2!, simply ..gxh3 for black and white is losing the pawn on c6. An otherwise very well played game spoiled, sad for Anna. |

Mar-20-19 I Krush vs Emily Nguyen, 2019
| |
| Illogic: Rxe3 is confusing at first glance. If Qxe3, the shocking winner is Qd6!! |

Feb-11-19 Kosteniuk vs B Khotenashvili, 2019
| |
| Illogic: Seems like it, but black clearly didn't want any draw, playing Qxb3 |

Feb-08-19 I Krush vs V Gunina, 2019
| |
| Illogic: Maurice Ashley asked Gunina in the interview, why the long think. She didn't really have any explanation, just that she wasn't realizing that so much time was passing. |

Jan-29-19 Vladimir Kramnik
| |
| Illogic: Short memory <Whitehat1963>, Anand had his own spells falling out of the top 10, but came back of course. As Kramnik could have, I'm sure, but he's decided he doesn't want to do it any more. Very sad! |
