Medieval Knight has kibitzed 15 times to chessgames   [less...]

Nov-12-13 Carlsen vs Anand, 2013    Medieval Knight: Has anyone pointed out that Anand has only seen the King's Indian Attack 6 times as Black since 1989, and that his last two games were losses? (Karpov 1998, World Championship Match, Sasikiran, 2002 FIDE World Cup-C). It was a good try, but I expect Carlson will move on to ...      Jan-25-13 Y Hou vs Anand, 2013    Medieval Knight: Too bad Yifan's passed pawn wasn't on the a-file!      May-11-12 Nakamura vs Robson, 2012    Medieval Knight: Looks like Ray had to hatch the queen on move 45, since 45..Rf3 loses immediately to 46 Nc7+ (Mate in 2) What a finish!      Oct-16-11 V Akobian vs The World, 2011    Medieval Knight: <JimmyRockHound: Hi. Just joined up. If white plays Ra1 now have we not lost our rook?> I don't think so. 19.Ra1 Bxd3 20.Qxd3 Rc4 or 19.Ra1 Bxd3 20.b3 Bxe2      Oct-02-11 Waitaka chessforum    Medieval Knight: Pre-voting for move 15 a)Bf5 Qc7 b)dxe5 Nxe5 c)Bc2 cxd4 d)Bb1 cxd4      Aug-09-11 M Grabarczyk vs E Danielian, 2000    Medieval Knight: Does anyone see a win for White if Black had played 44...Re8 ? Good catch, TomOhio      Apr-21-11 M Wahls vs R Vera, 1996    Medieval Knight: I sort of got it. I found 22...Bxh2+ and analyzed 23.Kxh2 and 23.Kf2, but didn't analyze 23.Qxh2 (What actually happened!). Good God, my head is in the clouds today!      Apr-19-11 Khalifman vs I Bukavshin, 2011    Medieval Knight: Luck also enters in when your opponent misses a chance to crush you and you escape with a draw.      Mar-07-11 Vasiukov vs Razuvaev, 1972    Medieval Knight: Missed it. I can see it's going to be a long week. I was trying to trap the black queen.      Feb-28-11 J Tambini vs V Jones, 2010    Medieval Knight: How about 29...Rfa8 (Mate next move), 30.Qd8+ Rxd8, 31.Rxd8+ Bf8 32.Rd2 (Preventing Qc2#) Ra1+, 32.Kxa1 Qa4+, 33. Kb1 Qa2+ 34. Kc1 Qa1#. Not as elegant, but it works. White rook on d2 aids the mate.      Feb-09-11 V Nenarokov vs P Romanovsky, 1927     Jan-27-11 A Sherzer vs P Acs, 1998     Jan-14-11 Ivanchuk vs Shirov, 2009
