Feb-18-05 Sakaev vs A Lastin, 2005 
| |
| Wild Bard: Black seemed fascinated by his ability to make threats in this game, a familiar fault at my own level but surprising from a stronger player. Between moves 15 - 23 or so, black goes all out in his quest, sending his pawns sailing forth and leaving an awful lot of weaknesses in his ... |

Sep-24-04 Navara vs McShane, 2004
| |
| Wild Bard: Actually, it's a Robatsch (Modern). The king's knight stays at home for a while to guard the K-side holes while black seeks counterplay in the centre or Q-side. The Pirc involves an early Nf6. |

| |
| Wild Bard: I agree with the opinion that most of the draw killing solutions are flawed. Perhaps the time has come to abandon the "swiss style" tournament structure. Go back to the old way where you had to beat the man in order to move on. If each player gets 2 whites and 2 blacks, and are ... |

| Wild Bard: I've got a question about nomenclature here. Is the position above (1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3.Nc3 Nf6) called the classical, or is 4. Bg5 Be7 needed before it becomes the classical? The Everyman book seems to suggest that the position in the diagram above is technically the classical, ... |
