| aw1988: Kramnik up against Topalov and Anand in 2006. Very interesting... |

Nov-13-06 Kramnik - Deep Fritz (2006)
| |
| aw1988: You follow the Kasparov-Fritz mold. |

Nov-13-06 Paul Morphy
| |
| aw1988: Pro. Because while every amateur loves to look at Morphy's games and nobody else's, sigh, they were based on a more sound foundation than Anderssen. |

| aw1988: As enticing as it may be, I'd be sorry if I wasn't a casual dipper. |

Nov-12-06 Svidler vs Grischuk, 2006
| |
| aw1988: Probably his stamina, I think he admitted this himself once. But that isn't usually health related. |

Nov-12-06 Yuri Averbakh
| |
| aw1988: I don't see why Averbakh's quote on Tal is taken so badly by talisman. Tal was always a playful person, it is not meant to say that he is less of a human being... it is endering, not spiteful. |

Nov-12-06 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)
| |
| aw1988: <OK, let's set aside Kramnik's previous behavior> Except that his previous behavior has mostly been stellar. Of course he has to play challengers but that doesn't mean we should set aside his earlier behavior - to put it that way sounds like we're giving him a second chance. |

Nov-11-06 Rybka (Computer)
| |
| aw1988: That's due to Rybka's superior play in general... I doubt Rybka played 2...e5 and thought okay, gotta get into a position with a mate in 18. Full congratulations to the developers and such and the usual praise that comes out of this situation but this mate argument is flawed. |

| aw1988: Poor king didn't get much use... |
