Nov-28-16 Carlsen - Karjakin World Championship Match (2016)    MarbleSkull: Deciding the WC in rapid/blitz, after the players have spent so much time training for a formal match, would be a delicious end. fwiw, it is the best way to break a tie. Most other breakers are much more arbitrary, and simply letting the reigning champ keep the title would ...      Oct-04-16 A Mastrovasilis vs A Marechal, 2011    MarbleSkull: I usually get Tuesdays. The comments made me feel better :)      Mar-28-16 lostemperor chessforum    MarbleSkull: Thanks for running this, <lostemperor>. Fun as always, see you next candidates. The biggest mistake I made was underestimating Karjakin. He had a great tournament, props to those who predicted it.      Mar-27-16 Caruana vs Svidler, 2016    MarbleSkull: sure cowchew: http://worldchess.com/broadcasts/eu...      Mar-24-16 Anand vs Karjakin, 2016    MarbleSkull: This is likely a draw. -The Berlin has a history of draws. -Anand vs Karjakin has a history of draws. However, -Anand's three wins have come with the white pieces. -He has already cracked one Berlin this tournament. It's also possible that, with the end coming soon ...      Mar-12-16 Tal vs Petrosian, 1974    MarbleSkull: Ah the hater, the internet flame-dispenser that thinks message boards are for them alone. If the effort to skip over a comment you don't like is too troublesome, then perhaps you shouldn't bother to load the page at all. How can someone who doesn't appreciate dedication and ...      Mar-09-16 World Championship Candidates (2016)    MarbleSkull: Anand has the most xp qualifying for the WC, and I think he plays his best in such events. Caruana is my second choice.      Mar-29-14 Kramnik vs Topalov, 2014    MarbleSkull: Maxi, I can't speak for Petrosianic, but it reads like he was trying to respond to Marmot's assurances that someone would point out the mistakes.      Mar-28-14 World Championship Candidates (2014)    MarbleSkull: I wouldn't even fault Anand for taking that early draw with an advantage in that super sharp position. He's got a strong lead, and if the pace continues he has it locked. Increasing the variance of the tournament might lead to a more impressive finish but it also gives those ...      Nov-22-13 Anand - Carlsen World Championship Match (2013)    MarbleSkull: Anand was world champion when I first started following competitive chess, and I've enjoyed watching him defend his title over the years. That said, Carlsen has been a good winner, and that's admirable. Can't wait to see what his reign is like.      Sep-30-13 Gelfand vs Grischuk, 2013    Jun-03-13 FIDE Grand Prix Thessaloniki (2013)     May-01-13 Alekhine Memorial (2013)     Mar-24-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)     Mar-15-13 Chekhov vs H Gruenberg, 1983     May-30-10 Portisch vs Lengyel, 1964     May-14-10 K Aseev vs V Nevostrujev, 2002     May-13-10 G Abrahams vs J H Beaty, 1962     May-12-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010)     May-09-10 I Rogers vs Shirov, 1990     Apr-29-10 Moeller / Moeller vs Blankensteiner / Holm, 1836     Apr-10-10 A Fuderer vs Najdorf, 1955     Apr-10-10 A Young vs Kamsky, 2010     Apr-04-10 Smyslov vs K Grigorian, 1976     Mar-30-10 A Lehtinen vs T Simola, 1995     Mar-25-10 NN vs W Donisthorpe, 1890     Mar-18-10 Marshall vs Duras, 1912     Mar-10-10 E Postny vs A Wirig, 2010     Feb-20-10 R Forster vs Kasparov, 2001     Feb-09-10 Van Wely vs S Novikov, 2010     Jan-26-10 V Atlas vs V Aristotelous, 2007    Jan-26-10 Van Wely vs Leko, 2010     Jan-22-10 Dominguez Perez vs Tiviakov, 2010     Jan-07-10 Morozevich vs I Papaioannou, 2010     May-17-09 P Nikolic vs Huebner, 1987     May-09-09 L Milman vs J Fang, 2005     Apr-24-09 Bacrot vs Mamedyarov, 2009     Apr-21-09 Mamedyarov vs Grischuk, 2009     Apr-17-09 Fischer vs Petrosian, 1959     Apr-15-09 Taimanov vs Najdorf, 1953     Apr-15-09 Chigorin vs Schlechter, 1905     Apr-12-09 Steinitz vs Lasker, 1894     Apr-12-09 E Schallopp vs J Minckwitz, 1881     Apr-10-09 Fischer vs Benko, 1963     Apr-01-09 Karjakin vs Anand, 2006     Apr-01-09 M Carlhammar vs M Marin, 2009     Mar-27-09 Morozevich vs Kramnik, 2009    Mar-21-09 Yagupov vs A Korotylev, 2002     Mar-20-09 Anand vs Ivanchuk, 2009     Mar-06-09 Tal vs Timman, 1972     Feb-24-09 Anand vs Radjabov, 2009     Feb-20-09 Larsen vs Petrosian, 1966     Feb-18-09 Kamsky vs Topalov, 2009     Feb-12-09 Gelfand vs Short, 1990    Feb-12-09 F Vallejo Pons vs R Leitao, 2005     Feb-08-09 Svidler vs Harikrishna, 2009     Feb-06-09 Svidler vs S van Eijk, 2009    Feb-06-09 Caruana vs Short, 2009     Feb-06-09 R Bogdanovic vs A Planinc, 1965     Feb-05-09 Nakamura vs U Capo Vidal, 2009     Feb-04-09 Kotronias vs Nakamura, 2009     Feb-03-09 V Gashimov vs O B Vea, 2009    Feb-01-09 Petrosian vs Szabo, 1952    Feb-01-09 Petrosian vs Kholmov, 1951     Feb-01-09 Petrosian vs Furman, 1950     Feb-01-09 O Garcia Carey vs J Bellon Lopez, 2001     Jan-31-09 Petrosian vs Smyslov, 1956     Jan-29-09 Aronian vs Adams, 2009     Jan-28-09 Kamsky vs Aronian, 2009     Jan-28-09 Giri vs T Hillarp Persson, 2009     Jan-24-09 Bronstein vs M20, 1963     Jan-21-09 Corus Group A (2009)     Jan-18-09 Y Wang vs Ivanchuk, 2009     Jan-18-09 Anand vs Macieja, 2000     Jan-17-09 Van der Wiel vs Browne, 1980     Jan-13-09 Van der Wiel vs Timman, 1988     Jan-07-09 A Stukopin vs B Hasenohr, 2008     Jan-04-09 J Heissler vs Kasimdzhanov, 1999     Jan-02-09 F Visier Segovia vs Petrosian, 1968     Jan-02-09 A Bannik vs Petrosian, 1961    Dec-18-08 Szabo vs Dake, 1935     Dec-02-08 Yusupov vs Ivanchuk, 1991     Nov-20-08 Tal vs Petrosian, 1975     Nov-17-08 Ragozin vs Petrosian, 1949     Nov-16-08 Petrosian vs Spassky, 1966
