I did not like Kramnik's opening choice at all. I thought his gambit didn't quite work out for him because he surrendered the bishop pair. I do not like the choice of the NImzo Indian in this match. I would have thrown something relatively s... Read more »

The constant Women's this/that or Men's this/that is simply more of the endless fuel for the Man/Woman polarization in our culture. Indeed there are some issues that belong in those categories but they are mostly biological or physiological in... Read more »

The KING can move a single square without restriction made But once he topples from his place, no ransom to be made.
The QUEEN as you might well expect's a dominating dame; She does most anything she wants and quite controls the game.

I agree with GM Aronian's comments on the first game of the WCC 2008. I'll post the the link below so you can read his comments for yourselves, but I think he hit the mark.
"Not again," is how he starts out. As soon as 4.cxd5 was played I think m... Read more »

The diagram shows a three-move tsume(checkmate) problem. It's your turn. You have a Lance in hand. Take care so as not to let the King escape to his upper space. The answer will be found in the comment.

The diagram shows a one-move tsume(checkmate) problem. It's your turn. You have nothing in hand. So you should move one of your pieces on the board to checmate the King. The answer will be found in the comment.

During History class, I was watching the first round of the WCC here on chess.com. I was rather disappointed as to the opening choice. However, I thought that Kramnik was either not prepared against Anand's Slav or was saving his best lines an... Read more »

Since it is much more difficlut to win, or draw, with Black, I propose awarding 4 points for a win with Black; 3 for a win with White; 2 for a draw with Black; and 1 for a draw with White.The three move draws and 'group hugs' in the last round wou... Read more »

This is another huge favorite of both Anand and Kramnik (See my recent blog post on the Sveshnikov/Pelikan). Anand has played this 32 times as Black and Kramnik has led with it 34 times as White. It could very well be the critical game of the... Read more »
