Dec-16-12 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1987
| |
|
acirce: <I have to admit that Karpov's uncertain play in this game disoriented me and created a rather bad psychological effect before the match in Seville. I stopped treating him with proper respect, I ceased fearing even his favourite positions where his opponent had chronic weaknesses,

|
| | Dec-15-12 Karpov-Kasparov World Championship Match (1984)
| |
|
acirce: Karpov himself explained that when signing he thought Kasparov too would accept the fait accompli and sign it as well. Meanwhile, a little later, while Karpov made public statements that he wanted, even demanded, the match to be restarted, there was this official statement from ...

|
| | Dec-10-12 London Chess Classic (2012)
| |
|
acirce: <what in the world was kramnik thinking? playing against someone who'd be satisfied with a draw and he tries the berlin wall variation of the spanish game? players have shown time and again that they'll play the lame Re1 variation and then you have virtually no hope to get a ...
|
|
| | Dec-10-12 Judit Polgar vs Aronian, 2012
| |
|
acirce: Well, I don't think that was a drawback in this case. As soon as 8..d5 was played, my thought was "Ok so they both just want to draw and go home".

|
| | Jul-20-12 Dortmund (2012)
| |
acirce: <I've always played won endgames poorly and couldn’t even tell you why myself. Perhaps I relax too soon. It’s when the evaluation isn’t yet clear,  or  , that I play ...
|
|
| | Jul-08-12 Kasparov vs Karpov, 1984
| |
|
acirce: 33.Qe5 was played, not 33.Qf4 as given here.
|
|
| | Jul-01-12 Nigel Short
| |
|
acirce: Cool. No problem. No, fairly sure I didn't intend it as a "sneer" - it's just remarkable that he finished last in Linares - when it had 14 participants - in the same year as he beat Karpov, no? (Which was also in Linares incidentally, not long after the tournament.) I mean, the win ...
|
|
| | Jun-14-12 Tal Memorial (2012)
| |
|
acirce: <Nothing against Kramnik, but he is too cautious to win an event named for Tal.> I know it's cheap to point out the obvious, that he is now in fact in shared lead, but he's also won it twice before. Once with a 1.5 points margin..
|
|
| | Jun-10-12 Radjabov vs Kramnik, 2012
| |
|
acirce: Well, it wasn't a Falkbeer. Falkbeer is 3..e4. This was just a way of playing the Modern (2..exf4 3.Nf3 d5) but without allowing 3.Bc4.
