Apr-27-23 Nepomniachtchi vs Ding Liren, 2023    dannymay: So... Ding made a speculative exchange sacrifice (with Black) that didn't accomplish all that much; then he built a fortress and pretty much forced a draw... leading into Game 14 in which he plays White. It's still only half a point, but I think it counts for a little more than ...      Apr-20-23 Ding Liren vs Nepomniachtchi, 2023    dannymay: WOW! A couple of hours ago the dancing rook was warming up... now, with more of the same blunders, it could go either way.      Apr-17-23 Ding Liren vs Nepomniachtchi, 2023    dannymay: I haven't enjoyed a WC Match this much since the K-K era. Keep it up, guys!      Apr-13-23 Ding Liren vs Nepomniachtchi, 2023    dannymay: Does 1. h3 have a name?      Apr-10-23 Ding Liren vs Nepomniachtchi, 2023    dannymay: Have we ever seen two players look less interested in playing a world championship match?      Dec-20-22 S Shipov vs S Ivanov, 1991    dannymay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yt...      Oct-17-22 K Shanava vs I Cheparinov, 1995    dannymay: <saturn2: 37.Qxg7 winning requires a glance 37.d6 some thought> Great point-- as they say in (American) football, that receiver is not covered and has a clear path to the end zone.      Sep-26-22 A Powers vs A Dake, 1937    dannymay: Why is this even a puzzle?      Jul-11-22 Spassky vs Fischer, 1972    dannymay: Along with Desmond Tutu, the most consequential black bishop in history.      Dec-08-21 Carlsen vs Nepomniachtchi, 2021    dannymay: Having all but secured his title defense, Magnus probably wants to go home ASAP. I think he will certainly play hard for a win here, stopping just short of risky attacks. Nepo, on the other hand, must risk another loss in order to fight for a desperately-needed victory.
