saffuna Member since Jul-06-16 · Last seen Feb-02-23 Formerly posted as "Jim Bartle." Starting today February 18 I am going to address all kibitzers either by their full usernames or by non-pejorative abbreviations. I made a brief exception for <thefocus>. who deserved it. Now I'm making more exceptions, especially for <big terrrorist sympathizer> because of his sympathy and justification for Darren Osborne's actions.

saffuna has kibitzed 60240 times to chessgames   [less...]

Feb-02-23 Kenneth Rogoff    saffuna: <gezafan> also refuses to respond to my question.      Feb-02-23 Jeremy Lim   saffuna: <Even Howard Cosell did not get to see that much moolah.> Is Stephen A. Smith the new Cosell? He certainly has the obnoxious part down.      Feb-02-23 Tata Steel Masters (2023)    saffuna: <Yet, at one point even appears the exchange and two pawns up, where the CG computer assesses as only holdable at 0.00. Which tells you something. And apparently is proven that it wasn't holdable.> Stockfish certainly has its limitations. Especially in the endgame from what I ...      Feb-01-23 Kibitzer's Café    saffuna: < Luckily for Clay there was only 2 seconds left in the round and with some stalling hijinks by his corner he was able to recover from the knockdown and win in the 5th on a TKO due to a bleeding eye of Cooper.> I don't claim to know a whole lot about boxing. But I see Clay ...      Feb-01-23 Hans Berliner    saffuna: <After 1.Nf3 Nf6 the perfect game continues 2.Nc3 Nc6, and then the main moves are 3.Ng1! and 3.Nb1!> Correct. Advancing pawns only weakens white's defensive position.      Feb-01-23 Susan Freeman chessforum    saffuna: <susan>, you're pretty selective about what posts to delete. At least someone had the decency to delete <diceman>'s post celebrating Paul Pelosi getting hit in the head with a hammer.      Feb-01-23 J van Foreest vs Giri, 2023    saffuna: I'm sure there's plenty left to do. Not simple.      Feb-01-23 Caruana vs J van Foreest, 2023   saffuna: <To me it's a kind of psyche job, tricking black into the blunder 25..h4? > Very likely. A nothing move to tempt black.      Jan-31-23 AlphaZero vs Stockfish, 2018    saffuna: I don't understand that.      Jan-30-23 GM Qwert vs R Hungaski, 2004    saffuna: Why do you think the name Hungaski is fake?      Jan-30-23 Hans-Joachim Federer     Jan-30-23 GM Qwert    Jan-26-23 Shirov vs Dautov, 1989    Jan-25-23 chessgames.com chessforum     Jan-23-23 Caruana vs Carlsen, 2023
