Sep-23-10 Carlsen vs L Galego, 2010    rndapology: I can't say I understand Galego's moves here - first 16... Nb4 which nudges White's queen to where it was probably already going anyway. Then, exchanging off the light-squared bishop for some reason (gives up contesting e6). Then, finally snatching 2 pawns and completely missing ...      Jan-11-07 Short vs E Hossain, 1999    rndapology: Thanks for the laugh all! I was just looking up some closed sicilian games and this commentary was just hilarious: "Nosher is so called, because his name is Enamul, which is associated with teeth." and "I am not sure if you were talking to me or not. The name <clocked> was      Apr-30-05 Ivanchuk vs Karpov, 1994    rndapology: Qe3 was a blunder      Apr-25-05 I Yaranga vs V Moret, 2002    rndapology: 20. Rxd1? Why did White resign here?      Apr-24-05 Garry Kasparov    rndapology: Hmm...those photos are interesting.

Kf2 is a stunning move, and further play shows that Karpov saw the exchange of the queens coming well beforehand.      Apr-20-05 Lautier vs Karpov, 1995    rndapology: This was so planned - notice Black deliberately moved the bishop out of the way of the white queen's attack and out of the way of his own rook so that white couldn't recapture the pawn on c5 later. And, black didn't try some futile salvage operation with 17...Rc6 - 18. Bb5 Rc8 ...      Apr-13-05 P Povraznik vs T Gyarmati, 1994    rndapology: 24...Rxa2!!      Mar-17-05 I Rogers vs Huebner, 1988    rndapology: Well...black had to put something on the e-file. It's the only way to stay alive. I stopped looking after Qxc8 because I thought that the forced blockage of the e-file would make black lose a peice guaranteed.      Mar-17-05 C Spencer vs J Harris, 2004   rndapology: Did you go to this tournament Klash?
