porgue has kibitzed 74 times to chessgames   [more...]

Jun-28-09 A Wojtkiewicz vs B Asanov, 1980   porgue: szajjbus: Can anyone explain why Wojtkiewicz played 16.e5 and why not 16. ... dxe5? I think the idea is 17.Nb3 when the black rook has to retreat thanks to the threat of g5 removing the defender of d7. After 17...Rc7 18.g5,18.Nc5, 18.Nb5 all seem crushing. Hope that was helpful      May-28-09 Y Drozdovskij vs Naiditsch, 2009    porgue: play on!      May-04-09 H Aturupane vs Anand, 1986    porgue: The main reason why Nc6 is more critical than nbd7 is the b4 square. many of the lines involve a knight supporting the d5 outpost via b4. also c6 is more active as it attacks d4 and controls e5. over all I believe this makes it a superior move      Apr-27-09 Kasparov vs A Donchenko, 1976    porgue: steroids      May-26-08 D Byrne vs Fischer, 1956    porgue: 41. . . .Ba3 is also mate (:P)      Apr-23-08 L Schmid vs K Gumprich, 1950    porgue: wow.... very little kibitzing at already 4:06 eastern time      Mar-24-08 W T Mayfield vs W R Trinks, 1959    porgue: <offramp: I would call this opening the <Dutch, Extended Leningrad Fianchetto Defence.>> I would call it the <Black Should Quit Chess Forever Defence.>      Mar-19-08 So vs M Mahjoob, 2007    porgue: <<Kangaroo: The continuation <[after 20. ... exf5] > might be: <21. Qb3+ Kh8 22. Ndf7+ Kh8 23. Nh6++ <[double check!] > Kh8 24. Ngf7+> and Black will have to give up a queen for knight.> ... with mate to follow quickly, e.g., 24. ... Qxf7 25. Nxf7+ Kg8 26. ...      Mar-18-08 Seirawan vs J Xu, 1988    porgue: <Arsovic...what a brilliant surname!> Imre Lovass why did seirawan play on after move 180? was he trying to be an ass or something      Mar-18-08 J Hohmeister vs T Frank, 1993    porgue: black could have pissed white off by playing <10. ...Qxg3+!!>
