chesstones has kibitzed 106 times to chessgames   [more...]

Jun-26-22 Kibitzer's Café    chesstones: I think those players (Tal, Botvinnik) would squirm in wonder over some of the newer opening variations based on computer analysis...      Dec-30-20 C Yoo vs J Morefield, 2020   chesstones: 29...Rc2 looks faster, perhaps too risky      Nov-28-20 Nepomniachtchi vs Anand, 2020    chesstones: Yes, the foresight of both players is incredible in this game.      Nov-10-20 Shankland vs Xiong, 2019    chesstones: Wow, awesome game! 16.Qxf3 runs into ...Re3 with 17...Qf4+. What a sac 15...Nxf3!      May-30-19 Kibitzer's Café    chesstones: you need to get out more <harrylime      Jul-24-15 Y Yu vs Kramnik, 2014    chesstones: 19...c5 looks better then 19...f5      Jul-24-15 A Muzychuk vs I Berezina, 2014    chesstones: I think your analysis <optimal play> is biased or too hopeful! After 29.Bb8 black takes the knight on h4 and can defend the h7 square with ..f5. Also, after 37.Nxg7 black safely recaptures with the Q.      Jul-24-15 Navara vs Wojtaszek, 2015    chesstones: Navara must have been sweating when he realized his king mightn't be coming back from the point of no return.      Dec-03-14 Morozevich vs B Grachev, 2014   chesstones: Even braver than 31.Bxg6 was Moro's follow-up 32.Bxh5 allowing the loss of his Q for bishop and rook. He must have felt he was winning with Black's exposed king, or at least winning the Q back.      Nov-23-14 Carlsen vs Anand, 2014    chesstones: What does Anand's shirt NIIT stand for?
