May-18-13 Norway Chess Tournament (2013) 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Give Wang Hao credit for pulling himself out of an ignominious but understandable bottom, and high kudos to Topalov for cementing his reputation for being endlessly inconsistent. Naka worked hard in every game and reaped the benefits. Vishy held his own, since star ...

| |
|
SteinitzLives: Why thank you, I slept well.
|
|
| | May-12-13 Aronian vs Karjakin, 2013 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Number 18 Peyton Manning, #19 Johnny Unitas
and #20, the number of consecutive chess games Fischer won against top chess competition sans draws.
|
|
| | May-11-13 Colonel Moreau 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Colonel Moreau is a secret personal hero to many due to his ruthless refusal to withdraw from a tourney where he was not only out of his league, but in many ways a painfully growing embarrassment with each passing round, as he rather publicly hatched goose eggs like they were ...

|
SteinitzLives: Ah, glad to see the loathesome bring some life back to this lurid thread: Putins' rule,
Our love affair with tattoos,
The incompetence of Clarence Thomas,
"News" about the personal lives of pro athletes, actors and politicians,
Tournaments with lame tie-breaks,
...

|
| | May-08-13 Carlsen vs Topalov, 2013 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: If Tope draws, it's got to feel as good as a win after his miserable showing in the blitz tourney. What is it that makes him so regularly inconsistent?
|
|
| | May-08-13 A Ramirez vs S Shankland, 2013
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Shanklands 16. .......bxc5, giving white the connected passer and Q side initiative does not look very sensible. The central initiative black obtained in return was inadequate and fizzled quickly considering white had two developed Rs and black had none. By the time black ...
|
|
| | May-08-13 A Ivanov vs B Finegold, 2013
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Frustrating draw for Ivanov, who had good opening initiative and was a pawn up most of the game. I give big Ben credit for going from attacked king to active king to avoid a third consecutive loss. His active R and B defense is instructive and white could make no progress.
|
|
| | May-08-13 Stripunsky vs J Sammour Hasbun, 2013 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: Ah, a miniature! This time Strip is not on the receiving end as in last year. Black was in trouble well before Nh7? How many holes can one leave in ones house before wind and small critters come in?
|
|
| | May-07-13 Onischuk vs Christiansen, 2013 
| |
|
SteinitzLives: This game makes me loathe minor piece endings. In a very even looking position, white finds the way to win both black rim pawns and that's game.
