Sep-08-11 Morphy vs Duke Karl / Count Isouard, 1858 
|
notmtwain: "Mar-24-09
chessgames.com: [walker: Why Bobby annotated this game?] ; They were comments Fischer made on a Yugoslavian television show, as he played through this famous game on one of those large hanging demonstration boards." Anyone have more information on this Yugoslavian ... |

Sep-08-11 Fischer vs Bronstein, 1970 
|
notmtwain: There's really no reason to say those are Fischer's annotations since no source is given. In fact, I have looked through the 18 games posted here and I see no source listed anywhere. Does anyone have any info on the source of these annotations? |

Mar-24-10 M Rahal vs Bologan, 2005 
|
notmtwain: 31 Nb3 appears to be the losing move because it gives the black queen access to b7 and c6 (which forces resignation a few moves later). But you can trace the weakness on that diagonal back to moves as early as 10 Kh1 and 14 Nd1 allowing 14.. a3. I know the Kh1 move is a standard ... |
