Apr-01-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    mollyboo: I reckon there ought to be a fresh tournament organized for just Carlsen and Kramnik, best of five. Unless Carlsen wins, in which case best of seven. Unless Carlsen wins. If it is a tie, simply whichever candidate is the eldest. Or get them both on a chat show, and let the audience      Apr-01-13 Carlsen vs Svidler, 2013    mollyboo: Two things I've been amazed at during this tournament - one is the inability of top GM's to get even the basics right - how can certain players lose so often to the time control? What's the point of finding the perfect continuation at the cost of losing the game on time? The second      Mar-28-13 Grischuk vs Carlsen, 2013    mollyboo: Why do people confuse 'even' with 'drawn' ? This position is far from a draw.      Mar-17-13 Gelfand vs Carlsen, 2013    mollyboo: magnus wins !      Mar-17-13 Ivanchuk vs Aronian, 2013    mollyboo: Got a player in our club that would rather lose on time than be outplayed. But really, what's the difference?      Mar-15-13 Aronian vs Carlsen, 2013    mollyboo: I think we may see an Alekhine's defence some time during this tournament. Lots of unexplored territory...      Feb-27-13 R Van Kemenade vs M Gonzalez Amaya, 2008   mollyboo: Haha, I think that all the time ! I never get people blundering like that against me - but there's a bloke on our team who's forever saying things like 'he just left his Queen en prise and resigned'. Not fair...      Apr-11-12 Larsen vs H Smailbegovic, 1960   mollyboo: Tried to follow the game, but the pretentious crap made me give up after move 10.      Nov-29-10 A Rankis vs F Surmann, 1947    mollyboo: this whole line is a well known trap where white is sunk after 7 o-o. More common is 11...Nd5 when white can resign immediately.      Jul-31-10 K Georgiev vs H Pountzas, 2006   mollyboo: How on earth is this an alekhine? It might start that way, but it quickly becomes a closed sicilian.
