Mar-17-21 Vachier-Lagrave vs Nakamura, 2021   pajaste: Carlsen invitational qualifier (2021) last rounds saw a bunch these Berliner Lopez draws, as these were games that didn't affect the results. Players probably didn't want to show their prep as the final rounds were about to begin.      Mar-16-21 Carlsen vs Nakamura, 2021    pajaste: (17 ply) 2...Nf6 3.d3 d5 4.Nc3 d4 5.Nb1 Bd6 6.Nf3 O-O 7.Nbd2 h6 8.c3 Nc6 9.h3 Be6 10.Ke1 dxc3 11.bxc3 (18 ply) 3.Nc3 Nc6 4.f4 d6 5.Nf3 Ke8 6.d3 Nf6 7.Ke1 h6 8.Be2 g6 9.Bd2 Be6 10.g3 Bg7 11.fxe5 dxe5 12.Kf2 (18 ply) 3...Ke8 4.Nf3 Nc6 5.a3 Nf6 6.Nc3 d5 7.exd5 Nxd5 8.Bb5 Nxc3 9.dxc3 ...      May-17-20 Carlsen vs Svidler, 2020   pajaste: The only game that starts closely like this in this database is Rybka vs Gull, 2016 it's an expansion to the literature, h5-Rossolimo (colors and moves reversed though)      Apr-30-20 Carlsen vs Nepomniachtchi, 2020   pajaste: This is about my thought process... 1.d4 ... Ah, ok, invitation to play the QGD, QGA, Tarrasch, or some move orderly 1...Nf6 ... Indian game, be it Nimzo, QID, KID, Old Indian 2.Bf4 ... Or London System, allowing some specific QGD, Slav, Semi-Slav, 2...c5 ... this is some high ...      Mar-26-20 World Championship Candidates (2020/21)    pajaste: So the tournament was interrupted. Now what to watch? A friend asked a question that could be discussed here. What would be required for this tournament to be online? Brutally secure (128-bit encryption should do?) connections of course but what else?      Feb-16-20 I Krush vs C Yip, 2020    pajaste: Tried to surprise the youngster, my guess. If white gets e5 in early, black faces endless misery.      Feb-16-20 V Gunina vs Kosteniuk, 2020   pajaste: 17.Nb6 is good says the house Stockfish.      Feb-04-20 Reti vs Tartakower, 1910    pajaste: This game is partly replayed in the episode 'observer effect' in Star Trek :Enterprise 4th season. In the episode Mayweather forfeits to tactical officer Reed on move 6 stating, "you win in five."      Jan-17-20 Firouzja vs Giri, 2020    pajaste: After opening, there are exchanges, and then you are in a winning K+P endgame.      Dec-30-19 P Meijer vs G Oskam, 1915   pajaste: House Stockfish 9 says diverge at 6th to ä -0.63 (33 ply) 6...c6 7.d4 exd4 8.Qxd4 Qf6 9.Nf3 Qxd4 10.Nxd4 Bd6 11.Be3 Re8 12.O-O Na6 13.h3 h6 14.Rfe1 Nc7 15.Rad1 Bd7 16.a4 a5
