Jun-19-22 World Championship Candidates (2022) 
| |
| Paraconti: The fact is Carlsen is also human and has been inflicted by the fear of being a defeated champion and knowing his play will never be the same again like all defeated ex-champs. Better to just quit and preserve his massive ego and his play may not suffer to much. |

|
Nov-25-21 Carlsen - Nepomniachtchi World Championship Match (2021)
| |
| Paraconti: 1. The world championship match between the reigning champ and a challenger who has qualified from a series of tournaments or elimination matches (the same way the champ did) is the only way to determine who should be the best player in the world. 2. It cannot be a tournament ... |

Nov-17-16 Carlsen vs Karjakin, 2016
| |
| Paraconti: Karjakin's unintended rope-a-dope may seeve him well. Carlsen seems to be frustrated after failing to convert the initiative several times, while Karjakin is probably craving to show what he can do with it. If he gets a win and the lead it will be tough for Carlsen to come back. |

Nov-15-16 Karjakin vs Carlsen, 2016
| |
| Paraconti: Why not Bb6 to exchange the B and go for a B v N ending? |

Dec-27-15 Qatar Masters (2015)
| |
| Paraconti: <LlanelliCC><Being too clever is all about youth. In a couple of years the too-clever people kibitzing now will just be boring old farts and another lot of too-clevers will take over.> A very insightful comment! |

Dec-17-15 Kibitzer's Café
| |
| Paraconti: I'm just an average Joe, and I must confess I find it ridiculously hard and next to impossible to solve the Christmas Clues! Does anyone feel the same way? |
|
|
|
Oct-02-15 Karpov - Kasparov World Championship Match (1985)
| |
| Paraconti: Campomanes should have halted the match for 6 months and have it resumed at 5-3. That would've helped Karpov tremendously! |
|
|
|
Sep-27-15 Spassky vs Fischer, 1972
| |
| Paraconti: I thought the movie was good, despite Tobey being a miscast. My main peeve with the historical facts was that Spassky was said to be the world champ in 1966. |
|
|
|
Jun-20-15 Norway Chess (2015)
| |
| Paraconti: <bobthebob> Re: Fischer-Spassky match when both players were not at their best. Yet a convincing victory followed. |
|
|
|
Apr-27-15 Kasparov vs Short (Blitz) (2015)
| |
| Paraconti: The nature of the loss is enough to make any chess professional seriously wonder why he spends so much time at the game. But easy-going Mr Short will take it with good humour and bounce right back by winning his next tournament! |
