Feb-19-10 Topalov vs Grischuk, 2010 
| |
| Stavrogin: patzer2: Good post on the human aspects of this game. Personally I m always - when watching chess - hoping for this kind of game; where it is all about the fight, not just preparation and cold calculation. |

Oct-03-05 FIDE World Championship Tournament (2005)
| |
| Stavrogin: Maybe true. But personally I think his new style (more aggressive) is getting put together properly by now. Do not count the World Champion out just yet. The next man that chjallenges for the title might just get crushed... |

Oct-03-05 Svidler vs Topalov, 2005
| |
| Stavrogin: Agree. Topalov is the man right now.
And I hope he wins, I am just not so certain as some people seem to be. With Morozevich trailing bad my hope for a dynamicplaying winner of the torunament stands to Topa. |

Nov-24-04 Russian Championship Superfinal (2004)
| |
| Stavrogin: Just came back.
I can see my analysis at move 13 turned out to be right on. Kasparov obviously shared my opinions.
The f6-push came as I predicted.
The c-line-battle shaped the battle for quite some time, as did the d4/centre-struggle.
This is a good game. As I said, I ... |
