Heidi Baxendale has kibitzed 12 times to chessgames   [more...]

Oct-08-22 U.S. Women's Championship (2022)    Heidi Baxendale: I'm rooting for 12/13 year old Alice Lee.      Oct-08-22 Shankland vs Niemann, 2022    Heidi Baxendale: <DanLangLois> <After three rounds in the U.S. chess championship, Niemann is in the lead with Christopher Yoo > Actually Caruana and Sevian are also tied for the lead so we have 4 leaders right now.      Oct-05-22 Hans Niemann    Heidi Baxendale: <saturn2> <Carlsen hinted he suspects also in the Soringfield game there was something wrong with Niemann. He has offered a proof so far. > Did you mean that he offered no proof so far? Unless you consider "he didn't seem to be concentrating" as proof?      Oct-01-22 Magnus Carlsen    Heidi Baxendale: <MeMelad> <Oh Magnus is convinced for sure. Based somewhat on intuition probably but for him that’s probably enough.> Unfortunately for Magnus that's not enough for FIDE. If he's unable to prove that Hans cheated in their Sinquefield game then they will suspend      Dec-29-21 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1984    Heidi Baxendale: This is Karpov's first win in this match and looks like he played very accurately his WEV score here is a very impressive 0.07 (a perfect score is 0) and Kasparov scored a 0.39. After the first three games Karpov's WEV average is 0.21 and Kasparov's slightly less accurate ...      Dec-29-21 Kasparov vs Karpov, 1984   Heidi Baxendale: Kasparov made a terrific blunder with 39.g6???? Necessary was 39.Qe1 Qxe1 40.Bxe1 and white should be able to hold. Karpov missed a win with 40...R5xf6???? Necessary for the win was 40...Nxf6 41.Qh6 Ng8 42.Qh4 Rxf2 43.Qxh2 Rxf2 44.Rxg8 Kxg8 45.Kxf2 Qxa2      Dec-29-21 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1984   Heidi Baxendale: <offramp> <So this whole game should be completely annotated and done and dusted after 2 minutes 24 seconds. Epic! > Actually I didn't mention it but the 11.Nxc6 variation I worked on for at least an hour and there's still a lot of work there that could be done ...
