  perfidious: This opening is straight out of the late 19th century.
Jan-22-25  whiteshark: Pragg has dived into the think tank. He has to make a landmark decision about the progress of the game on his 9th move. 9...Bxc3/9...Ba6/9...c5 are the closest choices.
Jan-22-25  whiteshark: Symmetry restored. :)
Well there are opp.col. ♗

  keypusher: Warmerdam may still be in shock from yesterday.
Jan-22-25  whiteshark: Time left after <12...f6>: 01h06m - 01h01m

  perfidious: Did Warmerdam muck this up?
Jan-22-25  whiteshark: correction: Time left after <12...f6>: 01h06m - 00h42m I blame Putin for this transmission interference.

  Open Defence: I was looking at the line 16.Ba3 but 16...Re8 17.Nc5 Qf5 18.Nxe4 dxe4 19.Qxf5 Bxf5 20.c4 doesn't give White anything I think

  Open Defence: for Praggnanandhaa's community there is no concept of surname they either use their father's name or village name to indicate origin
Jan-22-25  vonKrolock: <Open Defense> Thank You for the explanation ...

Jan-22-25  whiteshark: I wonder if these two connected central passers will be of any value ;)
Jan-22-25  cormier: rooks behind pass pawn

  An Englishman: Good Morning: After 10...Ne4, did anyone think this pawn formation (after 26.Re2) would arise?
