May-20-23 R H Newman vs Tolush, 1947    roberts partner: Incorrect, the 'radio match' was in 1946. The 1947 match was played over the board in Holborn Town Hall, where I happened to be the wallboard operator for the Newman v Tolush and Abrahams v Bronstein pairings......      Apr-23-22 L Barden vs W Adams, 1950    roberts partner: Phony Benoni: The book was Simple Chess, mailed to me by a friend in New York. although the Two Knights analysis was identical to that in White to Play and Win. At the end of our game I showed Weaver my copy, and asked him to autograph it. He did so, then he turned up the ...      Mar-15-22 Leonard Barden    roberts partner: Sorry, <Nosnibor>!      Feb-27-22 Fischer vs Tal, 1960    roberts partner: That 365Chess file doesn't include Julius Szabo's games at Leipzig, but those games can all be found on Olimpbase.      Jun-09-21 Hastings (1960/61)    roberts partner: <MissScarlett>How did L. W. Barden qualify to play in this event? Apart from Cafferty and Green, all the other eight players were invitees. That was normal at Hastings over many decades, just the one qualfying place for the winner of the Premier Reserves Major (later ...      Jun-05-20 Oliver Penrose    roberts partner: There wasn't any 'Cambridge Open 1952'. The game was played at Cambridge BUCA 1950.      Jun-01-20 Anthony Henry Knight    roberts partner: That sounds a correct identification. My mental picture of AH Knight from those two Southsea tournaments is that he was a small, slight man with dark hair, polite and correct to his opponents, and a chain smoker. Britbase has an additional game from Southsea 1949 where ...      May-02-20 Magnus Carlsen Invitational (2020)    roberts partner: <This event's been sucking up all the oxygen of publicity. Haven't seen a single mention yet of the <FIDE Chess.com Online Nations Cup> https://www.theguardian.com/world/2... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2...      Mar-08-20 NN vs B Goulding Brown, 1912    roberts partner: I am now reliably informed that the game ('A friendly game at Cambridge University CC won by B Goulding Brown') was first published on page 558 of the March 1912 Chess Amateur. I have seen a photocopy of the actual page. Therefore the game was played in 1912 at the latest, ...      Mar-04-20 Otto Friedman   roberts partner: That's Otto Friedman for sure at London 1946. I played him many times in blitz and in tournament games. Some reports misspelt his name. Tall, bald, with remnants of ginger hair and a deep booming voice. A bit pedantic but an intelligent and well educated man.      Feb-27-20 Tolush vs J C Thompson, 1954     Oct-11-19 Eltaj Safarli    Oct-06-19 Holman Linnell Brooke     Aug-04-19 Henry Ernest Atkins     Jun-27-19 Spassky vs Hodgson, 1979     Jun-05-19 Jacques Mieses     Jun-04-19 Francis Ernest Appleyard Kitto    May-28-19 Edgar George R Cordingley    May-02-19 Paul Keres     Sep-17-18 Stefan Fazekas     Jul-07-18 B Kurajica vs J T Farrand, 1973     Jun-23-18 Vasiukov vs Aronin, 1954     Mar-16-18 Gerald Ellis    Oct-29-17 Euwe vs J Penrose, 1960     Aug-05-17 T Wall vs S N Longson, 2017     Mar-04-17 Klaus Junge     Feb-26-17 Wei Yi     Dec-13-16 Vladimir Petrov     Dec-12-16 L Barden vs Rossolimo, 1950     Dec-11-16 Biographer Bistro     Aug-06-16 Michael Adams     May-28-16 Giri vs Karjakin, 2016     Sep-06-14 Korchnoi vs Short, 1976     Jun-22-14 World Blitz Championship (2014)     Dec-22-13 V Ciocaltea vs J Kozma, 1963     Mar-04-13 L Barden vs C Rivera, 1954     Feb-02-13 L Barden vs Golombek, 1951    Mar-13-12 D E Rumens vs J C Benjamin, 1976     Dec-30-11 E Pritchard vs J Hempel, 1967     Dec-19-11 R J Gross vs J Bolton, 1955     Nov-13-11 Frederick Forrest Lawrie Alexander     Nov-05-11 Andrija Fuderer     Apr-09-11 Gordon Thomas Crown     Sep-18-10 Bent Larsen     Jun-25-10 Arturo Pomar Salamanca     Mar-30-10 Vasily Smyslov     Mar-13-10 Paul Morphy     Jan-23-10 Corus Group A (2010)     Sep-26-09 Nigel Short     Sep-22-09 Pirc vs Lilienthal, 1935    Aug-04-09 J Hawkins vs R Palliser, 2009     Jul-06-09 J Stopa vs Benjamin, 2009     Jun-24-09 C Kottnauer vs BBC listeners, 1960     May-14-09 Fischer vs J H Donner, 1962     Apr-12-09 L Barden vs J Penrose, 1959     Apr-11-09 William Hartston     Mar-29-09 T Chapman vs F Aleskerov, 2009    Feb-23-09 Aeroflot Open (2009)     Dec-13-08 David Howell     Aug-14-08 World Junior Championship (2008)     Jan-13-08 Elaine Saunders Pritchard     Jan-05-08 Hastings (2007/08)     Mar-31-07 Alekhine vs A Munoz, 1945     Feb-03-07 Thomas E Rendle     Feb-02-07 Veselin Topalov     Dec-07-06 David Bronstein     Nov-19-06 Raymond Keene
