Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-10-03   Rookpawn: Towards the end, White's Rooks coordinate beautifully to support the passed pawn, defend against Black's Rooks, keep the enemy King out of action, and win the opponent's pawns.
Mar-10-03   ughaibu: Great. Wasn't Gossip the guy who was famous for scoring zero points in a tournament or two?
Jan-12-09   sillybilly47: Gossip, big fish in a small pond. Played well at home in Australia. White played the opening in a slipshod manner. Baird was badly outplayed after the opening.
