Oct-14-18 D Mastrovasilis vs N Yakubboev, 2018

atticuscc: It's the correct move order as played. White missed his chance later. 36 Rxa7 [+2.05] is the way to go. |

atticuscc: I'm not sure how Amlani found his way into the tournament. It was an Open - but only up to a point. Had I realised how weak he was, I'd have had 'a quiet word'. David |

atticuscc: <Cibator: Adams shouldn't mess around with second-rate events like the HSM> This is nonsense. Adams conceded a trivial number of rating points, but succeeded in supporting a British tournament. Good for him - and Short! The HSM may be a second-rate tournament by Wijk-aan-Zee |

atticuscc: Elista server down; Chessbase server just crashed too. Too many people watching one crucial game |

atticuscc: Interesting how Kamsky reaches for the threat of violence. Like father, like son :-) Also means he hasn't got much of an alternative defence |

Oct-01-05 Topalov vs Adams, 2005 
|
atticuscc: Black's position has many structural features of a Modern Benoni; therefore OK. A plan might be to play for Rb8, Qb6 and trade a7 for b5 after which B should be fine |

Oct-01-05 FIDE World Championship Tournament (2005) 
|
atticuscc: I can't see Adams hurting Topalov. It's asking alot of him even to stay even with Black after yesterday's mauling by Anand |
