Jan-31-05		tamar: How good is Cheparinov? Corus B had a wealth of talent.

Jan-31-05		iron maiden: He's a little inconsistent from game to game and tournament to tournament. At 19, he may not have the potential of Karjakin or Carlsen, but we'll see a lot of him in the future.

Jan-31-05		themindset: this is a yugoslav attack, it transposed...

Jan-31-05		tamar: 15...Rc8 is the first new move. 15...a6 and 15...Qf6 have been tried previously.

Jan-31-05		pastpawn: I once tried 9 ... Bxg4 in a tournament game back in playing days ('83 or so) and won pretty quickly. At the time, it wasn't in any of the opening books: is it now a well-known continuation?

Jan-06-06		remilege: 11.Bg1 is a mistake. 11.Nb3 a5 12.a4 Cxe3 13.Qxe3 is the main variation

Jan-18-06		azi: I really like this game. Its the "new dragon". Black gets a good deal for his bishop. That is, 2 pawns, a long lasting initiative and attack, threats aginst the white king and winning the d4 knight. Also black made creative use of the c file with his rook. A great game. Black really takes and maintains control from move 1 to 39. The dragon still breathes fire.

Oct-17-07		The Chess Express: I like 11. Nxc6 bxc6 12. Bg5 (!) Rb8 13. Be2 h6 14. Bh4 Ne5 15. 0-0-0

Nov-29-07		kellmano: That's a truly awesome game.The position after 33.....e4 is awesome. Were it played by a proper big name, it'd be (rightly) celebrated.

Mar-24-08		The Chess Express: <kellmano:The position after 33.....e4 is awesome.> Awsome for black. White's horrible placement and boxed up side pieces let Cheparinov really shine in this game.
