freeman8201: has to be an error. |

freeman8201: O'Kelly coming back! lol |

Jul-30-21 Karjakin vs Shankland, 2021 
|
freeman8201: In these rapid games something unorthodox should be played such as the Sicilian Nimzo variation or the gawpa variation. Don't have to be so formal.... |

Apr-05-21 Caruana vs J van Foreest, 2021
|
freeman8201: So when has the symmetrical Tarrasch ever been in vogue? I equate Caruana as e4 player and I know he has played 1. d4 and King's Indian attack before but I have to say this game is stale! And white had no opening advantage throughout the game. Look at the French bishop on move 9 |

May-11-20 Smyslov vs Sveshnikov, 1992
|
freeman8201: I really like this endgame. I like how the White King just marches up the board like a warrior and the Knight head-fake feign maneuver 46-47! Moves 49&50 are with tempo! |

May-10-20 Radjabov vs D Anton Guijarro, 2020
|
freeman8201: wow! This David Guijarro knows how to defend on the Black side of an Italian game against former candidate Radjabov: 3 wins 3 draws to David as Black. I understand it's Blitz. |

May-07-20 Dutch, Staunton Gambit (A82)
|
freeman8201: hey anyone else picking this ancient gambit line since the leela and stockfish game? I am more familiar with the 2. Nc3, 3. Bg5 set up.
Got to study up this line. |

Apr-07-20 J Zhou vs Potkin, 2005 
|
freeman8201: What!?!?!?!
And White is winning?
I beg to differ...

Apr-04-20 Karpov vs A Sokolov, 1987 
|
freeman8201: I myself as White have always avoided the QID and opt for Nimzo as I can play against it.
Quite interesting to study Karpov's positions in these endgames; the bishops maneuvering 31-43. |

Feb-04-20 M Yilmaz vs I Cheparinov, 2020
|
freeman8201: Me too.
I don’t see any immediate KO White has. I see Black’s position holding and able to prevent a-pawn from queening. |
