Jan-15-18 Anand vs Caruana, 2018 
|
voyager39: Crushing lesson from a guy almost twice his age! The younger generation have to force the oldies to retire. That's what Kasparov, Anand, Kramnik and co did. The youngsters now don't seem upto the task at all. |

Dec-27-14 Viswanathan Anand 
|
voyager39: Wow and thanks.
From Spassky in 1989 to Carlsen in 2014...it is 25 years of sterling performance...there is no player living or dead who can match this. The Gentleman and the Giant - he is our idol and the greatest player ever born. Chessbase published these nice reports with ... |

Nov-05-14 Carlsen - Anand World Championship Match (2014) 
|
voyager39: <jphamlore> <If Anand loses to Carlsen, I fervently hope Anand wins Candidates 2016 to show the generation(s) after him, other than Carlsen, that they just aren't good enough if they're not going to get serious about contending for a world championship> I completely ... |

Jul-07-14 Magnus Carlsen 
|
voyager39: And in passing - wonderful to see Magnus make it to the multiple crowns. Well deserved and timely. Looking forward to the WCC match.
I wish we had someone younger rise to the challenge but it appears that grandpa is still not riding into the sunset. Disappointed with the ... |

Mar-25-14 World Championship Candidates (2014) 
|
voyager39: I gave up on CG because there is far too little respect for good players. In a club, a 2500 elo player gets admired. Here legends get slaughtered without a second thought by hordes of scavenger fanboyz. It is easy to ridicule a legend, specially when he is out of form or getting ... |

voyager39: Wonderful game. Would certainly be one of the outstanding games of 2014 and perhaps even Loek van Wely's immortal! |

Nov-21-13 Anand - Carlsen World Championship Match (2013) 
|
voyager39: <Chess for life> <framsey> My vote is for Game 10 to be another blitzkrieg like today instead of a courtesy draw. -4 is no worser then -3 considering that this is a match not a tournament. |

Nov-13-13 Anand vs Carlsen, 2013 
|
voyager39: Wonderful wonderful game.
Only two masters of the highest calibre can create such a masterpiece. I still can't figure out who was winning or losing at what point of time! I like Anand for venturing out and taking risks...and surviving the Magnus juggernaut. I think Anand ... |
