Apr-22-25 Grenke Freestyle Open (2025)    boz: One final word from me on freestyle versus classical chess and then I'll shut up. The problems in modern chess (computer prep, bloodless draws) only affect a tiny fraction of the world's elite players. For the vast majority, the problem doesn't exist. Jumping on the freestyle bandwagon ...      Dec-11-24 D Gukesh vs Ding Liren, 2024    boz: The c8-bishop did not move until 38...Bd7. Takes a lot of patience and nerve to play the French.      Dec-09-24 Ding - Gukesh World Championship Match (2024)    boz: <Atterdag: <goodevans: Ding’s two losses came as the result of blunders but Gukesh’s have been as the result of being outmanoeuvred and outplayed, particularly in today’s. ...> That's also my interpretation, not only of the decided games but of the match as a whole. It ...      Oct-20-24 United States Championship (2024)    boz: As shown by Chirila, Neimann played a nice manoeuvre to seize control of the c4-square. He continues to show his mastery of the Italian game often with out-of-the-box thinking in the middle game. He would later let his advantage slip but Mishra blundered in time pressure and lost the ...      Oct-18-24 Kirill Shevchenko    boz: <olavi> are you trying to argue that somebody's rent won't get paid because they refused to play Schevchenko? We're not talking about rumors here or vague speculation. if other GMs take a principled stand and don't play him, it's Schevchenko's rent that would go unpaid.      Aug-29-24 Sinquefield Cup (2024)    boz: <atterdag> with all due respect I don't understand your post about Ding. Have you never wished for something that, once obtained, you regretted? There's even a Chinese proverb about that.      Aug-21-24 Caruana vs Firouzja, 2024    boz: Alireza is like the daring young man on the flying trapeze.      Aug-12-24 Hans Niemann    boz: It seems pretty clear to me that Magnus, with a helping hand from chessdotcom, tried to snuff Neimann's career. A lesser man than Hans would have crumbled.      Jun-12-24 12th Norway Chess (2024)    boz: That was the tournament that convinced me Carlsen was the real deal.      Apr-24-24 Caruana vs Nepomniachtchi, 2024    boz: If Caruana had won this game it would have been one of the greatest victories of his career. It's going to be a while before he can get this one out of his head. Chess can be devastating.
