bigmell has kibitzed 28 times to chessgames   [more...]

Nov-24-15 Kosteniuk vs E Paehtz, 2015   bigmell: This is a forced draw? I am sure I would lose this position with black if white plays a couple waiting moves.      Oct-06-14 A Ushenina vs O Girya, 2013    bigmell: for what its worth fritz showed a mate in 12 on move 85 Anna Ushenina - Olga Girya, Women Grand Prix Geneva 2013 [DIAGRAM] Analysis by Fritz 13: 1. (#19): 85...Ke1 86.Ke3 Kd1 87.Bf5 Ke1 88.Nc3 Kf1 89.Ne4 Ke1 90.Bg4 Kf1 ...      Jun-24-14 Marvin Dandridge   bigmell: He just played his first tournament in 15 years. Its was a memorial tournament for a guy who ran one of the longest running Chicago tournaments Tom Fineberg. He won the tourney 4-0. Interesting because he is usually always at the big tourneys but he never plays.      Dec-15-13 Aronian vs I Zaragatski, 2004   bigmell: I guess once you get good enuf you dont have to face the chigorin anymore. Carlsen's only played it twice.      Dec-07-13 Kasparov vs Karpov, 1987    bigmell: world champions are no match for you on your sofa      Dec-06-13 Kramnik vs M Ezat, 2013    bigmell: *wave* Hi Natalia! Im a fan :)      Sep-29-13 S Tennant vs Seirawan, 1979    bigmell: I talked to him in person at the South Suburban chess club outside Chicago and he told me about this game. Pleased to see it. I also played him in a simul. He won.      Sep-17-13 J Haarr vs M Ashley, 2012   bigmell: Yea white didnt play c4 but I think in this case it is just a gruenfeld/KID/Benoni that is easier for black. There are lines like these in the colle system I think, the colle system is essentially the queens gambit without c4.      Sep-17-13 Kuzubov vs M Ashley, 2012   bigmell: Guess it was kinda drawish until move 36. ...Be6 leaving himself an isoloani. Still seems kinda passive      Sep-17-13 M Ashley vs V Bharat, 2012   bigmell: After a 6 year layoff from big tourney play his first game is a Sicilian dragon. Doh... I guess thats why he didnt play a Yugoslav and go after this guy.
