Nov-18-13		kappertjes: <perfidious> I clearly misread your post entirely. Apologies!

Nov-18-13		perfidious: <kappertjes>: Accepted!

Dec-19-13		Everyone: expected <29 ...Bxb2>, when White's compensation following <30 Rae1 Rb6> appeared vague.

Jan-02-14		checkmateyourmove: <csmath> "What amazes me even more is how correct these two guys are right when it is happening despite the hordes of analyses afterwards in which various commentators are searching for something they cannot find." Well said my friend, that reminds me of the feeling i have watching GM's playing blitz too.

Jan-02-14		checkmateyourmove: Magnus said after game 1, he had to pull his E brake. Game three looks like he is still getting use to his new Ferrari. :)

Mar-12-14		yureesystem: Anand completely outplay Magnus, Vishy opening incredible, a reverse Dragon. If Anand won this game, I believe he would won the match. This is the game that might have discourage Vishy and the beginning of his downfall.

Mar-12-14		Petrosianic: You know, if you massage the facts hard enough, it's actually possible to conclude that Janowski was better than Lasker. You're not quite ready for that one yet, but give it time...

Mar-12-14		Jim Bartle: <yureesystem: Anand completely outplay Magnus, Vishy opening incredible, a reverse Dragon. If Anand won this game, I believe he would won the match. This is the game that might have discourage Vishy and the beginning of his downfall.> I forget. How many games did Anand win in the match? (I have always liked Anand, how can you not, but results are results.)

Mar-12-14		Petrosianic: Not so Fun Fact: Carlsen is the ONLY player in history to score 65% against a defending champion. Far from being a squeaker, this was one of the more decisive changings of the guard.

Apr-09-14		joddon: tough tough game....threw off anands confidence to see that he was up against such a fighting chess machine....these two are like kasparov vs karpov in the 80s. both breathtaking move makers who wont give one another even the smallest chance to win......

Jul-03-18		Caissa04: Anand has a convertible advantage after 25.Qh1

Jul-03-18		ChessHigherCat: <Caissa04: Anand has a convertible advantage after 25.Qh1> Yes, one has a much more advantageous view of the board in a convertible.

Jan-28-19		Everett: It’s one of those funny things. If Karpov had the Black pieces on move 25, chances are he wins. But maybe he doesn’t get that position in the first place.

Mar-17-19		cormier: <<<<Nov-12-13 mrbasso: <SirRuthless> Anand had to find this OTB with little time on the clock and evaluate the resulting endgame as winning for black: 29... Bxb2 30. Rae1 Rb6 31.
