roberts partner has kibitzed 29 times to chessgames   [more...]

Sep-26-09 Nigel Short    roberts partner: There is now a fuller explanation on www.ecforum.org.uk from the ECF international director, Stewart Reuben: Nigel Short not playing for the English Team in the European Team Championship is a very long story which only reflects well on Nigel. He contacted me last year and ...      Sep-22-09 Pirc vs Lilienthal, 1935   roberts partner: The knight may still be on b1 but very faint in the photo because it is a light square. If the demo board knight was en route from b1 to c3 you would expect to see a human hand transporting it....      Aug-04-09 J Hawkins vs R Palliser, 2009    roberts partner: Try 28...Qg3+ 29 Kh1 and now Re5.      Jul-06-09 J Stopa vs J Benjamin, 2009    roberts partner: White was actually the Polish IM Jacek Stopa, not the much lower rated American with the same name.      Jun-24-09 C Kottnauer vs BBC listeners, 1960    roberts partner: The comment above is not correct. The votes from listeners were submitted to a master, who for most of this game was Harry Golombek, and he chose the move he considered best, explaining his reasons on the next weekly Network Three radio programme.      Jun-21-09 Gordon Thomas Crown    roberts partner: First, the 1947 match was definitely Britain v USSR (as were the preceding 1946 radio match and the subsequent 1954 match in London) and not England v USSR as domdaniel claims and as chessgames.com now mistakenly states in its changed introduction. The book of the 1947 match      May-14-09 Fischer vs J H Donner, 1962    roberts partner: The story is a myth. Fischer stayed with the US team and had nothing to do with Donner's room. What did happen is that after the game the players were returning to the hotel from the tournament room and the Dutch and American teams were walking a few yards apart. Donner ...      Apr-12-09 L Barden vs J Penrose, 1959   roberts partner: After 31...Qd8 32 Nf7 Qd2 33 Nxe5 Qc1+ 34 Bd1!(34 Kh2? Qf4 )Qxd1+ 35 Kh2 Qh5 36 exf5 bxc3 37 g4 Qe8 38 Qxe8 White has four pawns for the bishop and significant winning chances.      Apr-11-09 William Hartston    roberts partner: The story is correct, FrogC's interpretation is wrong. The fifth player was Jonathan Mestel.      Apr-11-09 Leonard William Barden    roberts partner: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/chess
