Sep-10-16  ChemMac: Nice. 21...Ra7 22.Re1! and no way of avoiding R X e6
Sep-11-16  crwynn: Beating topalov & ponomariov with the veresov in the same event is quite impressive.
Sep-11-16  Moszkowski012273: 15...Bf8 and white has nothing. Cool game though!!!
Sep-11-16  Moszkowski012273: I'm TOTALLY wrong. 16.Nh6+... is STRONG. Black has too many pieces stuck on the queenside.
Sep-11-16  dehanne: Fire on board.
Sep-13-16  Timi: We need a title for this game
Sep-13-16  Happy Camper: "Jo, you were a saw!"
Sep-21-16  whiteshark: Q: When you were looking at other games, was there any game you were amazed by?

<<Anton Korobov>: "The games played by Mister .. Jobava are fantastic. He plays very unpredictably and very focused upon his opponent’s king. You play everything logically - for example, in <Jobava vs Ponomariov> - just to centralise, develop and somehow you find yourself in a situation where you cannot defend your king - very surprisingly!">

  perfidious: Good of you to thus endorse the kibitz of a player who was 2400+ US at his peak.
