Jul-17-14 Y Hou vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2014
| |
| WiseWizard: Transposed into an <ideal> Ruy Lopez for black and MVL shows model play. 23. Ng4? weakens pawns and allows black to challenge a-file with tempo. 30...Bf8-e7-d8-b6! is something to remember. I love seeing ideas like this; improving a piece and strengthening position without ... |

Mar-22-14 Viswanathan Anand
| |
| WiseWizard: <SirRuthless: Anand has played the fewest moves.> Interesting too because it could mean Anand found a way to avoid long endgames. Also, I just noticed today, Anand appears to be in his own world this tournament. He's very independent, like his opponents and the tournament ... |
