chess61: The "Quote of the Day" by Lev Alburt must be one of the most absurd statements made by a GM. It is either stupidity or blind bias. |

Dec-30-08 E Torre vs Karpov, 1984 
|
chess61: <Travis> Maybe it is a good idea to quote Kasparov on this issue: “I think that Fischer, after the Karpov-Spassky match, probably lost faith in his ability to beat Karpov. It doesn’t mean that Fischer was inferior to Karpov, but for Fischer, psychological confidence was ... |

Dec-13-08 Kasparov vs Radjabov, 2002 
|
chess61: <Mikhail Tal fan> White is three pawns up, Black's Queen is under attack, Black's King is exposed, Black has no attack, etc. It is totally hopeless. |

May-07-08 Karpov - Korchnoi World Championship Match (1981) 
|
chess61: <Slomarko> Your question is valid and very logical. This should not be called a "rematch". Korchnoi had to qualify. If we stick to World Chess Championship terminology, this is not a rematch. |

|
chess61: <Bishoprick> Capablanca is a great player. But, with all respect, I don’t see how Lasker can be number 2 and Steinitz number 3. Karpov has been underestimated by many. He is easily number 2 (and number 1 in the opinion of some). |

Apr-02-08 Kasparov vs Petrosian, 1983 
|
chess61: <crchandler> Absolutely true. He once said "I love playing against the Dutch". I was surprised as well. |
