cannibal: A comment on the first game between those two:
<shintaro go: Now this is a short draw. Amonatov practically gave up his campaign in this World Cup.> Turns out he didn't, but rather waited for Gelfand to do all the action and possibly overpress. And almost successfully, as ...

cannibal: I'm rooting for Naiditsch a little bit, so obviously I'm gonna say "Go Nyback!" (He or Svidler would be Naiditsch's next opponent :-) )

cannibal: <timhortons: sorry azzy its kramnik who win tal memorial.
tal memorial separate boys from men.>
Not that I have any definite opinion on Carlsen (against who this last sentence, just as well as all your other BS, is pointed), but it's just hilarious how you keep repeating ...

|
cannibal: In 1998, I invented the saying "I invented the saying (XYZ)". However, <technical draw> had just claimed copyright for inventing the saying "I invented the saying 'I invented the saying (XYZ)'", so I had to pay him before my business even got started.

cannibal: On the rest day in Moscow, and on a cold autumn day, here's something to cheer <slomarko> up: There now follows the list of participants in the Tal Memorial that don't have a life-time plus score against Morozevich (classical games, extracted from this database, so no final ...

cannibal: <The Rocket>
I'm not even sure if you aren't kidding because it's such <obvious> nonsense. The reasoning that <direct> encounter between two opponents tells everything about their respective strength is unsound enough. The reasoning that the encounter against one

cannibal: <HeMateMe>
If Topalov doesn't beat Anand, he is already in the candidates tournament (even Kamsky is in, that's the really silly part imho). The top 2 rating spots for the candidates are currently held by Carlsen and Kramnik. (Anand has the same bonus as Topalov, and ...

cannibal: <Eyal:
OK, so 60...Rb3?? is a losing blunder, but it should be noted that White's attack is very strong here - it's not just the threat of an immediate knight fork, as the game continuation showed. There's only one move that saves Black - <60...Ka5!> (he might have ...

cannibal: <KamikazeAttack: <In the first half of their (2000,2008) matches, Kasparov and Kramnik found themselves out-prepared and out-played. Kasparov panicked and went to pieces. Kramnik kept cool and fought back.> Accurate observation. In the second half, Kramnik was playing at ...
