Sonofabishop84: Morozevich did good in his round 7 game with white. g4+ with a nice mating net. I thought it was over for him in this game until he uncorked g4+. |

Sonofabishop84: Johnnie Cochrane? Not the famous lawyer I take it since it was from 1841. |

Apr-01-05 14th Amber Tournament: Rapid (2005) 
|
Sonofabishop84: I thought this Kriegspiel sounded retarded when i read it. No skill involved at all and any amateur 1200 rated player could play a superGM and win against them. Nonsense. Now it's a lame April fools joke attempt by chessbase I see. The question is, what have the boys from ... |

Sonofabishop84: What's there to debate about leko-moro? Leko knows when to punch and when to duck, moro only knows how to punch but hasn't learnt to duck. |

Jan-19-05 Short vs Morozevich, 2005 
|
Sonofabishop84: I mean it looks like Moro did absolutely ZERO in opening preperation for this major tournament. He's chewing up about an hour of time for his first 10 moves or so and is picking more "conservative" openings that, obviously, don't suit his style. He seems to be treating this ... |
