Jun-03-05		Everett: Speelman could have helped himself a bit if he got his bishop on g1 into the game, geesh! Why is he taking pawns and mixing things up with that just sitting there?

Apr-24-06		notyetagm: <Everett> Well, it was a rapid game.

Mar-18-07		I3illieJoe: 19.g3 is a mistake, for it makes white's dark-squared bishop be stuck between h2 and g1, and it also makes the rook at h1 useless. Instead, either 19.f3 , or 19. 0-0-0 looks better.

Nov-25-08		hedgeh0g: BRRRRRRRRRRRAp!!!!

Nov-25-08		sallom89: sacs everywhere, amazing aggressive young Kasparov.

Feb-16-09		DaveyL: 34. ... Ra3 would have been interesting, though Gazza was already winning by this point anyway.
