I am from East Grand Forks, Minnesota, and on a good day my rating is about 1500. Just a fascinated hack trying to pick up a thing or two.

eric the Baptist: Almost beyond belief that anyone could play a game like this while blindfolded. totally amazing.
 
   Nov-07-12 Granda-Zuniga vs R Rodriguez Lopez, 1995 (replies)
 
eric the Baptist: Kind of a tough one today. Actually requires 6 moves by white to complete the checkmate. Shame on you Minnesota. Yet another disgraceful performance at the voting booth.
 
   Sep-17-12 N Bodnar vs V Malakhov, 1999
 
eric the Baptist: Well, 4 captures in 5 moves anyway. Malakhov. Malakhov musta been plenty sore about that.

eric the Baptist: Yeah, lame draw. Hard to believe there is no play left in these positions. Now, a rest day. But this IS for a world title, so I don't blame them for not rushing through it.
 
   May-24-12 Anand-Gelfand World Chess Championship (2012) (replies)
 
eric the Baptist: they really need to play these games out a bit further. both players just seem terrified of losing, and so jump at the chance to end the game. You'd never know they were playing for something major.

eric the Baptist: He won Gouda in '84, huh? He probably wished he had taken the trip to Ibiza instead.
