   Jul-08-25 SuperUnited Blitz Croatia (2025)
 
tonsillolith: Great performance of Carlsen, going unidefeated. I enjoyed the games
 
   Jun-14-25 Carlsen vs V S Gujrathi, 2022
 
tonsillolith: <25...Nxe4?! 26. d5!> there are many different variations, and many tactical factors that make this work out for White. The pin of the knight against the <e7> (or sometimes <d8>) rook plays a role, but there are more subtle ones, like in <26...Nxd2 27. dc6 ...
 
   Jun-11-25 Tartakower vs A Nimzowitsch, 1927
 
tonsillolith: Can't just let me persist, huh?! Well thanks, those were interesting things: the game itself, the inspiration of Nimzo from Steinitz, the connection of 'lavieren' to sailing...
 
   Jun-11-25 Ehlvest vs Karpov, 1988

   Jun-07-25 X Xu vs R Praggnanandhaa, 2025 (replies)
 
tonsillolith: <Drawngyu Xu vs Rameshbabu Praggnanandraw>
 
   May-16-25 Kenneth Rogoff (replies)
 
tonsillolith: Note well how <Rdb>, <Keyser Sore>, and the likes never actually put forward a remotely convincing case for anything. They only muddy the water and supply uninteresting ad hominem attacks, whataboutism, and yet further juvenile "sophistry". They never argue ...
 
   May-15-25 Carlsen vs Niemann, 2022
 
tonsillolith: <The Niemann Hypothesis> would be another fitting title
 
   May-05-25 Firouzja vs Carlsen, 2023
 
tonsillolith: <55...Nb3> as <agadmator> points out in a YouTube video (about another game), this is a defensive pattern that is very handy when you've a knight for defense against a queen, especially in blitz, when you'ven't much time to calculate possibilities. In the game we ...
