Nov-26-18 Caruana vs Carlsen, 2018    Severin: Unimaginable that Carlsen drew here. Up thirty minutes, 9 moves from the time control. A position that anyone can see is superior, albeit not yet decisively so. The final game of an even championship match. And you decide to draw the game? He didn't even pretend to care about the ...      Nov-26-18 Carlsen - Caruana World Championship Match (2018)    Severin: When two classical world championships in a row are decided by rapid games, that championship is no longer legitimate. When a world champion gives up as his opponent has 8 minutes to make 9 moves and his position is stifling, he is no champion. I've never been angrier about the ...      Jun-03-18 So vs Carlsen, 2018    Severin: 16. ... Nxa3 is the kind of error Carlsen's opponents usually make. Small positional disadvantages that add up over the game. 22. ...e5 is kind of a clever trick to simplify the position, but not one a GM would fall for. Wesley doesn't have to take the pawn right away, and then it ...      Apr-23-18 Carlsen vs Wojtaszek, 2018    Severin: 17. Nd5 is a very cool sac/computer line that can initiate a killing attack. 17. ... exd5 18. exd5 kf8 19. dxc6 if 18. ... Nd8 19. Bg4 Rb8 20. Qd3 Rh6 21. Bxg7 Rg6 22. f5 Rxg7 23. f6 Rxg4 24. Rxe7, and black loses the Queen. Really complicated and a lot of variations (altho white      Mar-26-18 World Championship Candidates (2018)    Severin: Wow, one more round and 3 guys are still fighting for first. Definitely the most exciting tournament in a while. Can't see anyone beating Magnus, but I definitely think Caruana deserves the shot the most. Karjakin was the one I wanted to win the least, so this is a good day.      Mar-16-18 Caruana vs Grischuk, 2018    Severin: Magnus would never offer draw here. That's why he's the champion.      Jan-27-18 G Jones vs Mamedyarov, 2018    Severin: This proves Mamedyarov will go nowhere in the candidates, despite the increase in his rating. Champions don't just roll over when they could win a tournament.      Jan-24-18 A Tate vs Nakamura, 2018    Severin: Well that was something      Dec-10-17 Carlsen vs Nepomniachtchi, 2017    Severin: 25. Bxh6 wasn't all that hard, and especially should have been easy for Magnus. And then the whole sequence following 31. Nc6 ruined him. Really not his year. He keeps missing tactics and getting into lost positions.      Dec-04-17 Aronian vs Karjakin, 2017    Severin: Karjakin channeling the spirit of Anish Giri in this masterpiece      Dec-03-17 So vs Nepomniachtchi, 2017     Nov-30-17 M Sedayao vs G Boyd, 1975    Nov-20-17 Vachier-Lagrave vs Nakamura, 2017     Nov-19-17 D Andreikin vs Kramnik, 2017    Nov-16-17 FIDE Grand Prix Mallorca (2017)     Nov-05-17 Ding Liren vs So, 2017    Nov-04-17 Leko vs Giri, 2017    Nov-01-17 Giri vs Lupulescu, 2017     Sep-01-15 V Gunina vs Ju Wenjun, 2013     Aug-30-15 Anand vs So, 2015     Aug-30-15 Tomashevsky vs I Khairullin, 2015     Aug-30-15 So vs Nakamura, 2015     Aug-29-15 Grischuk vs Caruana, 2015     Aug-26-15 Sinquefield Cup (2015)     Aug-25-15 Carlsen vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2015     Jul-10-15 Wang Chen vs Wei Yi, 2015     Jul-04-15 Jonny (Computer)     Jul-02-15 Dortmund Sparkassen (2015)     Jun-30-15 So vs Naiditsch, 2015     Jun-30-15 Nisipeanu vs Y Hou, 2015     Jun-28-15 Y Hou vs Kramnik, 2015     Jun-27-15 G Meier vs Y Hou, 2015     Jun-26-15 Norway Chess (2015)     Jun-25-15 Topalov vs Anand, 2015     Jun-23-15 Grischuk vs Topalov, 2015     Jun-21-15 Aronian vs Caruana, 2015     Jun-18-15 Vachier-Lagrave vs Topalov, 2015     Jun-17-15 Vachier-Lagrave vs Aronian, 2015     Jun-17-15 Caruana vs Carlsen, 2015     Jun-16-15 Anand vs Caruana, 2015    Mar-01-15 M Lahav vs D Dvirnyy, 2015     Feb-26-15 FIDE Grand Prix Tbilisi (2015)     Feb-18-15 Zurich Chess Challenge (2015)     Feb-17-15 Tomashevsky vs Grischuk, 2015     Feb-17-15 Anand vs Nakamura, 2015     Feb-09-15 Moscow Open (2015)     Feb-09-15 Carlsen vs Bacrot, 2015     Feb-07-15 D Baramidze vs Naiditsch, 2015     Feb-06-15 GRENKE Chess Classic (2015)     Feb-05-15 D Baramidze vs Aronian, 2015     Feb-04-15 Naiditsch vs Carlsen, 2015     Feb-04-15 Topalov vs Wei Yi, 2015    Feb-03-15 Carlsen vs Adams, 2015     Jan-31-15 Gibraltar Masters (2015)     Jan-31-15 D Anton Guijarro vs Topalov, 2015    Jan-31-15 Harikrishna vs I Chirila, 2015     Jan-31-15 Wei Yi     Jan-30-15 Wei Yi vs A L Muthaiah, 2014    Jan-30-15 Wei Yi vs Ju Wenjun, 2015     Jan-28-15 Badrakh Galmandakh     Jan-27-15 Monika Socko     Jan-27-15 B Galmandakh vs Motylev, 2015     Jan-27-15 Y Hou vs H J Cordes, 2015     Jan-26-15 Carlsen vs Y Hou, 2015     Jan-26-15 Tata Steel Masters (2015)     Jan-25-15 Polgar vs Kasparov, 2002     Jan-25-15 Russia - The Rest of the World (2002)     Jan-24-15 Wei Yi vs A Haast, 2015     Jan-24-15 Y Hou vs Jobava, 2015     Jan-24-15 Tata Steel Challengers (2015)     Jan-21-15 Van Wely vs Y Hou, 2015     Jan-18-15 Y Hou vs Aronian, 2015     Jan-13-15 Wei Yi vs V Gunina, 2015     Jan-12-15 A R Saleh Salem vs Sevian, 2015    Jan-12-15 Saric vs Y Hou, 2015     Jan-09-15 Robert Gwaze     Jan-05-15 Hastings (2014/15)     Jan-05-15 Kramnik vs Kosteniuk, 2014    Jan-04-15 Matulovic vs M Ujtelky, 1963     Jan-03-15 Menchik vs A Becker, 1929     Jan-03-15 Karlsbad (1929)     Jan-02-15 Vidmar vs Marshall, 1927     Jan-01-15 F Duz-Khotimirsky vs Marshall, 1907    Dec-21-14 Viswanathan Anand     Nov-06-14 Petrosian Memorial (2014)     Oct-24-14 Wesley So     Oct-22-14 FIDE Grand Prix Tashkent (2014)
