Aug-27-17 D Byrne vs Fischer, 1956    sharpnova: @john barleycorn Logged in just to say that I think that's the worst idea I've ever heard.      Jun-11-15 Fischer vs Petrosian, 1959    sharpnova: Lol. I think the average adult male human, learning the game then training for one week, could beat the best computer in the 70's.      Mar-06-15 Spassky vs Fischer, 1960    sharpnova: <M. Shaune> Your logic is airtight. You proved that Kasparov in his prime was inferior to Fischer in his prime by showing by comparisons that Kasparov long before his prime couldn't beat Fischer in his prime. Do you teach? I'd like to sign up for your class. How about that      Feb-02-15 I Ivanov vs V Zaltsman, 1983    sharpnova: <aw1988> It absolutely was not in poor taste. <Maroczy>'s unnecessarily sobering reply was what was in poor taste. A tactless comment that took your lighthearted joke which was more a celebration of this guy's life and turned it into a grim remark on his untimely ...      Jan-30-15 Short vs Shirov, 2002    sharpnova: <Refutor> First off it would be refuter. not refutor. Secondly, how can you say there isn't enough compensation? One knight for: -two pawns -king off balance and can't castle easily and even then it's a manual castle -strong center -open diagonals for bishop vs ...      Jan-24-15 Onischuk vs G Vescovi, 2002    sharpnova: <MostlyAverageJoe> 15..h6 was the mistake. It was not part of opening theory and isn't in any database other than being listed for the two games in which it was played, mistakenly. Once by Vescovi, who was punished by Oniscuk's brilliant, correct, and winning reply. And ...      Jan-24-15 Stany vs B Adhiban, 2012   sharpnova: A rarity in that the Marshall Attack is played correctly, eschewing established theory which would suggest moves other than 15. Qe2. But 20. Bxd5 was an inaccuracy. Maybe even a mistake as 20. a4 is a difficult but provable win and 20. Bxd5 is most likely a draw.      Dec-14-14 Kasparov vs Topalov, 1999    sharpnova: @Sally Simpson You sound like a religious nut. I think this conversation is past any possibility of being constructive. If you hate statistics then get gone because it's far more relevant to this issue than you have any idea of.      Oct-29-14 F B Arnold vs M L Hanauer, 1936    sharpnova: @Zaius - How so? I've seen people mated or at least really decisively punished for taking as little as a pawn. Taking a whole queen for mate is less greedy than that.      Oct-26-14 I Krush vs J Estrada Nieto, 2001   sharpnova: an elegant and instructive kingside attack      Sep-07-09 Dana Reizniece-Ozola     Aug-12-08 Rybka vs Nakamura, 2008     Aug-01-08 Magnus Carlsen     Jul-24-08 Kramnik vs Carlsen, 2008     Jul-19-08 Crafty vs Rybka, 2006     Jul-19-08 Rybka vs Crafty, 2007     Jul-19-08 Nakamura vs Rybka, 2007     Jun-27-08 Grigor Minchev     Jul-09-07 The World vs G Timmerman, 2007     Apr-12-07 V Malakhov vs Areshchenko, 2005     Apr-01-07 Topalov vs Morozevich, 2007     Mar-15-07 Alekhine vs Hoelscher, 1933     Feb-27-07 Spike (Computer)     Feb-27-07 Leko vs Anand, 2007     Feb-05-07 Veselin Topalov     Jan-14-07 The World vs A Nickel, 2006     Jan-10-07 dalbertz chessforum     Dec-20-06 Kramnik - Deep Fritz (2006)     Dec-20-06 Polgar vs Kasparov, 2006     Nov-20-06 Ponomariov vs Leko, 2006     Nov-18-06 Portisch vs Keres, 1969     Nov-16-06 S Conquest vs I Morovic Fernandez, 1996     Nov-07-06 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)     Nov-04-06 V Zurakhov vs A Zamikhovsky, 1959    Oct-28-06 Topalov vs Polgar, 2006     Oct-24-06 Polgar vs Topalov, 2006     Oct-06-06 Rybka (Computer)     Oct-06-06 Kramnik vs Topalov, 2006     Sep-30-06 A Nickel vs Hydra, 2004     Aug-25-06 R Toran Albero vs O'Kelly, 1967     Aug-08-06 6th International CSVN Tournament (2006)     Jun-01-06 NN vs Tarrasch, 1915     Mar-01-06 Vladimir Kramnik     Feb-03-06 Spike vs Rybka, 2005     Dec-21-05 Zvjaginsev vs A Shariyazdanov, 2005     Dec-09-05 Kasparov vs Shirov, 2001     Dec-06-05 Hydra (Computer)     Dec-05-05 B Ivanovic vs Ftacnik, 1982     Nov-20-05 Kramnik vs Kasparov, 2001     Nov-19-05 Ivanchuk vs Kasparov, 1991     Nov-16-05 Azmaiparashvili vs Shirov, 1990     Nov-14-05 Vasily Smyslov     Nov-10-05 John Nunn     Nov-09-05 L Christiansen vs V Kovacevic, 1990     Nov-09-05 Vladimir Kovacevic     Nov-08-05 J Murey vs E Mortensen, 1982     Nov-08-05 Ed.
