Nov-17-15 Carlsen vs Pelletier, 2015    cornflake: Even Carlsen's blunders are interesting. Carlsen is willing to grab material if after calculating out the variations he believes his opponent doesn't have enough counterplay as compensation. Unfortunately he has been overlooking some moves when he visualizes these variations.      Oct-08-15 E Inarkiev vs Morozevich, 2015   cornflake: Morozevich doesn't seen to be in good form for this tournament.      Jul-21-15 Adams vs Navara, 2015    cornflake: <Jul-21-15 Al2009: How boring! Contrary Bishops...> I thought this was a nice positional/ technical win by Adams [DIAGRAM] "Contrary" bishops? yes if you mean opposite color bishops. Boring? I suppose it is if you don't like exploiting a positional advantage- Namely, that ...      Jul-19-15 Gelfand vs Ding Liren, 2015    cornflake: <supertimchan: Quick look without a computer: is 37.g5 a mistake? It looks like Black gains a better centre after 37...c4.> [DIAGRAM] I imagine Gelfand played 37 g5 to try to stir up some attacking chances on the kingside. There's clearly no plan for White on the queenside. ...      Jul-05-15 Wei Yi vs L Bruzon Batista, 2015    cornflake: I'm impressed. There are really a lot of great chess players coming from China these days.      Jul-01-15 So vs Naiditsch, 2015    cornflake: <Imran Iskandar: 21. Ra1? was a very weird move to say the least. I mean, why would So 'undevelop' his rook? He probably had his reasons but it just was a nonsensical move to play in my opinion.> I would guess the reason is that black was threatening 21...RxRc1 22. Rxc1 (or ...      Jun-28-15 Nisipeanu vs So, 2015    cornflake: White's opening play -beginning with perhaps 9.f5- looks a like home preparation variation.      Jun-26-15 Norway Chess (2015)    cornflake: < diceman: <1850Patzer: Wow, 19 games in 1 tournament? That would take a month now a days> The Palma 70 Interzonal Fischer won on the way to the world championship was 23 rounds.> Fischer was a chess machine in 1970. No one could stop him then.      Jun-22-15 Grischuk vs Topalov, 2015    cornflake: On a side note - some of the chess engine evaluations about this game were ridiculous      Jun-21-15 J L Hammer vs Topalov, 2015    cornflake: <Tomlinsky: Topalov should get online and buy a few Euro Lottery tickets asap.> Well Topa certainly has been getting some gift points from the other players. First the game from Carlsen when he had a lost position, and now this game when he had a dead drawn postion.      Jun-09-15 C Bauer vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2015    Apr-23-15 Giri vs Carlsen, 2015     Apr-13-15 Dubai Chess Open (2015)     Apr-10-15 US Championship (2015)     Apr-10-15 Nakamura vs T Gareyev, 2015     Apr-09-15 K Troff vs Nakamura, 2015     Apr-06-15 Naroditsky vs Nakamura, 2015     Apr-05-15 Nakamura vs V Akobian, 2015     Feb-07-15 Naiditsch vs Caruana, 2015     Jan-19-15 Jobava vs Carlsen, 2015     Jan-06-15 N Riumin vs Capablanca, 1936     Dec-19-14 B Jaracz vs Miroshnichenko, 2004     Dec-14-14 Nakamura vs Adams, 2014     Dec-11-14 Kramnik vs Nakamura, 2014     Dec-05-14 N Georgiadis vs A Ipatov, 2014    Dec-05-14 B Khotenashvili vs Dubov, 2014     Nov-18-14 Tal vs NN, 1958     Nov-12-14 Carlsen vs Anand, 2014     Nov-11-14 Anand vs Carlsen, 2014     Nov-09-14 Carlsen vs Anand, 2014     Nov-08-14 Anand vs Carlsen, 2014     Oct-28-14 Karjakin vs Giri, 2014     Oct-27-14 Nakamura vs Caruana, 2014     Oct-26-14 Karjakin vs Jobava, 2014     Oct-26-14 Nakamura vs Gelfand, 2014     Oct-13-14 Bologan vs Dubov, 2013    Sep-05-14 Caruana vs Nakamura, 2014     Sep-04-14 Caruana vs Carlsen, 2014     Sep-04-14 Sinquefield Cup (2014)     Sep-03-14 Vachier-Lagrave vs Caruana, 2014     Nov-16-13 Anand -
