 | | Richard Taylor: Great attack - do you listen to music when you play your games over!! I must try the advance v the Caro |
 |
| Feb-25-09 | | WhiteRook48: great annotation! :D |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | SamAtoms1980: Nice game tpstar, I had no idea how long you've been doing this :) Did you submit this game yourself? |

 | | tpstar: Golly, these puns are getting better all the time. ;>D This Advance Line against the Caro-Kann (e5/g4/h4/h5/f4) is a great way to overwhelm an unsuspecting opponent, albeit with some risk. I played it in the halcyon days of my youth (?!), but now I prefer the Panov-Botvinnik Attack as sharper. Note 21. Qf2 threatens 22. Nc6+ winning the Queen, and then if 28 ... exd5 29. Bxd5+! works as the Qc5 is pinned against the mate threat on a7. The finish is one of the few Double Checks in my career. <SamAtoms1980> I've been doing this before you were born. =) This was when I played First Board for the University of Michigan. |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | SugarDom: It's an exciting game and the pun is clever...
but i try to use only grandmaster's name...
If that wasn't the case, i can submit another 1000 puns just based on names... Congrats, Tpstar anyways... |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | returnoftheking: Nice attack. You must have been very young, or confident or contempteous of the opponent, with all those pawn moves..:p Btw, in addition to your analysis my computer comes up with the possible pawn sac 23..f6 and maybe ok. for black. |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | pulsar: Nice attack, <tpstar>. Congrats for the GOTD feature. :) |
 |
Oct-24-09
 | | Richard Taylor: Good game, great plan of attack an a nice finish. I lost to Caro today (partly as I didn't really have good plan - planning etc is my big weakness apart from stupidity and old age!) and I came on to see some new way to play against it...and here is an example on the front page - which I had already played over... The Panov-Bot perhaps...? |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | SamAtoms1980: <tpstar: <SamAtoms1980> I've been doing this before you were born. =)> By "this" I meant those posts with interwoven song lyrics and game moves I first saw it on the Carlsen page and got the impression that it was something you started only recently, but it looks like I was wrong |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | Bradah: It's should have been called Randy's Present. LOL. |
 |

 | | playground player: <tpstar> Wow! I like that! Sort of a Pickett's Charge that really worked. Very bold, advancing all those pawns and not castling the King. But sometimes the best defense is a good offense. |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | WhiteRook48: not a nice present |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | obientag: <tpstar> well played sir. I like it. |
 |
| Oct-24-09 | | ComboKal: An all-out pawn blitz! I love it! Dangerous having your king exposed, but your opponent can't get anything going. He tried with 23. ...Nc4, but 24.b6 and 25.Nc5 were the winning moves. |

| Oct-24-09 | | Wayne Proudlove: Interesting. |
