transpose has kibitzed 209 times to chessgames   [less...]

Aug-07-22 Anand vs V Kovalev, 2020    transpose: i disagree with the logic the because it is out of fashion at the top level, it must be bad. It is sound and it has had a few years of popularity at the top level (1980s). It is still solid enough but black doesn't have as many dynamic options as in other black defenses that are ...      Aug-22-21 Lautier vs Vaganian, 2004    transpose: There were so many enticing candidate moves to choose from on move 17 for black. I initially thought Rf3 but eventually landed on Bh2+. I should have spent more time on my initial candidate move. Extremely tangled variation tree on this one.      Jul-18-21 Rozentalis vs P Nikolic, 1994    transpose: I found this puzzle rather difficult. Knowing it is a Saturday, I immediately thought of N/gxe6 or only after Rxd7. I decided that N/gxe6 was the way to go and proceeded not to consider any other candidate moves. I felt silly seeing Qh4, which of course might be what I would play ...      May-23-21 Averbakh vs Spassky, 1956    transpose: This game, and this move by Spassy, is why chess will always fascinating.      May-20-21 P Girinath vs Ganguly, 2000    transpose: Kind of obvious once I saw the answer but I honestly was looking for a more violent approach because these puzzles usually always focus on such moves. Great puzzle for this reason alone      Apr-17-21 Khalifman vs Dreev, 1998    transpose: In a tournament situation would I have played this? Probably so, as the first three moves appear best and otherwise black has no problems. But would I have found all the best moves as white did here? Not a chance. Impressive display by Khalifman.      Mar-24-21 D Reinderman vs S Strating, 2009   transpose: White's 25th move would make a great puzzle. Just sayin....      Mar-06-21 R Edouard vs Adams, 2020   transpose: I don't think 41...Rd7 holds. Black goes into a queenless endgame when the b pawn will cause white fits. only two results are possible and black can squeeze forever hoping white will make an error or end up in zugzwang      Mar-06-21 G Flear vs Adams, 2021    transpose: i suppose in the final position white cannot take on e4 or black plays Rf2 and white must lose his bishop and it seems tough to prevent the black rooks from both landing on the second rank and wreaking havoc      Mar-06-21 Lautier vs Adams, 1991   transpose: I am struck by white's errant knight on h7, which allows Black to seize more space and get his pawns going in the center      Jan-02-21 Teimour Radjabov     Jul-29-19 Israel Albert Horowitz     Jan-26-19 Hikaru Nakamura     Dec-31-18 Kibitzer's Café     Oct-10-18 Cinky Boikanyo
