Jan-25-09 Ivanchuk vs Karjakin, 2009 
|
Ideefixe: At last online for a live game after a long long time. Kramnik isn't around for a sweet Catalan, but Aronian and Ivanchuk are, so I wont complain. Let's see what Chucky has in store and if he can find his form and concentration before it's too late. |

Ideefixe: <zluria> Obviously I do have pics of her but the qs is why would I post them on a site, especially a chess site?! <arkansaw> Aronian's gf wouldnt have a chance , neither would Aronian (on the other hand you can never be sure how a woman's mind work) |

Nov-26-08 Kotronias vs Nepomniachtchi, 2007 
|
Ideefixe: I cannot but wonder what exactly happened on the 22nd white move?! Did Kotronias accidentaly pushed the f pawn a square too many?!
That's the only thought I could make at first. Then it occured to me that under time pressure things might not be so obvious and clear.
OK 22.f3 is ... |

Nov-25-08 Dresden Olympiad (2008) 
|
Ideefixe: Away from the spotlight, Kotronias beats another opponent, playing for the first time on the 1st board, if I am not mistaken and finishing undefeated with 6 wins and 5 draws (2 of which against Nakamura and Vachier-Lagrave).
A superb performance from the best Greek player on the ... |

So as I said a few minutes ago, ... |

Ideefixe: Born in the mid 70s there are very few things I do miss from past time spaces. Not having the chance to flirt Brit Ekland or listen to Morrison performing live or at least stand at the end of a line waiting for my ticket to watch Clint Eastwood smoking cigars. The lack of mojo ... |

Aug-27-08 Alekhine vs Bleye / Bon, 1933 
|
Ideefixe: Simple and natural moves by Alekhine and Bleye blunders on move 15. Still white misses 18.Qb1 and the daring but fool knight is saved, along with the game. Chess blindness can struck on everyone, I guess! |

Jul-26-08 Bacrot vs E Alekseev, 2008

Ideefixe: <Who called it a King's Pawn game? It looks like a Catalan or Bogo-Indian, or combination thereof> Anyone voting for a Queen's Indian?! |
