Sep-13-07 N Ninov vs I Cheparinov, 2005    unixfanatic: 18. ... Qg6!! would have been a lot better. 19. Qf3 (any other move is forced mate) Bg4! 20. Rg1 Qa6 and Black is devastating White. And yes, I did find this with the aid of a computer, so I still find the grandmaster's play amazing and brilliant. The possible move is ...      Sep-12-07 G Piesina vs B Nisman, 1968    unixfanatic: It seems White would have been a lot better off after 16. Bxb4. Then 16. ... Qxb4 17. c3 and after whatever Black does next 18. Nxf5; doesn't this give White a better position?      Sep-11-07 Rybka vs Diep, 2007    unixfanatic: Only a computer...      Sep-07-07 A Rodriguez Cespedes vs I Herrera, 1990    unixfanatic: Oh no! Haha, Kd7, sorry about that.      Aug-30-07 Rybka vs Ehlvest, 2007    unixfanatic: Does any GM not look like an amateur versus Rybka?      Aug-29-07 Kasparov vs X3D Fritz, 2003    unixfanatic: This game is such a classic example of how pathetic computers can be in closed positions - it's quite surprising how in certain positions or openings (King's Indian Defense is a good example) long pawn chains can really overwhelm even the most clever of the silicon beasts!      Aug-15-07 R Rodriguez vs Dzindzichashvili, 1976    unixfanatic: Amusing pun on "Roman nose"      Aug-13-07 Robson vs V Akobian, 2007    unixfanatic: Hmmm, interesting. 35. ... Qxd7? is a mistake. 35. ... Qd1+ and the game is over; it's forced mate.      Aug-12-07 Dzindzichashvili vs Fritz, 1991    unixfanatic: I'm astounded Fritz was so weak in this game; even for 1991 this is not very good for a computer. Good thing this guy didn't play Rybka!      Aug-08-07 Z Vidor vs Szen, 1856    unixfanatic: Greed - a mistake often made in chess. It's amazing how if you tempt someone with something they almost always will go after it, even if it's fairly obvious they'll suffer for it.      Aug-07-07 J Milton vs L Kaufman, 1975     Aug-07-07 M Ahn vs T Ruck, 2007     Aug-07-07 Y Aloni vs Botvinnik, 1964     Aug-04-07 Kasparov vs Waitzkin, 1988     Jul-31-07 Torre vs Lasker, 1925     Jul-28-07 A Nickel vs Hydra, 2004     Jul-28-07 Adams vs Hydra, 2005     Jul-28-07 J Hellsten vs Rybka, 2006    Jul-28-07 Ponomariov vs Hydra, 2004    Jul-28-07 The World vs G Timmerman, 2007     Jul-28-07 Kamsky vs Kasparov, 1992     Jul-28-07 Kramnik vs Kasparov, 1995     Jul-28-07 Naiditsch vs Stellwagen, 2006     Jul-27-07 W Schmidt vs P Enders, 1981     Jul-26-07 Morphy vs T Lichtenhein, 1857     Jul-26-07 Nakamura vs Fressinet, 2004     Jul-24-07 Smyslov vs Pachman, 1947     Jul-13-07 Fischer vs Reshevsky, 1958     Jun-01-07 Kramnik vs Kasparov, 2000     Mar-28-07 Kramnik vs Carlsen, 2007
