noctiferus has kibitzed 278 times to chessgames   [more...]

Nov-08-14 Fischer vs R Burger, 1964    noctiferus: About the "15 puzzle", consider the set of all possible sequences of the 15 integers: only half of these are reachable from the ordered sequence 1,2,...14,15. The second half are reachable from a modified sequence with a single inversion, for example 1,2,....15,14.      May-13-13 Borislav Ivanov    noctiferus: He did it again. Look at the games in http://old-capital-2013.chessmix.com/ or in http://www.messaggeroscacchi.it/?p=... (partite zippate), with a particular attention to the game against Rombaldoni, at move 42, where after playing a game at Houdini's level, he plays Nc6,, ...      Feb-29-12 V Gashimov vs R Kempinski, 2011    noctiferus: From a quick Houdini2.0c blunder analysis (18 plies),it seems that: first, black blundered playing 21...Qd7(eval 8.25) instead of Qxb5(ev 0.78) then white blundered Qa6(ev 0.78) instead of Qa4 (ev 8.25) then black blundered Qc7(ev 5.60) instead of Bc3+ (ev 0.78). According to ...      Oct-07-11 Ehlvest vs Andersson, 1988    noctiferus: Maybe Anderson went wrong at 14th move, allowing a semiopen file against his king. Perhaps better was an immediate 14...b4.      Sep-20-11 Philip Stuart Milner-Barry    noctiferus: <An Englishman> I don't know if it is allowed in CG, but I'd to like to suggest a more smooth and shallow presentation of Bletchley Park's achievements (with a non technical reference to Colossus): Singh The Code book whose reference is missing in Wikipedia page.      Jul-02-11 Airports Authority of India (2011)   noctiferus: <shams et al.> "I haven't studied it and I'm no expert" It's the same for me. This is the reason I asked comments from better players. Looking at some engines evals, and doing some analyses, my impression was that "often (?)" he had to climb up, to recover equality. ...      Jun-24-11 Negi vs Caruana, 2011    noctiferus: <drnooo> Houdini and Komodo find the sac at once.      Jan-17-11 Jurez vs Gasloi, 1968    noctiferus: <dzechiel> Actually, Kg1 and Kg2 are not equivalent: Kg1 leads to your mate, while Kg2 allows: 20.Qg4 Bxg4 21.Bxf7 Rg7 or 20.Bg5 Rxg5+ 21.Qg4 hxg4 , worse      Dec-03-10 Women's World Championship Knockout Tournament (2010)    noctiferus: <HeMateMe> It was a very important town much earlier: founded in 300 B.C. ! Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antioch      Jan-29-10 Corus Group A (2010)    noctiferus: Can anybody explain me how is it possible that in 11 rounds were played 78 games? TXS :-)
