Apr-23-23 Ding Liren vs Nepomniachtchi, 2023    Olsonist: 46.Kf2 Kh4 47.Ke2 Kg3 48.Kd3 Kh3 49.Kd2 Kg2 50.Ke2 Kh2 = 0.00 (104 ply)1/2-1/2 Why does Stockfish analyze after insufficient material?      Feb-27-23 W Davis vs B Wall, 1985    Olsonist: The puzzle should have started at 28 with a mate in 5, even as a Monday.      Feb-16-23 Vladimirov vs D Donchev, 1976    Olsonist: I love Mondays.      Jan-15-22 84th Tata Steel Masters (2022)    Olsonist: When Gustafsson is good, he's quite good. I remember his call with Svidler on the Qa6 sac in Carlsen's rapid playoff against Carjack. But then there's the time when he seems to be drinking a lot of "coffee".      Jan-04-22 R Lau vs Barsov, 1993    Olsonist: A Tuesday making you think it's a Monday when it's actually a Tuesday.      Dec-08-21 Carlsen - Nepomniachtchi World Championship Match (2021)    Olsonist: Nada in New York.      Dec-06-21 Carlsen vs Nepomniachtchi, 2021    Olsonist: <PawnSac> I think you meant 10. ...

In fact, I think 32. Qg5+ achieves the same without the flashy rook sac.      Sep-05-21 Aimchess US Rapid (2021)    Olsonist: I think everyone is too excited about booking up on the Traxler.      Sep-01-21 Aronian vs J van Foreest, 2021   Olsonist: Nice. 41. ... Rxf8. 42. Rh8+ Maybe 41. is a Monday puzzle.
