Zenchess has kibitzed 577 times to chessgames   [less...]

Oct-18-24 Robert Merton Jacobs    Zenchess: I've seen him in real life. Luckily, I haven't been the victim of his play, but there were a bunch of times where he would vanquish people with the Berlin Defense well before Kramnik adopted it and made it mainstream theory. And then he would lecture his victim afterwards about how      Sep-17-24 T Todorov vs J Song, 2009    Zenchess: White could have claimed three time repetition. The position was the same on moves 74, 87, and 89.      Aug-27-24 Russian Championship (2024)    Zenchess: At least the Sinquefield Cup participants are making an effort to produce fighting chess for the most part. The average number of moves per game in the Sinquefield Cup is 46.6. In this tournament, it is 33.90.      Jul-24-24 Lipschutz vs W Pollock, 1886    Zenchess: 37. Nxh6!! forces immediate resignation.      Jul-20-24 L Hill vs Fischer, 1957    Zenchess: Honestly, I can't find anything to fault here for Black. Everything Fischer played was either the top Stockfish 16.1 move or really close.      Jul-07-24 Capablanca vs Janowski, 1911    Zenchess: The key point is that 59...g5!! leads to 60. Qxh3+ Kg7 61. Qf3 Qc1 62. Qf6+ Kg8 63. Qe6+ Kg7 64. Qe7+ Kh8 65. Qf8+ Kh7 66. Nf6+, and then Black has luft with his King with Kg6, and the game goes on. After 59...g6, the game continuation, there follows 60. Qxh3+ Kg7 61. Qf3 Qc1 62. ...      Apr-22-24 Caruana vs Nepomniachtchi, 2024    Zenchess: 64. Qe8! wins.      Mar-22-24 J Mieses vs Rubinstein, 1908   Zenchess: Looking back on this game 16 years later: --I still think 5. Nxc3 was better than the game continuation. --Black misplayed this around move nine. 9...c5! would have grabbed a lot more space than Nc6?!. --I was right that 11. Bc1? was a lemon. However, my alternative, 11. Ne2 Bf5 ...      Oct-30-23 P Passerotti vs E Ubilava, 1990    Zenchess: What about 42. Rh4 g5?      Jan-01-23 Shimanov vs A Uskov, 2022   Zenchess: I want to know too. White is a little better here, but it's nothing to resign over. And I resign games prematurely all the time.      Dec-15-22 P W Bridgman vs G W Tucker, 1904     Sep-16-22 Champions Showdown 9LX (2022)     Jul-26-20 Steinitz vs von Bardeleben, 1895     Jul-24-20 NN
