kevinludwig has kibitzed 70 times to chessgames   [more...]

Sep-11-22 L Bronstein vs A Yusupov, 1982   kevinludwig: Because 41. ...d4 and its gonna be zugzwang in a few moves      Mar-28-16 K E Steingrimsson vs P Korning, 2016    kevinludwig: could white have drawn with 62. g8=N+?      Mar-28-16 Karjakin vs Caruana, 2016    kevinludwig: why did he skip out on 36. ...Be4?      Mar-25-16 Caruana vs Aronian, 2016    kevinludwig: declared drawn on world chess.      Mar-24-16 Anand vs Karjakin, 2016    kevinludwig: <Because Caruana blew his chances a couple times. One of them was huge.> But even in the final position, it looks decent for Caruana? He is an exchange up and probably winning the f2 pawn?      Mar-23-16 Caruana vs Anand, 2016    kevinludwig: I guess 21. Qxg5 hxg5 22. g4 f6, and black is getting out, eg. 23. Bd5+ Kg7 24. Nxc4 Nxc4 25. Bxc4 Bg8, or something along those lines.      Mar-21-16 Anand vs Aronian, 2016    kevinludwig: not exactly lucena since black is bound to play Rxa4 and have an a-pawn to move up the board.      Apr-11-07 Goldin vs E O Rodriguez, 2007    kevinludwig: is there a reason why black can't play 20. ...Qxa3?      Apr-11-07 O Feuer vs O'Kelly, 1934    kevinludwig: I saw the solution quickly, but I also wonder: how I am supposed to know that white can castle in the given position? I.e. the puzzle assumes that I know castling is still a legal move for white.      Apr-07-07 Anand vs Leko, 2000    kevinludwig: "Starting Out: d4" recommends the improvement 16. Bd3 fxe4 17.Bxe4 Qb5, when white has a choice between 18. Ra5 or 18. Qc2.
