   Dec-30-07 Reshevsky vs Tal, 1970 (replies)
 
Seraphina: Ah, Tal... thank goodness there were no computers around in his day to take away the dash... That's perhaps why the preparation wasn't so great. Luzhin's Defence... originally a book, The Defense by Vladimir Nabokov. I found the film to be utter rubbish from beginning to end, ...
 
   Apr-24-07 G Negyesy vs K Honfi, 1955 (replies)
 
Seraphina: <rover> Absolutely right. I missed that little detail.... Thanks
 
   Apr-19-07 C H Alexander vs Z Milev, 1954 (replies)
 
Seraphina: Yes Black could plug away at it.... but probably got depressed. Ke7, 11. qxd8 Kxd8, 12. Bg5 Be7 13. 0-0-0+ followed by Re1 Black is a pawn down with one isolated pawn and his position is tied up in knots. Not really a fun game..... White could also bring the B back to d5 on move ...
 
   Dec-05-06 Deep Fritz vs Kramnik, 2006 (replies)
 
Seraphina: If that continues, Rocafella, your floppy disc might not stay floppy...
 
   Dec-03-06 Kramnik vs Deep Fritz, 2006 (replies)
 
Seraphina: Such a game, Roca, would be ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...............
 
   Nov-25-06 Kramnik vs Deep Fritz, 2006 (replies)
 
Seraphina: Sorry if I ask, but has he been going to the bathroom much.... Kramnik, I mean?
 
   Jun-19-06 L Christiansen vs J Hickl, 1998 (replies)
 
Seraphina: <Frenchfrog> It's not really what the Pirc is about. A counter thrust on the Qside is more in spirit with the opening, I'd say: c5. Hickl in fact played the whole opening passively (b6 is also kind of a waste), and invites the full attack with 12...dxe5, freeing the e3 ...
 
   Jun-15-06 I Arakelov vs S Ivanov, 1995 (replies)
 
Seraphina: It seems to me that is why white resigned at this point...
 
   May-26-06 Amherst vs Williams College, 1859 (replies)
 
Seraphina: Ahhh! Amherst, home of Emily Dickinson.... And nice to see Amherst College play such a creative KG, very Steinitz-like, I'd say.... I lived in Amherst for 4 years, loved it, went to U-Mass, which is also there (any almuni around???)... For those interested, the area is called the ...
 
   Apr-30-06 G Neumann vs Dufresne, 1863 (replies)
 
Seraphina: <Emperor> just a little correction... Gustav gewinnt is the correct German alas. Alas , because the pun goes out the window.
