uscfratingmybyear has kibitzed 301 times to chessgames   [more...]

Sep-21-12 Nakamura vs Gelfand, 2012    uscfratingmybyear: Seems like Black is set to play g5 but will he gut it up and do it.      Sep-10-12 Levon Aronian    uscfratingmybyear: I found it quite telling that while watching the live Olympiad games on Chessbomb there were various kibitzers who found some GM moves weak and stupid by using the computer sidebar evaluations yet were clueless when the computer went down.      Aug-29-12 Istanbul Olympiad (2012)    uscfratingmybyear: I looked at today's Nakamura game and thought somebody slipped me some Sandoz acid-it made no sense from any angle for the last 20-30 moves.
