| mikejaqua: RIP GM Evans. I think he was one of the 10 best native-grown US GMs. Sad to see him gone. |

Apr-14-10 Philadelphia Open (2010)
| |
| mikejaqua: Actually this looked like a rather poor performance by Kamsky. Four draws in 9 games, against opponents rated more than 100 point lower than him? Not impressive. His Rp was 2663 if I read it right. That's not gonna get him anywhere against Anand or Topa. |

Jan-21-10 Corus Group A (2010)
| |
| mikejaqua: I predict that Shirov's winning streak will stop once he comes up against the big boys; Carlsen, Anand, Kramnik, Chucky. So one more win, then draws. |

Dec-15-09 London Chess Classic (2009)

| mikejaqua: Say! With today's win, Mickey will go back over 2700 I do believe. May even overtake Short. |

Oct-01-09 Pearl Spring Chess Tournament (2009)
| |
| mikejaqua: Three wins in the tournament. ALL of them Carlsen's. And it'd be 4 wins for Magnus if he hadn't gotten into time trouble yesterday.
Maybe he should play them all at once in a simul. |
