| Apr-07-17 | | RookFile: I just had this strange feeling Akobian was going to win today. See page 1 of this thread. |
|
| Apr-07-17 | | iking: 50... c4, this MOVE should put Akobian the ropes, but he did not, SAD. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | paavoh: <Caruana and Nakamura not Candidates material... > Well, both have already qualified once to such a tournament. Material is there, but is the performance right now? |

 | | FSR: <morfishine: Very well played game by Akobian, probably his best positional effort in recent memory. Very enjoyable to watch his positional edge translate into tactical trump(s).> Are you joking? |
|

 | | perfidious: Something happened on the way to White's date with the abattoir.... |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | Everyone: <<Everyone> makes errors. Caruana will come back.>
Uh, no and no. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | WorstPlayerEver: F6 such a bad move, but behind the board everything is different. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | Muttley101: <FSR: <morfishine: Very well played game by Akobian, probably his best positional effort in recent memory. Very enjoyable to watch his positional edge translate into tactical trump(s). Are you joking??>
No, he's trolling. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | morfishine: <FSR...Are you joking?> No, but perhaps that is a stretch. I'm a firm believer that great tactics always stem from superior positional play. Here, I was mainly impressed with Akobian's ability to "fly all over the place" to hold and finally win vs Fab, which according to my thinking, he would not have been able to do if he had a sub-par positional stance ***** |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | Imran Iskandar: According to Caruana's post-game interview after his win against Shabalov, he became dizzy near the end of the first time control, which likely explains his inexplicable decisions which led to his demise. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | morfishine: <Imran Iskandar> Thank you, perhaps that clears up some things ***** |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | Marmot PFL: In the classic book "Think Like a Grandmother" GM Alexander Kotov called this condition "Dizziness due to success". |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | morfishine: <Marmot PFL> I have to mention that a certain member with the name of <SirRuthless> has attacked you without basis I want to say that I support you
***** |

| | perfidious: No-one cares what <sirgormless> thinks, other than himself; and he imagines that his views are holy writ. |
|
| Apr-08-17 | | SirRuthless: Love that ignore button. :D |
|
| Apr-09-17 | | morfishine: <perfidious> ROFL "<sirgormless>" |
|
| Apr-09-17 | | FlashinthePan: How can 76... f6 possibly be played at that level? Was Caruana in zeitnot? |
|

<sirgormless> |

| Apr-09-17 | | Absentee: <paavoh: With respect to <name-calling in English>, I learn every day here at CG: <sirgormless>> Try Shakespeare.
<The rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended nostril.> <Thou clay-brained guts, thou knotty-pated fool, thou whoreson obscene greasy tallow-catch!> <What a brazen-faced varlet art thou!> <Draw, you whoreson cullionly barber-monger, draw!> <A stone-cutter or painter could not have made him so ill though they had been but two years o' th' trade.> <Thou whoreson zed, thou unnecessary letter!—My lord, if you will give me leave, I will tread this unbolted villain into mortar and daub the wall of a jakes with him.—Spare my gray beard, you wagtail?> |
|
| Apr-11-17 | | paavoh: Thanks <Absentee>, I assume your fourth quotation might serve as a "polite" offer to split the point. |
