Jul-08-05		Knight13: 17... Bxh3?! seems to be a mistake, man. 18. Bf4! killed it. 48. a4! a good move, man. It's like the goody ol' best move played in the engame, man. Good game.

Jul-08-05		yoozum: Lol, why are you using "man" so much? Keep it up, it sounds cool.

Jul-08-05		fgh: Man, I like this game, yeah man. Good play by Leko mean man meat mate. lol :-)

Jul-08-05		rexeterna: Man. You guys are rough on that man.

Jul-08-05		Montreal1666: What he means to say is that: "Leko is the MAN"

Jul-08-05		ChessMan94: Seems like 48... Kf6 was a mistake. It allowed Leko to fork with 49.Nd5+ Is 48... Kg6 better?

Jul-09-05		mynameisrandy: <rexeterna>, heh, I wouldn't worry about it too much. :) I think it's becoming pretty obvious that Kinght13 is just winding everyone up.

Jul-09-05		vonKrolock: <Knight13> I believe that uncle Loek saw the <18.f4> trick: he wins three s for a piece, what is usually considered a fair trade... I found suspicious the <23...f5> stuff, because Leko takes en passant and plays g4 winning the in 'h6' - was this line forced?!

Jul-10-05		lostemperor: <Knight13> Dang, have you considered comentating boxing or perhaps football?

Jul-10-05		aw1988: What's even more annoying than having to ignore Knight13 is hearing about him when I can't see his messages.

Jul-10-05		mymt: Dont like that 23. ...f5 either.Maybe ...Ne6 or ...g5 to keep the Kside pawn majority?

Jul-11-05		Rocafella: <aw1988> LOL

Jul-15-05		Knight13: <<Knight13> Dang, have you considered comentating boxing or perhaps football?> Uh... No.

Aug-07-05		Rocafella: <Knight13> Good! Btw <lostemperor> was actually joking :-)

Sep-08-05		iron maiden: <ChessMan94> It's really no better; after 49. Nd5 the b-pawn is doomed regardless.

Aug-31-07		Mateo: 23...f5? was just a huge blunder. After 24.exf6, Van Wely could resign.
