Mar-05-05		Drstrangelove: nevermind

Mar-05-05		Ulhumbrus: I take back the last comment: white has a pawn on b4 already, making Qd5 possible

Mar-05-05		yoozum: Lol, and Kasparov wins the g pawn. Wow.

Mar-05-05		Helloween: Vallejo just resigned. Nice win for Kasparov. See you guys later. I'm going to go drink the strongest cup of cafe sua da I've ever made.

Mar-05-05		rootamus: 52. b5 Qe5 54. b6 Qd6 55. Qb7+ Qd7 56. Qa7!

Mar-05-05		yoozum: 1-0 FINALLY

Mar-05-05		Backward Development: 1-0 on playchess.com!!! Is it official!! Dancing Rook?

Mar-05-05		Stevens: Just arrived to see him resign! 1-0!!

Mar-05-05		atyrau: According to Shipov Kasparov should definitely win this game, he says, "The end is near".

Mar-05-05		yoozum: Enter the dancing rook.

Mar-05-05		nikolaas: It is official.

Mar-05-05		nosh: There goes the g4 pawn...

Mar-05-05		flamboyant: well, who's gonna stop Garry?!

Mar-05-05		nikolaas: Qg5 and 1-0 is the official version.

Mar-05-05		hintza: Come on Dancing Rook! Let's be having you!

Mar-05-05		RayMaynard: Maybe Kasparov should play blindfold from now on to give Vallejo a chance

Mar-05-05		catfriend: Congrtulations Kasparov!!!

Mar-05-05		Ulhumbrus: Vallego is lost. Either he loses his g4 pawn without compensation or else he consents to a losing exchange of queens

Mar-05-05		nikolaas: <flamboyant> Nobody is.

Mar-05-05		atyrau: now his lead is almost unsurmountable.

Mar-05-05		Backward Development: Vallejo resigned after 54.Qg5+
