pawn to QB4: http://ballynafeighchess.wordpress.... check out the lads at Ballynafeigh having fun with this one, particularly the (faked) statement from the alleged cheat, who goes to one of Ireland's poshest private schools. Don't know how we eliminate cheating with computers from chess, ...

pawn to QB4: <have the mighty Botvinnik, Tal or Kasparov ever come close to going 11-0> believe it or not, they haven't. But here's a decent score by Botvinnik in the USSR Championship: 15 - 2, the field a mite stronger than RJF had to face. http://graeme.50webs.com/chesschamp...

pawn to QB4: OK, so some think the tournament is fixed; some think it's boring. If, like myself, you're too naive to go for either of those options, you're left watching a thrilling finish to a Candidates Tournament fit to rank with any of its predecessors. My thanks to all the players, ...
