Page 46 of Norway Chess Tournament (2014). Context: There was talk on the page about how the two Norwegians in the tourney, Carlsen and Agdestein, were paired in the last round, and that the latter would drop his game against Carlsen to enable him to win the tournament. |

England had to qualify against the European teams like Spain, who are already knocked out. how good is Spain, if they couldn't even survive two games? Looks to me like the Central American teams the USA qualified against are doing pretty well. Certainly Costa Rican has held up. Mexico is winning. Ghana is no pushover.> >From <HeMateMe> on her expert knowledge of "soccer!". 😄😄😄😄 |

Jul-16-14 | | Jim Bartle: 1d410: Just squandered 200 chess bucks
Conrad93: In their two other Sicilian games, Lagrave won without much trouble, so why did you bet 200 bucks? csmath: Perhaps because these other two games were played by 11-year-old Yifan. <Conrad93: 11 years old or not, it's still an indication that Lagrave is the better Sicilian player.> Yifan Hou vs M Vachier-Lagrave, 2014 |

A Kasparov slayer,
With quite an expansive forehead.

Aug-05-14 | | john barleycorn: < bugabay: <Chess King @MagnusCarlsen entering @Tromso2014 #ChessOlympiad! @Agdestein It was like Elvis entering the building :)> Elvis???? Give me a break.... Elvis is adored by millions of girls. In contrast, Magnus is not..... comparing Elvis and Magnus entrance to a venue is like comparing Susan Polgar to Johnbarleycorn who done nothing to impress anyone.... Chess King??? Doubts lingers until he beat Wesley So....until then, the crown is up for grabs and that's Wes destiny...> |
