Slovensko has kibitzed 14 times to chessgames   [more...]

Mar-24-04 English (A10)    Slovensko: As an English player... after 1...Nf6, I play 2.g3 just to spite the opponent, because he/she usually seeks an Indian defense and I don't want to give him/her a "moral" victory by playing his/her prepared defense. Most English players will not play 2.d4 against 1...Nf6 either, ...      Mar-16-04 Ruy Lopez (C77)    Slovensko: This is the ECO code under which the interesting move 5.d4 in the Spanish/Ruy Lopez is classified. Does anyone play this as white? I heard it is similar to Scotch, and has some good tactical possibilities, although I have not tried it myself, because I do not really play e4 as ...      Mar-13-04 Queen's Gambit Declined Slav (D10)    Slovensko: Interesting that the discussion about whether to play 3.Nc3 and 3.Nf3 in the Slav (Orthodox as well) Queen's Gambit has come up, since I was just polemizing on the same thing...the transpositions are very headache-y.      Feb-29-04 Kasparov vs Leko, 2004    Slovensko: Draw.....!!      Feb-25-04 Shirov vs Radjabov, 2004    Slovensko: I am surprised that Radjabov played the King's Indian, as the Bayonet Attack with 9.Re1 gives white quite strong chances. I was under the impression that at the master level, KID was difficult to equalize with as black.      Feb-21-04 Shirov vs Topalov, 2004    Slovensko: Shirov missed (probably due to time trouble) 37. Qd8+ Kg7 38. Qxd4+ followed by 39. Nxe4 after black moves his king. Draw would still be highly likely though, as both kings are open with queens on the board.      Feb-06-04 Reti Opening (A09)    Slovensko: This is one of my favorite openings because it requires great patience and careful maneuvers. Although it often doesn't give white too much, I like to play it as white along with the English/Queen's Pawn. I have one problem with it though...After 2...dxc4, what is the best ...      Feb-01-04 Polerio vs Busnardo, 1590    Slovensko: I do not think that black resigned from the given position...it is more likely that the remaining moves are simply missing/not recorded, since this is quite an old game...my best guess anyways.      Jan-10-04 Geller vs Suetin, 1950    Slovensko: Wow, this would be a good addition to Benjamin Lau's collection about World Class blunders.      Jan-07-04 Gulko vs Salov, 1991    Slovensko: 31...Bxf6 32.Qxh7+ Kf8 33.Qf7#
