   May-12-11 World Championship Candidates (2011) (replies)
 
Canuck16: Well, I suppose I hadn't accounted for repetition, which I suppose leaves a gaping hole in my plan. OOPS ! If the repetition rule is allowed, then players who have decided it's time to draw would simply repeat 3 times. If not allowed, then the 50-move rule would allow them to ...

Canuck16: <arifattar: That whole sequence of Knight moves from 45-50 is so intriguing. Why not 47..Kh8?> 48. Rxf7 threatens mate on 49. Rxh7
 
   Jan-11-08 L Babujian vs T L Petrosian, 2008 (replies)
 
Canuck16: Why 24. Nxe4 rather than Nxe5 ? Seems like a strange blunder to me, but maybe I'm missing something ?

Canuck16: 30. ... Qg4 threatens 31. ... Be2 which either wins the exchange or threatens to mate after 31. ... Bf3
 
   Mar-22-07 A Stefanova vs G Sargissian, 2007 (replies)
 
Canuck16: Is there a defense to 22. Rxf6 ? At worst it seems to win a pawn and free the e-pawn to move towards promotion, but likely I'm just missing an obvious defense.

Canuck16: <Whitehat1963: What's best after 42...Rxg7?> Probably Qxg7#

Canuck16: Anyone think there will be a quick draw between Kramnik and Topalov just so they don't have to be near each other ? LOL
 
   Jan-11-07 The World vs A Nickel, 2006 (replies)
 
Canuck16: CONGRATS World Team. My attempt to squeeze a little more knowledge out of this game: Is he resigning because ? 41. ... Qxb7 42. axb7 Re8 (only way to stop queening) 43. Rb3 Rb8 (only way to prevent loss of rook after 44. Rxb5 anything 45. b8=Q). 44. Rxb5 And at this point ...

Canuck16: fantastic ! 'nuf said.

Canuck16: <PhilFeeley> I believe that Charbonneau is semi-retired. I read somewhere earlier in the year that he was going to focus on his career in finance after the Olympiad. Not often I get to cheer for a fellow Canuck, so I'll be rooting for Spraggett ! Though I fear his top ...
