Nov-15-16 Karjakin vs Carlsen, 2016    TheDestruktor: <peristilo: Man, there must be a win. The engine says -2!!!> The problem is that the engine doesn't understand the concept of fortress. Look at the lines the engine is producing, and see if it does something besides moving the pieces back and forth.      Nov-14-16 Carlsen vs Karjakin, 2016    TheDestruktor: If the analysis from Stockfish is correct, then Carlsen may just have thrown the win away with 49.Kg4, instead of 49.Ke4. Of course, this is just a wild speculation from my part, but I don't think the players have access to Stockfish while they are playing.      May-11-10 Topalov vs Anand, 2010    TheDestruktor: <acirce: This is, of course, completely winning without any particular difficulties. Beats me why ..Kh7 would have been so much easier. Look at the chessok line. Both lines lead to clearly won endgames that will take some time to actually win but where the result isn't in ...      May-09-10 Anand vs Topalov, 2010    TheDestruktor: Not all 0:00 are created equal. Sometimes it is "nothing else to do, go home", and sometimes it is "OK for now, but miss one shot and you are dead".      May-06-10 Anand vs Topalov, 2010    TheDestruktor: Objectively, a won positon for white. But one bad move by a tired player on time trouble and......      Feb-19-10 Topalov vs F Vallejo Pons, 2010    TheDestruktor: In the heat of the battle, the six passed pawns reminded me of Tim Krabbe and chess records: http://www.xs4all.nl/~timkr/records... and click on the link "most passed pawns"      Aug-06-09 Hort vs Petrosian, 1970    TheDestruktor: 21.Nh5 and 22.Nf6+ looks like a killer idea. It turned out to be strategic suicide.      Jul-21-09 Panno vs Larsen, 1971    TheDestruktor: Man, what a game. No wonder there is almost no kibitzing for it today, even being a GOTD. Seems that no one knows what to say (including me). It will take a while for me to really understand this game.      Jul-21-09 Beliavsky vs Bacrot, 1999    TheDestruktor: <Once: Today's puzzle is a rare example of a double-defensive move. Normally, we see moves that double-attack - a fork, a skewer, a pin. Indeed, the tempting 17. Nxc6 is itself a double attack - it threatens both 18. Rd8# and 18. Qxb5. What most of us missed is that black ...      Jul-20-09 Bologan vs Vaganian, 2006    TheDestruktor: The attack after 12...Nxe2 was demolishing. I believe that the best defensive move for black here would be 12...Ndf5. It brings an extra piece to defense, while the white knight can't join the attack because it is needed to protect c3. It also reinforces the defense of g7, ...      Jul-12-09 M Umansky vs The World, 2009     Jul-10-09 Smyslov vs Fischer, 1970     Jul-09-09 Fischer vs Geller, 1967     Jul-09-09 I Rogers vs G Milos, 1992     Jul-08-09 Fedorchuk vs Buhmann, 1999     Jul-06-09 Y Xu vs I Charkhalashvili, 2001     Mar-31-09 Shulman vs B Thorfinnsson, 2009    Mar-13-09 V Pupols vs L D Evans, 1976     Mar-12-09 F Lupi vs Alekhine, 1946     Mar-12-09 Andersson vs G Sigurjonsson, 1979     Mar-12-09 Dlugy vs Alburt, 1990     Mar-11-09 A Davis vs C F Tears, 1944     Mar-09-09 Suba vs V Raicevic, 1985     Mar-05-09 Pillsbury vs Gunsberg, 1895     Mar-05-09 Steinitz vs Schlechter, 1898     Feb-28-09 mckmck chessforum     Feb-26-09 Radjabov vs Carlsen, 2009     Feb-26-09 Topalov vs Kamsky, 2009     Feb-26-09 capafan chessforum     Feb-24-09 Kamsky vs Topalov, 2009     Feb-23-09 A Nickel vs The World, 2008     Feb-23-09 Topalov vs Kamsky, 2009     Feb-23-09 Mamedyarov vs I Kurnosov, 2009     Feb-20-09 Anand vs Aronian, 2009     Feb-20-09 G Marco vs Pillsbury, 1896     Feb-18-09 Kamsky vs Topalov, 2009     Feb-17-09 Morphy vs Duke Karl / Count Isouard, 1858     Jan-27-09 Fine vs H Helms, 1945     Jan-20-09 Y Wang vs Ivanchuk, 2009     Jan-06-09 Plaskett vs J Emms, 1986     Dec-24-08 C Blodig vs E Kuenzner, 1987     Oct-21-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-20-08 Kramnik vs Anand, 2008     Oct-15-08 Anand vs Kramnik, 2008     Oct-08-08 L Schulman vs Petrosian, 1967     Oct-01-08 Evans vs Bisguier, 1958     Sep-30-08 D Minic vs K Honfi, 1966     Sep-27-08 Morphy vs Hart, 1854     Sep-24-08 Reshevsky vs B Ivanovic, 1976     Sep-15-08 McDonnell vs La Bourdonnais, 1834     Aug-27-08 Plato chessforum     Aug-16-08 The World vs G Timmerman, 2007     Jun-30-08 twinlark chessforum     Jun-24-08 A Winster vs S Eira, 1953     Jan-26-08 TheDestruktor chessforum     Oct-25-07 Nightranger chessforum     Oct-19-07 sentriclecub chessforum     Jul-11-07 Shulman vs The World, 2007     Apr-07-07 jepflast chessforum     Apr-04-07 GoldenKnight chessforum     Mar-16-07 kutztown46 chessforum     Nov-23-05 J Bruehl vs Philidor, 1787     Jul-12-04 Kasimdzhanov vs Adams, 2004
