Aug-12-12 Polugaevsky vs Smyslov, 1979 
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: CG, please don't put the kibitzing on the sides rather than at the bottom. It would make it impossible to focus on the moves and at the same time ignore the kibitzing.

| | Aug-11-12 Lutikov vs L Aronson, 1957
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: I assume that at the time Lutikov played this combination, he would have received not only a gracious handshake from his opponent, but also an enthusiastic round of applause from the audience - whether it was made up of grown-ups or indeed of children.

| | May-21-12 J Benjamin vs N Gamboa, 1995
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: I scrolled down only as far as the sixth rank before solving this. I saw the black diagonal across the Black King, figured there had to be a Bishop ranging along it, and that therefore the Queen had to be hitting c6, followed by mate from either the other Bishop going to a6, ...

| |
|
Cardinal Fang: White wasn't very classy - he should either resign straight away, or allow Black to deliver the mate.

Cardinal Fang: He is said to have once entered a tournament under the pseudonym "Navilluso".

| | Mar-02-12 Huang vs Wang Yue, 1999
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: Pretty disgusting. Wang was 12 at the time and will (like his opponent) have had no say in proceedings. I hope one day the world situation changes to the extent that he is able to put things right.

| | Feb-23-12 Fritz vs M Bosboom, 2000
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: <Necessary Truths> No, the game score is complete and correct. In fact, Bosboom offered a draw after playing 3. ... Bg4, and resigned after the computer played 4. Nc3. In 2000 the Dutch National Chess Federation made the controversial decision to allow Fritz to ...

| | Feb-22-12 Rybka vs Pandix, 2008
| |
|
Cardinal Fang: Why aren't people allowed to compete in the Dutch Computer Chess Championships? Doesn't seem fair.
