| |
| MarcusBierce: <I guess it didn't take the libs long to smell blood in the water with regards to the Epstein Files controversy, but CNN cautions libs to lower their expectations as they hold only a 2-seat advantage right now.> Is Trump playing 33-D chess, getting the Dems to release ... |

Jul-17-25 Seirawan vs Karpov, 1990
| |
| MarcusBierce: This is not a won game by White by the end.
Even after getting a losing position out of the opening, Karpov crawled back into the game. Remarkable. |

| |
| MarcusBierce: <21..d4!> would have been a nasty surprise for Anand. |

Jul-09-25 Karpov vs Gulko, 1996
| |
| MarcusBierce: The players who are positionally dominate like this in queenless middle and endgames are simply amazing. Imagine Karpov and his team decided to go with the Berlin Ruy vs Kasparov. The latter may never have become world champ. |

Jul-06-25 Duda vs Carlsen, 2025
| |
| MarcusBierce: Perhaps Carlsen didn�t want to allow the potential 40.g6 supported by the f5 pawn, yet he had the immediate 39..b3, and respond 40.g6 Qxf5 with a won game. |

Jul-05-25 Karpov vs Anand, 1991
| |
| MarcusBierce: <howard> not entirely true. It’s true Anand had winning positions in games 3 and 5, yet was dead lost and saved by a miracle in game 1. |
