Jun-08-25 Roman Shogdzhiev    roberts partner: That's WAY out of date, he's already the world's youngest IM. https://www.chess.com/news/view/sho...      Apr-18-25 G Thomas vs E Klein, 1946    roberts partner: No, 1956 can't possibly be right. Klein had a well-known spat with the BCF in 1952 when he refused to play his England v Holland match game, and he withdrew from chess entirely for 20 years. On the other hand 1946 is VERY likely . When I competed in the Lud Eagle blitz ...      Feb-28-25 Boris Spassky    roberts partner: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2...      Feb-20-25 Spassky vs Short, 1979    roberts partner: "A little pocket change": Spassky was paid £1000 by the Evening Standard.

He was seeded 29th . https://mailchi.mp/eb8458f067a4/che...      Jun-25-24 W Fairhurst vs S Fazekas, 1949   roberts partner: Fairhurst blamed his blunder on walking a different route than usual to the tournament hall.      Jan-22-24 E Walther vs L Barden, 1960    roberts partner: My opening prep was spot on and the first 18 moves followed Vasiukov v Aronian 1954 Vasiukov vs Aronin, 1954 which I knew and Walther didn't. Later I got into trouble and there was a zeitnot duel, which is no excuse for missing Qc7+.      Jan-14-24 Dresden (1956)    roberts partner: Uhlmann is not in the picture. The player fourth from left (dark suit, smiling) is Hans Platz, who finished last at Budapest 1952 and later became trainer of the DDR team. The tall white haired man second from right is the former DDR No 1 and postal GM Berthold Koch. I ...      Oct-03-23 Leonard Barden    roberts partner: offramp is ridiculously flattering, those numbers are nonsense. I don't play bridge at all, and bullet is much too fast for me. On average, I play two or three 3+2 blitz daily on lichess, most unrated and anonymous but very occasionally rated as roberts partner where I am ...      May-20-23 R H Newman vs Tolush, 1947     Apr-23-22 L Barden vs W Adams, 1950     Feb-27-22 Fischer vs Tal, 1960     Jun-09-21 Hastings (1960/61)     Jun-05-20 Oliver Penrose     Jun-01-20 Anthony Henry Knight     May-02-20 Magnus Carlsen Invitational (2020)     Mar-08-20 NN vs B Goulding Brown, 1912     Mar-04-20 Otto Friedman    Feb-27-20 Tolush vs J C Thompson, 1954     Oct-11-19 Eltaj Safarli    Oct-06-19 Holman Linnell Brooke     Aug-04-19 Henry Atkins     Jun-27-19 Spassky vs Hodgson, 1979     Jun-05-19 Jacques Mieses     Jun-04-19 Francis Kitto     May-28-19 Edgar Cordingley     May-02-19 Paul Keres     Sep-17-18 Stefan Fazekas     Jul-07-18 B Kurajica vs J Farrand, 1973     Jun-23-18 Vasiukov vs Aronin, 1954     Mar-16-18 Gerald Ellis    Oct-29-17 Euwe vs J Penrose, 1960     Aug-05-17 T Wall vs S N Longson, 2017     Mar-04-17 Klaus Junge     Feb-26-17 Wei Yi     Dec-13-16 Vladimir Petrov     Dec-12-16 L Barden vs Rossolimo, 1950     Dec-11-16 Biographer Bistro     Aug-06-16 Michael Adams     May-28-16 Giri vs Karjakin, 2016     Sep-06-14 Korchnoi vs Short, 1976     Jun-22-14 World Blitz Championship (2014)     Dec-22-13 V Ciocaltea vs J Kozma, 1963     Mar-04-13 L Barden vs C Rivera, 1954     Feb-02-13 L Barden vs Golombek, 1951    Mar-13-12 D E Rumens vs J C Benjamin, 1976     Dec-30-11 E Pritchard vs J Hempel, 1967     Dec-19-11 R J Gross vs J Bolton, 1955     Nov-13-11 Frederick Forrest Lawrie Alexander     Nov-05-11 Andrija Fuderer     Apr-09-11 Gordon Thomas Crown     Sep-18-10 Bent Larsen     Jun-25-10 Arturo Pomar     Mar-30-10 Vasily Smyslov     Mar-13-10 Paul Morphy     Jan-23-10 Corus Group A (2010)     Sep-26-09 Nigel Short     Sep-22-09 Pirc vs Lilienthal, 1935    Aug-04-09 J Hawkins vs R Palliser, 2009     Jul-06-09 J Stopa vs Benjamin, 2009     Jun-24-09 C Kottnauer vs BBC listeners, 1960     May-14-09 Fischer vs J H Donner, 1962     Apr-12-09 L Barden vs J Penrose, 1959     Apr-11-09 William Hartston     Mar-29-09 T Chapman vs F Aleskerov, 2009    Feb-23-09 Aeroflot Open (2009)     Dec-13-08 David Howell     Aug-14-08 World Junior Championship (2008)     Jan-13-08 Elaine Saunders Pritchard     Jan-05-08 Hastings (2007/08)     Mar-31-07 Alekhine vs A Munoz, 1945     Feb-03-07 Thomas E Rendle     Feb-02-07 Veselin Topalov     Dec-07-06 David Bronstein     Nov-19-06 Raymond Keene
