Feb-27-22 Firouzja vs Aronian, 2021
|
TheBirdman33: This probably being the last round of the day the players (will check that out and add it) must have been very tired, but 15...Qc8 must be a big questionmark move, 21...Be4 is a blunder, really, as white can snap the B off with the rook, after which Nf5 is the killer, forcing ... |

TheBirdman33: Sorry to run a few weeks late following my latest post here - I am involved in a legal procedure that caught me by surprise --all is well now though-- but I had to stay away from any distractions for a while in order to get a grip and run things smoothly. <Jessica> Thanks |

Feb-03-22 Kashdan vs A Asgeirsson, 1937
|
TheBirdman33: How instructive the way Mr Kashdan develops the light pieces after 1.d4 b5 -- a Polish Defense system. At first I thought the resignation was rather premature, yes there are two pieces attacked by the Queen, but after castles and Queen takes Knight, and Nb6-d5, the white queen ... |
