KampongBoy has kibitzed 37 times to chessgames   [less...]

Jun-18-07 J Henningsen vs R Borik, 1979    KampongBoy: Far too simple, with so few pieces out how many possible moves does one need to really consider from the position?      May-22-07 Reiner vs Steinitz, 1860    KampongBoy: Kasparov's first book on the World Champions (My Great Pred... vol.!) gives a very good treatment to Steinitz as I remember. Today's puzzle was fairly easy, but then it is only Tuesday!      May-14-07 A Anastasian vs Tiviakov, 1999    KampongBoy: Took me a minute, knights complicate these positions, can leap into a variety of squares; and I was sucked into looking for a smothered mate.      May-07-07 F Handke vs S Atalik, 2000    KampongBoy: Far too easy; recall comment long ago by David Bronstein, (probably tongue in cheek) on analyzing. "I start off by looking to see if I can sacrifice my Queen, if that doesn't work, then one of my rooks...."      Apr-08-07 Kavalek vs E Formanek, 1970    KampongBoy: I would have played the cute 35. Be7 mate, but only for aesthetics!      Mar-08-07 E Osbun vs Adams, 1988   KampongBoy: Michael Adams is British, the tournament seems to be American, I would assume Black is another Adams.      Mar-04-07 Spassky vs D J Banks, 1971    KampongBoy: Do not explore too deeply into Black's moves. The player was rated about 1600 at the time as I recall, and was published as a theoretical novelty that Black introduced (possibly by chance, not volition). We all were impressed that the game was published, I believe that it made ...      Sep-16-06 Jeremy Silman    KampongBoy: I'm very happy about this announcement. It shows that Silman has high standards and wishes continually to bring us the best instruction he can. Wish more writers had his high personal standards. Good for you, Jeremy! I purchased his 3rd edition 6 weeks ago and will buy the new ...      Sep-04-06 Karpov vs E Gik, 1968    KampongBoy: In response to the question posted 2 years ago (!), the game with analysis by Karpov can be found in Karpov's Best Games of Chess, by Karpov himself. It is the first of 43 games in the text.      Aug-13-06 P Burilova vs A Partington, 2000    KampongBoy: Probably wasn't thinking he could pull off a combination in this position so didn't look for it. How strong are these players anyways?      Jul-26-06 Topalov vs Morozevich, 2002     Jul-22-06 Shabalov vs L Basin, 1989     Mar-24-06 K Burger vs A Saidy, 1965     Sep-03-05 A Bisguier vs A Saidy, 1963     Jul-01-05 K Spraggett vs F South, 1976     Jun-05-05 Reshevsky vs Najdorf, 1952     Dec-28-04 S Matthews vs J M Dominguez, 2004     Dec-27-04 K Richter vs Gruenfeld, 1928     Dec-25-04 L Day vs Benko, 1980     Dec-24-04 Santasiere vs B Blumin, 1939     Dec-19-04 Alekhine vs V Sheffield, 1933     Dec-16-04 L Schepers vs J L Jouy, 1983     Dec-13-04 M Basman vs D Barua, 1991     Dec-12-04 N Coenen vs G Burgess, 2002     Dec-11-04 Fischer vs E Bhend, 1959     Nov-18-04 Westminster CC vs Paris CC, 1834     Nov-13-04 P Michel vs Pilnik, 1948    Oct-25-04 A Sokolov vs Bologan, 1998     Sep-29-04 F Herrmann vs H Hussong, 1930     Aug-28-04 J Noa vs Mason, 1883     Aug-24-04 V Hruby vs Mason, 1882
