Oct-05-05 Topalov vs Kasimdzhanov, 2005    mark1800: calling b4 a mistake is absurd.      Sep-29-05 Topalov vs Anand, 2005    mark1800: topalov is obviously going to win. up 2 pawns, and a patent win.      Aug-21-05 G Ravinsky vs G Ilivitsky, 1952    mark1800: A nice sacrifice, followed up by the exchange sac, opening up various mating lines. I had seen this game before in the life and games of Mikhail Tal book. Tal comments: "After the game the opinion was expressed that Ravinsky's combination could have been refuted by means of ...      Aug-19-05 Cochrane vs Staunton, 1842    mark1800: Bxd1?? what a wazzock. awful, awful play.      Jul-27-05 A Volokitin vs Carlsen, 2005    mark1800: there never were any winning chances.      Jul-18-05 J Viberg vs H Horta, 1989    mark1800: 10.Qc2? appalling move if you ask me.      Jul-18-05 J Waitzkin vs M Ashley, 1994   mark1800: hardly much point in these two chaps bothering to play each other really, with their pre-decided draws.      Jul-09-05 F Ekstrom vs Keres, 1944    mark1800: amusing pun, but not a great game. White traded into a slightly worse endgame and then totally hashed it up. I dont understand 14. Ne5; it just seems to mess up whites pawn structure.      Jul-07-05 Chigorin vs J Mortimer, 1900    mark1800: surely white just stumbled out of an initially horrible position. Not as great game on exclusively one players behalf.
