 | | chancho: I'm guessing tablas now... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | ajile: Um coudn't White have doubled on the open e file with queen and rook? : / |

 | | Domdaniel: McShane looks like a young John Cusack. He should be starring in a Western movie with a name like <Luke's Gold: Return of the Son of a Man called Shane>... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | whiteshark: <Dom> Don't mess with Evers. http://www.itcanwait.com/content/ro... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Eyal: Turns out both Shipov and Sakaev were right... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | David2009: Crafty End Game Trainer defending as Black is satisfied with perpetual check. Has White more? |
|
Dec-12-10 | | BobCrisp: Anand is a bum; he couldn't even beat a crappy 2650 player with White. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Marmot PFL: Carlsen game? |
|
Dec-12-10 | | VargPOD: Very solid from McShane. Another defensive triumph to the Berlin Wall. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | ajile: He used the Force to Force a draw.
Not bad young Skywalker. |

 | | scormus: Yes .... to most of what's been posted, well most od what's been posted that I can understand.
Well played, Luke.
Carlson game, yes. You really wont want to see the end of Naka-Nige (if there any end left) |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Ulhumbrus: <chessgames.com> Are you going to switch to another game? |
|
Dec-12-10
 | | Administrator: Thank you all for watching the game with us. Tomorrow is a rest day. Our coverage will continue on Tuesday at 9:am USA/Eastern time. Hope to see you then. |
|
Dec-12-10
 | | Domdaniel: A visit from Administrator in full Admin Regalia.
We are honored, Sir. We'll come back when we're told, if not sooner. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Landman: McShane moves his Knight 9 times in the first 19 moves and it ends up on f6. |
|
Dec-12-10
 | | scormus: At least the main man came in (virtual) person to tell us we werent switching to another game. Not all bosses do that, mine not anyway .... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Chessinfinite: Mc Shane somehow managed to play well to hold Anand. Looks like Anand is taking it easy on the English players.. though he crushed the greatest of them yesterday.. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Atking: Chessgames-com this is not an uncommun opening... |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Paraconti: I didn't realize McShane was rated so much more above Anand in ELO points. |
|
Dec-12-10
 | | perfidious: <Atking> We can only wish it were, and thank Anand for at least sparing us yet another wretched Berlin Wall and trying to infuse a little life into things. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | polarmis: Here's my final version of Sergey Shipov's commentary on the game: http://www.chessintranslation.com/2... On the opening - it's interesting that as he points out McShane's 11...d6 was played by Adolf Anderssen 144 years ago! |
|
Dec-12-10 | | Eyal: <polarmis> Thanks as usual - also for the reference to the discussion of the Anand-Nakamura endgame. Here's the historical game: G Neumann vs Anderssen, 1866. |
|
Dec-12-10 | | polarmis: Thanks, <Eyal>, it's interesting to see your quotes from both Sakaev and Shipov. It's been a bit silly so far - Chess Pro and Crestbook have chosen the same game each round! (admittedly today was the first time you could have had any doubts which the main game was, but still...) |
|
Dec-14-10 | | LucB: This is not really an "uncommon opening", is it? |
|
Dec-15-10 | | Brandon plays: On this page they show Anand as being the 2600 whereas McShane is 2804. Good game nonethless. |
