| gazzawhite: <Bobsterman3000: This draw makes no sense, there was still a lot of play left in this position :-)> Hehe, very funny. Pity the 50 move rule, eh? |

| Gregor Samsa Mendel: <Granny O Doul> I strongly disagree. 224 ...c4 needlessly prolonged the game by almost 30 moves. Had Nakamura continued shuttling his king back and forth, the 50-move rule would have been reached at move 248. Rybka was obviously too chicken to play d4. |

| vikinx: If you think this game is strange, look at this game:Rybka vs Nakamura, 2008
This game shows a ending with five bishops!!!!! |

| timhortons: nakamura did mate one international master using 6 knights, he didnt think nakamura would make it in a very few seconds. Jayhawker owner of rybka account at icc once pose a question if any human would agree that nakamura would mate him using many pieces of knights and i answer there is. |

| WhiteRook48: Whoa. So THIS is the longest game ever instead. |
|
| Jan-01-09 |
| WhiteRook48: 275 moves long. A definite illegal game- this cannot be possible. and still a lot of pieces remain!! |
|
| Jan-10-09 |
| WhiteRook48: Someone should update and put this in "Longest Games" as #1. |
|
| Jan-11-09 |
| WhiteRook48: Typical... Black keeps shuffling pieces back and forth. |
|
| Jan-20-09 |
| WhiteRook48: moves 41-196, the Rook moves back between h8 and h6 repeatedly.
moves 203-223, the King toggles back and forth between c7 and d6. Starting on move 227 and ending on move 274, the bishop moves between c3 and d4. I think this game is a JOKE!! |
|
| Jan-24-09 |
| WhiteRook48: lucky the pawn structure is blocked.
<ravel5184> very funny. Somehow I sense <Everyone> is coming onto the page... :) |

| vikinx: <Yeah everyone! You heard the man!> That's the first time I have seen anyone support me. Every other time I've posted, people always ignored or became mad at me. |

I put this game in my game collection named "Longest games" just like you said. But this is not the longest game. I give it to you to find the LONGEST game. |
|
| Jan-29-09 |
| WhiteRook48: let's see, (just skimming) this game is 275 moves long... |
|
| Jan-29-09 |
| WhiteRook48: and the #1 in the collection seems to be 271 moves long... did Java make an error, or is 275 actually less than 271? :-) (I'm not mad at you, and my ignore list is empty) |
|
| Jan-29-09 |
| WhiteRook48: why did Nakamura play 224...c4? |
|
| Jan-31-09 |
| WhiteRook48: <WhiteRook48> never mind that Jan-20 post, the rook shuffling between h8 and h6 began on move 39 |
|
| Feb-01-09 |
| WhiteRook48: and one time Nakamura might have stopped the cursor because somewhere in those moves it was on h7 |
|
| Feb-03-09 |
| WhiteRook48: it would be even funnier if Rybka was able to move a pawn, and they moved pawns for 1000 moves until the 50-move-draw was called |
|
| Feb-06-09 |
| WhiteRook48: A correction: this game is supposedly tied with the Nikolic-Arsovic 1989 game. However this game is 275 moves and Nikolic-Arsovic is 269 moves. Is there an error?
Anyway, sorry for ruining the game collection |

| WhiteRook48: the longest drawn game |

| heklex: 115...Rh7! was a very subtle, psychological manevuer, luring Rybka on unexplored territory and getting it out of it's huge database. Shaken and confused, the computer has eventually given up a pawn, just to halt the Rook rampage. However, with deep Bishop swing on enemy's territory, the silicon managed to outplay Human once again. White's win seemed certain until Nakamura found a problem-like solution 224...c4!!, untangling his dead Bishop and introducing crazy, 48-move combination that led forcefully to a well-deserved draw. Wow. Who says chess isn't exciting!? |

| BobbyDigital80: Why was this game drawn? :( There was still a lot play left in this position. |
