progrock64 has kibitzed 302 times to chessgames   [more...]

May-21-12 Anand - Gelfand World Championship Match (2012)    progrock64: The reaper rulez too!      Nov-11-11 European Team Championship (2011)    progrock64: Hungary - Bulgaria 4-0. Ouch.      Oct-21-11 15th Unive (Crown Group) (2011)    progrock64: Rather the pirc defense though this could be asking for trouble against Judit.      Oct-10-11 Nakamura vs Aronian, 2011    progrock64: When Nakamura played 70.exd4 he must have calculated this forced line: 70.exd4-Kxd4 71.Nd7-Rd8 72.c6-Rc8 73.Re6-Kd5(Aronian played Rc7 instead) 74.Nb6-Kxe6 75.Nxc8-Kd5 76.Na7-Kd6 77.Kxg4-Kc7 78.Kf5-Kb6 79.Ke6-Kxa7 80.Kd7 ...      Sep-19-11 Garry Kasparov    progrock64: <Btw, the fact that Germany played in every single major competition (Euro Cup, World Cup), since 1990 is quite an achievement by itself.> Since 1970 actually. WC since 1954. Didn`t want to participate in the EC before 1972 afaik (West Germany that is).      Jul-25-11 Dortmund Sparkassen (2011)    progrock64: Meier -Nakamura 150 moves and drawn.      Jul-04-11 Alexander Grischuk    progrock64: Imposter = rotten egg.      Jul-04-11 Magnus Carlsen    progrock64: Grischuk: "It seems to me, however, that an awful lot of things were altogether different, and on the whole I’m currently more inclined to evaluate Stalin positively." I hope they were totally drunk during that interview.      Jun-01-11 Jan Gustafsson    progrock64: He won eventually because his opponent could not find a winning line under time pressure. I wonder how Gustafsson could miss that Bb4 combination in the first place though.      May-20-11 World Championship Candidates (2011)    progrock64: Grischuk has the same haircut like Karpov had in the seventies. Good omen?
