Jul-29-19 Israel Albert Horowitz    transpose: my first chess book was his tome on chess openings. i think it was published in 1957 - ish. As a 16 year old, I remember seeing the book in a bookstore and thinking how remarkable that chess can be so systemic. I still use it to brandish some older variations when I want to ...      Jan-26-19 Hikaru Nakamura    transpose: I am glad Hikaru has a New Year's resolution to improve his classical rating--he has been in a free fall in 2018.      Dec-31-18 Kibitzer's Café    transpose: I joined chess.com to play blitz but the lag I experience at the end of some games is too annoying to accept. Which playing sites have the least amount of lag? Any recommendations?      Oct-10-18 Cinky Boikanyo   transpose: one of the better names in chessgames.cpm      Aug-27-18 Sinquefield Cup (2018)    transpose: Magnus vs. Hikaru = Roadrunner vs. Wile E.

May there be many decisive games by each player.      Mar-18-18 Fabiano Caruana    transpose: <Arconax> His relative weakness in faster time controls: currently 18th in rapid and 10th in blitz on the live rating list.
