kappertjes: So many platitudes and so much to disagree with in your post <DcGentle>: <But this game is kind of typical for Carlsen, he is content with an unambitious opening>

kappertjes: 50 pages of repetition and lengthy posts and still <petrosianic> and <AgentRgent> are going strong. Don't give up guys, no stopping until there is no one left to contradict you!
