Garech Member since Apr-08-08 · Last seen May-22-13 Irish club player. If you are interested in seeing analysis of great GM games, learning opening traps and general theory please check out my youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/SeanGGo... I have two game on chessgames! J Killane vs S Godley, 2009 See if you can find the almost certainly winning continuation white missed in the middlegame! (If you think you've got it, check out the link beneath the game). My second game is from a simul against Nigel Short: Short vs S Godley, 2011 I lasted 44 moves, despite playing a little timidly - could have won a pawn in the opening (9...Qa5) but was committed to my plan of c4, Bc6 and 0-0-0 (which GM Short had other ideas about!). Ultimately, it was a well played game by him. Enjoy!

May-13-13 G Reid vs V Avari, 1998    Garech: Fantastic game! Very enjoyable. It really seemed to me that black could have attacked with more venom on the kingside - but it was irrelevant, ultimately. The queen penetration proved decisive. In other news, can Carlsen break his drawing streak and break Karjakin's winning streak? ...      Apr-27-13 Kramnik vs M Vachier-Lagrave, 2013   Garech: It's an A26 - English opening against King's Indian with d3 and Nc6. At least, according to Fritz 12. -Garech      Apr-06-13 Botvinnik vs Smyslov, 1954   Garech: A Titanic struggle! It seems that Smyslov was virtually winning around move 35, and let his advantage slip. Botvinnik, however, never got equality back, and Smyslov fought hard enough to gain a second advantage and win. Great Stuff! Garech      Mar-29-13 Van der Wiel vs W Iclicki, 1985   Garech: What a game! Will think up a pun. -Garech      Mar-29-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    Garech: So, how does today's results leave the tiebreaks? Even if Carlsen wins both his remaining games, and Vlad gets a win and a draw, won't Vlad now be the winner? Unbelievable. -Garech      Mar-29-13 Anand vs B Badea, 1990    Garech: Great game! Loved the pun too; huge Breaking Bad fan. -Garech      Mar-26-13 Petrosian vs Teschner, 1960   Garech: The bishop pair owns the board for Iron Tigran, great game. -Garech      Mar-22-13 Svidler vs Carlsen, 2013    Garech: What a game from Magnus. This win reminded me of Fischer's play - the clinical accuracy, constant threats, positional domination and tactical icing-on-the-cake. Superb! -Garech      Mar-21-13 Kramnik vs Aronian, 2013    Garech: Amazing save by Aronian; great accuracy was required and he played perfectly. It was not your standard "opposite bishops easy draw" situation by any strength. Kudos to big Vlad also, although he did miss some stronger play earlier in the game that may have led to a win. -Garech      Mar-17-13 Radjabov vs Ivanchuk, 2013    Garech: <kellmano> - yeah, it's such a laugh! By the way, if Ivanchuk flagged, how come he played the last move of the game? Surely that's not possible? -Garech
