rogl has kibitzed 345 times to chessgames   [more...]

Oct-13-19 Kholmov vs Hort, 1967    rogl: With 7-men tablebases we can get a verdict of 'draw or not draw?'. It turns out that after 56...Kxh7 the position is objectively drawn. Black goes wrong with his next move. Only 57...Kg8 and 57...Ne7 keep the balance.      Jun-09-19 Caruana vs W So, 2019    rogl: MVL saw 46.Qe5 immediately: https://twitter.com/olimpiuurcan/st...      Apr-28-19 Svidler vs Carlsen, 2019    rogl: I wouldn't be surprised if the next move is a handshake.      Apr-28-19 Caruana vs Naiditsch, 2019   rogl: Magnus saw it during his own game. He mentions it during the post-game analysis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zny...      Apr-22-19 Carlsen vs Anand, 2019    rogl: Well, sesse says if 17. g5 black should answer with Ng8, which looks absolutely miserable. +1.52 is the score given.      Jan-29-19 Samuel Shankland    rogl: From Sam's twitter: "Do me a favor and and never resign another drawn position" - Border Control Agent at SFO while stamping my passport. I really never will live this one down!      May-19-18 Kramnik vs Shirov, 1998    rogl: <catlover: I don't get the pun..."Right to Play"? Is there some back story about the game to which the pun refers?> Yes, they were playing for who would challenge Kasparov. Shirov went on to win this match so naturally Kramnik got the honour.      Apr-01-18 Caruana vs Carlsen, 2018    rogl: Here is a twitter thread that gives an idea on how difficult this endgame is: https://twitter.com/GMjtis/status/9...      Jan-21-18 Carlsen vs G Jones, 2018    rogl: and who can forget Kramnik walking in to a one move checkmate against Fritz.      Jan-19-18 Svidler vs Carlsen, 2018    rogl: The players postmortem can be seen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptg...
