| Nov-03-03 | | aulero: When you see moves likes 3. f2 you should never forget that there is an "infamous" chess rule that forces to move a touched piece ... |
 |
| Nov-03-03 | | ughaibu: Kf2 is okay (tumbleweed opening) Kf3 is the problem. |
|
| Nov-03-03 | | rochade18: Kf2 is quite cool, but there are only 5 games including 3.Kf2 |
|
| Feb-08-04 | | SamusAran: This is the second worst game I have ever seen. |
|
| Feb-08-04 | | tomh72000: Lol. What is this? Some kind of amusing attempt to prove the power of the king?
<Kf2 is quite cool, but there are only 5 games including 3.Kf2> <Kf2 is okay (tumbleweed opening) Kf3 is the problem.>
I agree- Kf2 isn't to bad. Kf3 is madness ! |
|
| Feb-08-04 | | Minor Piece Activity: Yum, king walk! |
|
| Feb-08-04 | | catfriend: Why did white resign?! So he loses his queen.. so?! Big deal... He should regard it as a queen-sac and win a great game! That's what the Wizard or Super-Nezh would do! |
|
| Feb-08-04 | | Bitzovich: Was this the celebrated John Forbes Nash? ("Beautiful mind") |
|
| Mar-02-04 | | chrismiceli: Reading the book, it says that John Nashes son with Alicia went on to be a master. If this person bares any relation to John Forbes Nash, it is likely to be his son. |
|
| Jul-07-05 | | supertimchan: White had a bad mood. |
|
| Feb-18-06 | | MorphyMatt: 3. f2?? It just makes no sense. |
|
| Apr-17-06 | | Rajiv Herman Kramer: Maybe white forgot the empassant rule. |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | Whitehat1963: Nash never could have dealt with Jordan, as this game easily demonstrates, but he sure gave Kobe and the Lakers a hard time last night! |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | Runemaster: According to the database, this is the only one of the five games featuring 3.Kf2 that White lost! I presume the idea should be 4.g3 fxg3+ 5.Kg2, although in the only other game I found, Howe v Beers 1940, Black didn't immediately play 3...Qh4+. Could someone please post the links to the other games with the Tumbleweed opening - I'm curious to see how White achieves an 80% score with such a weird opening! |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | Jim Bartle: In 1979 Jordan must have been 15, while Nash was only five, so the result isn't so surprising. |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | Whitehat1963: Yeah, you're right <Jim Bartle>, Nash did play about like 5-year-old in this one, so it's not surprising. |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | Jim Bartle: And talk about stereotyping: Nash was white, Jordan black... |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | DP12: Runemaster White normally would play in this way against inferior opponents. By the way, to my eyes the best response to Qh4+ is Ke2. |
|
| Apr-24-06 | | AlexandraThess: This game explains why it is called King's Gambit, hehehee |
|
| May-06-06 | | CapablancaFan: Interesting...a guy who plays like this (Nash) ends up U.S. Chess Federation Scholastic Director! http://www.uschess.org/news/press/u... |

 | | monopole2313: What a coincidence - Jim Jordan also worked for USCF. |
|
| Apr-25-07 | | Judah: <<Runemaster>:Could someone please post the links to the other games with the Tumbleweed opening - I'm curious to see how White achieves an 80% score with such a weird opening!> J Fort vs W Campbell, 1913
H Howe vs W Beers, 1940
D Rigby vs J Moylan, 1976
J Chiarelli vs D Jennings, 1979 |
|
| Nov-01-09 | | TheTamale: The king is a fighting piece! Unfortunately, he's not a very good fighter... |
|
| Nov-01-09 | | YoungEd: The Nash Rambler crashes. |
|
| Sep-02-11 | | joshuap: 1.e4 e5 2.f4 exf4 3.Kf2? No wonder I've never haerd of the tumbleweed. Maybe white accidentally toutched his king. 3...Qh4+ 4.Kf3?? This just plain loses. Maybee white accidentally moed his king To f3 also! That would be a very unlucky coicedence! Honestly, I think Kf3 was just an unfortunate blunder. 4...Qh5+ and black wins. |
