chessworm has kibitzed 40 times to chessgames   [more...]

Jul-01-20 Spielmann vs B Hoenlinger, 1929    chessworm: Will 19...♕xf6 any better than ♘xf6? I can't see how white can refuse trading of queens in that line and possibly gains some time to activate his inactive pieces.      Jul-01-20 Spielmann vs Eliskases, 1932    chessworm: Can't believe this is not made "Game of the Day" yet!      Mar-28-16 World Championship Candidates (2016)    chessworm: Theoretically, does Anand have any chance left? Or is it only between Caruana and Karjakin?      Jun-17-13 C Samarian vs G Gennari, 2005    chessworm: How 41.Qg5 is better than Qf8+? The only thing better than taking a Q off the board for a R is mate, but I am not seeing any !      Mar-28-13 O Chernin vs E Schiller, 1998    chessworm: <HeMateMe> I first tried to work Rxg2 as well. But, could not find the play after Qxg2. Kxg2 is just suicidal      Feb-26-13 Naiditsch vs Anand, 2013    chessworm: Why isn't 11.. ♕xe4 considered as an exchange sacrifice from Black?      Feb-18-13 Alekhine vs B Verlinsky, 1918    chessworm: Nice game. I don't the think pun's intention is to promote that site, rather to state that Boris has entered Alekhine's net :)      Feb-04-13 P Ravn vs Portisch, 1957    chessworm: Instead of 34... b6, what if black had played 34... ♖h2+ ? If white plays ♖xh2, ♕ will retake the rook with a check and against an undefended King/Rook/Bishop Queen+Rook combo can atleast gain a piece. For eg. 35. ♖xh2 ♕xh2+ 36. ♔f1 will cost ...      Aug-30-12 V Timofeev vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1970    chessworm: <computer chess guy> After 23. ♕b8, instead of ♘h2+, ♗lack can play .. fxg3 Δ 24.. ♘e3#. If White plays 24. ♕xg3 ♘e3+ costs the Queen. 24. ♖d3 ♘e3+ 25. ♖xe3 ♗h3+ 26. ♗g2 ♕xa8      Sep-29-11 Kmoch vs Rubinstein, 1926    chessworm: After seeing this position, though ♖f3+! is evident, I tried to see some win for black for ♖h3. Finally, when I am convinced, there is no way for White to win for this, Qxh3 is upsetting :( Unfortunately, out of 3 ways black can take the rook, 2 give win for black ...
