Sep-24-09 Viswanathan Anand
| |
| coastalferg: Does anyone know how Vishy got his hair back... Here he is thinning on the top of the head in 2005 Anand vs Leko, 2005
Then three years he has a head of hair to rival Kramnik: Kramnik vs Anand, 2008 |

Sep-04-09 R Mamedov vs M S Thejkumar, 2009
| |
| coastalferg: i agree 57.Rb6+ and the forced exchange of rooks is winning easily. black either losses the rook or the a pawn promotes. |

Apr-29-09 Akobian - Shulman Rapid Match (2009)
| |
| coastalferg: what ever happened to 1.e4? has it been established by computers that it does not give white an opening advantage? even if it has, i will continue to give morphy and fisher their due by playing it in at least half my white games :-) |

Nov-30-07 S Halkias vs I Miladinovic, 2001
| |
| coastalferg: 8...Nxc3 is a serious blunder, but white somehow misses the forcing continuation 9.Bxd8 Nxd1 10.Be7 Re8 11.Ba3 traps the knight. Of course in case of 10...Nxb2 black simply wins the exchange with Bxf8 |
