| | Nov-20-12 World Youth Championship (2012) 
| |
|
vkwow: <hemateme> from what I remember correctly(having played before) the top prize is a dual core laptop. Still not that much, considering the expenses and that most regular tourneys pay out more in value.

| | Sep-28-12 Radjabov vs G Jones, 1997 
| |
|
vkwow: <JohnBoy> at the World youth, the requirement is you can't have turned 10 before the start of the year.(Jan 1) So, Radjabov was eligible, as he was born in March.

| | Sep-08-12 Nakamura vs Kramnik, 2012 
| |
|
vkwow: <Jimfromprovidence>, are you so sure that that final ending is a difficult win? It takes a lot of moves, but white can support the pawn, bring his king up, and win the bishop for a pawn, getting a king bishop and knight vs.king which is elementary in the top level.

|
| | Jun-11-12 L Lane vs N Gaprindashvili, 1961 
| |
|
vkwow: I think time trouble is a very unlikely reason for the draw , considering that there are only 3 moves till the time control, and all the moves require zero thinking up until then. Black can simply wait and take action after the time control is reached.

| | May-15-12 Gelfand vs Anand, 2012 
| |
|
vkwow: Anand would kill Gelfand in rapid, for he is the much better player in this format. Against Kamsky, for instance, Gelfand blundered a queen, and the only reason he advanced was because Kamsky missed another tactic in the next game(which Anand would have definitely seen)
