Aug-25-25 Fischer vs Benko, 1959    drleper: Haha <38.Kh1>, if that's real then Fischer had a sense of humour :P <Cecco: Understandably, <pepechuy> wondered whether Fischer really played 38. Kh1. Even though the position is still winning for White, he can't afford to keep his king on h1. He might as well ...      Aug-23-25 Benko vs Sawyer, 1964    drleper: I wonder what <chrisowen> would think of this game.      Aug-23-25 Carlsen vs Svidler, 2018   drleper: Short bit of classic post-game analysis on black's 11th move: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6h...      Aug-20-25 Sinquefield Cup (2025)    drleper: <they are relentlessly slagged by players everywhere who couldn't touch them on the best day of their lives.> Yep, pretty much sums all that up.      May-13-25 Caruana vs B Deac, 2025    drleper: <perfidious: At first glance, this seemed to me to be a poor form of the Centre Game for White; after ten moves he already looks to have the inferior position.> Just curious, what makes you say that white's position is inferior?      Dec-07-24 Niemann vs Kramnik, 2023    drleper: <jerseybob: <drleper: "virtue signaling" is quite an annoying phrase.> With an annoying reality attached to it.> A reality usually existing only in the minds of the people who throw the phrase around ;)      Mar-15-23 G Canfell vs J Lakner, 2005    drleper: Nobody expects Qg3+      Feb-13-23 Tal vs G Ballon, 1986    drleper: <Messiah: You are very clever, please share additional things.> Well, the comment was more interesting than your pointless dig :)      Jan-16-23 Lasker vs Rubinstein, 1914    drleper: <Honza Cervenka: Rubinstein should not go for the Rook ending by 54...c5? With Bishops on the board black could probably hold the game with optimal play, or at least his practical chance on successful defense would be much greater there than in a Rook ending, where white can ...      Nov-25-22 D Anton Guijarro vs J Moussard, 2022    drleper: 80.h4?? gxh4?? is not a move order glitch, it really happened (the increment was 10 seconds). Unfortunately for white the bishop was the right colour for a win, so 80...Bxa4 81.hxg5+ Kxg5 was not even good enough for a draw. Over 5,000 rating points at the board—happens to the ...
