Feb-08-06		Kratboud: nice knight movements around move 30!

Feb-09-06		Chnebelgrind: Thanks Volokitin! I delight in every debacle of this oafish opening. I think much of Karjakin but he should refrain from this queenless games putatively avouching a draw. At Aeroflot Open (2006) Stefansson just now suffered another defeat in this opening against Dmitry Jakovenko

Feb-09-06		Mateo: Very interesting ending, and nice win for Volokitin. As 35... Ke8? leads to a quiet easy win for White, I guess Black should have tried 35... Ke7. Now 36. e6 would not have been good on account of 36... Re6.

Feb-10-06		Bobak Zahmat: Well Karjakin's Berlin isn't that strong. He should perhaps ask Kramnik for lessons :), cause this looks awfull.
