Kibitzer's Corner
Apr-20-21  Diana Fernanda: Kill Kirill Alekseenko, up
Apr-20-21  macer75: Great job by Caruana to escape with a draw.
Apr-20-21  DouglasGomes: Caruana outplayed Alekseenko after his pawn sac, he managed to get a better position, but the only way to prove advantage was the materialistic 26.. Nxa4.
Apr-21-21  SChesshevsky: Probably a confidence builder for Alekseenko. Who's showed some good decisions in somewhat complicated positions in his last couple of games.

Might be doing better than expected so far. Hoping his good play continues.

Apr-21-21  0ZeR0: This is quite an interesting endgame. Bravo to both players, especially Caruana.
Apr-23-21  Messiah: Dear <Alice25>, I'm afraid this is a tiny bit offtopic. Obviously, if the girls in question try to improve 46.Kf2, then they are welcome no matter what, but please tell them not to forget posting annotated ideas instead of saying 'I know a better move'.
