| |
| SimplicityRichard: <metatron2> Moronovich is right. Perfidious is a well respected member of this site with good reason: He's incredibly helpful as is Moronovich. Please don't be bitter. Your comments sound bitter. |

| |
| SimplicityRichard: <njuguna> Habari ya Njuguna. Kuhana atia? I also play the Leningrad. I played quite a few variations but have tended to gravitate around the ..Qe8 variation looking to push e5. It works well. |

Jan-28-17 Carlsen vs B Adhiban, 2017
| |
| SimplicityRichard: This variation essayed by Black was my "first love" in a chess opening. I abandoned it after facing problems with 5.Bb5+. Recently however, my analysis with Stockfish has proved Bb5+ to be harmless. And a recent quick win against a chess colleague has rekindled my love for |

Jan-20-17 Giri vs Nepomniachtchi, 2017
| |
| SimplicityRichard: <Caissanist: A quick combination that wins a pawn for nothing...> I concur. Perhaps I was too eager to heap praise upon Giri who's been castigated for excessive caution. Point taken. # |
