moronovich Member since Sep-13-07 · Last seen Jun-19-13 Elo 2316 . "Play the board AND the man ! ". But mostly the board. Was born in Elsinore,Denmark,1953.And I am still proud of it.As I hope everyone is proud of hers/his startingpoint. In many aspects life and chess do mirror each other IM experience.As science and belief goes hand in hand.So many "rules of thumbs" and many "exceptions" from the rule. I do agree with Bent Larsen who once said that someone who cannot contain a paradoxe is not using the full capacity of his brain.Actually I am convinced that there are no parodoxes,but perspectives which are more bright or flexible than others... Though some obviously are borned under more easygoing circumstances than others,I will second our esteemed fellowkibitzer <zarg> who underlines that "luck" is also somehing that we create ourselves. Ourselves,but also together IM experience. I try to live my life as if Jesus or Buddha knocked on the door , I would wellcome them as friends . And if they didnīt show up, it would be fine anyway.

My first instinct yesterday was W-W/Anything..and it paid off.

Jun-19-13    achieve: <moro> Good morning, how is life treating you these days? I posted this over at Boomie's as well, but would appreciate your take on THE GAME from yesterday at Tal Mem... copied: --> Did you play over the Carlsen-Anand game from yesterday? I did so this morning and hardly understood a thing (I know the Nimzo quite well, and Carlsen used an old and quiet initial set-up), and given that Anand was basically almost lost after some 22 moves he must have been scratching his head and then some; what on earth had happened? My first reaction was like, err, how can the Indian Magician, one of the great ones to ever play the game, be dismantled in this subtle yet firm fashion, as if there was no resource anywhere....? Is this like Fischer at his best, late 60s, surgeon-like precision, ruthless, and rather simple looking? I still am quite busy but I need to go over some of the analysis, and the game itself again too, to get to the bottom of this. I simply want to understand what happened, and what it was in the position that made Vishy look this wing-clipped.
