patzerboy has kibitzed 176 times to chessgames   [more...]

Dec-23-22 V Zakhartsov vs G Gajewski, 2006    patzerboy: Chrisowen is one of our most reliable posters. I don't think anyone has ever decisively repudiated any post he has ever made. I am reminded of the movie Blazing Saddles. No one could understand the town drunk and his "authentic frontier gibberish," but no one could make the claim ...      Nov-17-22 Naiditsch vs T Sanikidze, 2010    patzerboy: As always, chrisowen's comment most closely aligns with my own chess thinking, and "doh!" epitomizes the essence of my personal chess style.      Nov-13-22 A Pashikian vs A Yegiazarian, 2007    patzerboy: I didn't find the right move, but did find this to be a very satisfying puzzle. The final move sequence was particularly enjoyable.      Oct-23-22 Tartakower vs Meitner, 1909    patzerboy: Any puzzle I can solve at all is too easy for any days but Monday or Tuesday, and I solved this one within a minute.      Aug-19-22 M Ouakhir vs H Stander, 2005   patzerboy: An interesting feature of this game is that Black's queen knight did not move from its original square until move 59! When it did move it was to sacrifice itself immediately for White's only real threat, the queen rook pawn. I am unaware of any game in which either side had a ...      Apr-17-22 M Bluvshtein vs D Seyb, 2010    patzerboy: Thanks, dave. I knew it had to be something obvious I missed. It's exactly the sort of thing I miss in my own games all the time.      May-28-20 J Grefe vs Korchnoi, 1979    patzerboy: I am amazed there is no commentary on this game until now. For all I know, the moves right through Korchnoi giving up his Queen might be established theory, but the way in which Korchnoi proceeds to guard everything while inexorably expanding and pushing his pawns step by step, ...      Sep-23-19 M Narciso Dublan vs Morozevich, 2015    patzerboy: Lovely, watching Black incroach step by step on White's Queenside and just smother him there. Very enjoyable.      Dec-16-10 Carlsen vs Short, 2010    patzerboy: Quite a comeback in this tournament from an almost disastrous start to win it. Bravo!      Dec-06-10 Kasparov vs Oxford United, 1993    patzerboy: Subtitled "When footballers play chess."
