Aug-24-23 FIDE World Cup (2023) 
| |
| jphamlore: <FSR:> Ha ha. Thanks! <Teyss: Congrats also to Caruana for his fighting spirit.> I am thrilled that Caruana now has at least 9 months to prepare for Candidates. This might be his best chance left in his career to make another world championship match, especially with ... |

Jun-08-23 Smyslov vs Petrosian, 1971
| |
| jphamlore: <Honza Cervenka: The game was probably adjourned at this point, and Petrosian concluded during analysis that his position is hopeless. Immediate 42.Be4 is not the only option of white.> Indeed Smyslov in his Smyslov's Best Games Volume ii verifies that Petrosian resigned ... |

|
Jun-08-23 3rd Cairns Cup (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: I don't know if this position with White to move after 28. ... ♔e8 from N Dzagnidze vs B Khotenashvili, 2023 will qualify as a puzzle. Anyone can come up with the plausible only-move candidate. The real question is whether one can carry the calculation to enough depth to ... |

Jun-03-23 11th Norway Chess (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: And here is the next Chinese prodigy. Depending on what he scores last round of the Dubai Open, this untitled player Xue Haowen might be earning a GM norm. And he just beat Hans Niemann with the Black pieces round 8. |
|
|
|
Jun-03-23 Dubai Open (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: <beatgiant: <boz> In this game, really? M A Tabatabaei vs Niemann, 2023 I'm not seeing where he ever had an advantage, let alone a win.> Maybe the reference is to round 7 versus Volodar Murzin? |
|
|
|
May-22-23 Superbet Rapid Poland (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: <offramp: Kirill Shevchenko is totally duffing up little Giri. A Scotch, and he needs it.> For whatever reason, Giri has never been all that great at rapids compared to his peers? |
|
|
|
May-19-23 Sharjah Masters (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: No one will remember this, but the ending of Niemann - Yilmaz shows the beauty in chess of knowing the technique to draw. Yilmaz playing basically on increment perfectly illustrated many of the concepts of say Dvoretsky's chapter on rook endgames. He may have calculated the ... |
|
|
|
May-19-23 FIDE Women's Grand Prix (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: <Atterdag: Wagner is the only European sounding name here - and then it turns out, Dinara is a (former?) Russian married to a German chessplayer (Dennis W.) :-)> Because to put it bluntly, women's chess in the West is at best something to put on a college application to ... |
|
|
|
May-13-23 Superbet Chess Classic Romania (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: The money for purely competing playing chess is terrible relative to the amount of time players need to train, starting from ridiculously young ages as low as 4 apparently for Ding Liren. I do predict the era of top players not finishing university is coming to an end. Firouzja ... |
|
|
|
May-12-23 Baku Open (2023)
| |
| jphamlore: The Hans Niemann controversy will become a long forgotten footnote, because I predict he will return back to university within a year, maybe within months. He has no future as a chess professional. The alternative sources of income related to chess aren't open to him. |
