Jun-17-09		blacksburg: BOOO HISS <throws tomatoes> BOOOOO <looks for a D battery>

Jun-19-09		triangulation: What happened here! They drew inside theory. why bother even playing the match?

Jun-19-09		acirce: <why bother even playing the match?> It's illegal not to. And it's understandable for Nisipeanu after starting the tournament with two losses. Black can't deviate without getting worse and a draw with Black is ok anyway.

Jun-19-09		ajile: Lame. White plays to draw specifically.

Jun-19-09		eainca: This is the main knock on the Italian. Don't want to work, head for a quick draw.

Jun-19-09		WhiteRook48: BOO <throws rotten eggs>

Jun-20-09		Mate Hunter: This game should have been drawn two moves earlier according to chess rules, since the same position occured three times.

Jun-22-09		TimPemberton: but the repetition rule is only enforced by the players, they can carry on if they want to

Sep-17-12		FSR: I was trying to find a good Giuoco Piano that Nisipeanu had played so I could suggest "Nice Piano" as a pun. But all I found was this lame GM draw and Nisipeanu vs A Aleksandrov, 2004 (essentially the same GM draw). Not very "nice."
