Sep-26-09 Tal vs Kasparov, 1980    grkoste: "there is nothing like replying to 5 years old posts." As silly as talking about a chess game played 29 years ago.      Sep-23-09 Kasparov vs Karpov, 2009    grkoste: A dose of truth serum is slipped into Kasparov's drink just before the big interview: "But what made you decide to be a trainer for this young Skandinavian talent Magnus Carlsen?" --Magnus has brought himself 99.75% of the way toward becoming the world champion. I figured that by ...      Sep-22-09 Kasparov - Karpov Rapid Match (2009)    grkoste: Kasparov with a big lead on the clock.      Sep-17-09 Nigel Short    grkoste: Yes it does answer my question, and many thanks.      Sep-03-09 Anand - Kramnik World Championship Match (2008)    grkoste: In the first half of their (2000,2008) matches, Kasparov and Kramnik found themselves out-prepared and out-played. Kasparov panicked and went to pieces. Kramnik kept cool and fought back.      Aug-11-09 Vladimir Kramnik    grkoste: I am grossly insulted by Ulhumbrus' post, considering it a personal insult intended to sabotage any further discussion of the non-rematch. I therefore demand that henceforth, discussion of this issue be limited to Ulhumbrus and myself, and that all other individuals be barred from ...      Aug-06-09 Garry Kasparov    grkoste: Interesting points. Karpov peaked during the K-K matches, piling up rating points from essentially breaking even over so many games with the higher-rated Kasparov. Kasparov peaked after the K-K matches; his rating freed from the depressing effect of breaking even so often with ...      Jul-07-09 Dortmund Sparkassen (2009)    grkoste: Nice posts, acirce.      Jun-07-09 acirce chessforum    grkoste: In this matter you and I occupy the same sorts of positions that the U.S. and Sweden occupy in world affairs. A very loose, disorganized assemblage of posters take (overly) seriously the dire threats to the blog-order that could be posed by, say, a half-dozen serially vapid posters.      May-05-09 Silvio Danailov    grkoste: acirce, Thanks for the quotes.
