Play online chess |  Subject: 2nd best "Game of the century
Message:
We all know Bobby Fischer own's the title for "Game of the Century"
I know this is a matter of opinion, but I was wondering what other people think of being the second best "Game of the Century"

I didn't know that.. I think Kasparov's game against Topalov in Wijk aan Zee 1999 is the best ever.

is there a special reason to start a second thread with the same topic?

Final two rounds produce an exciting climax to the German chess league — Russia's national chess league may be the strongest in the world but Germany's Bundesliga runs it close and its media profile is far higher. The final two rounds last weekend began with Baden-Baden and Solingen on 24 points from 13 matches, Werder Bremen 23 and Mulheim 20. Baden-Baden is the cash-rich team and even boasts the world chess champion, Vishy Anand, and world No1, Magnus Carlsen in its squad, though the Indian has played only two games and the Norwegian none. But the active regulars are so strong that Michael Adams, the England No1, plays only on a mid-board in the eight-man team. Werder Bremen, which has links with the football club, fields ...

By the look of the time stamps of the two threads I would guess it was an accident, maybe pressing 'back' and submitted again thinking the first one did not submit.

Robot chess opponent — Hopefully Dennis who is playing with a a robotic arm as his chess opponent has not input the necessary code to have the arm reach over and choke the life out of him should he win the chess match. The Lynxmotion AL5A robotic arm is, after all, full well capable of plucking each chess piece and moving it to the next space. This is made possible thanks to a Python script Dennis himself created to process the moves and decide on the next move. A webcam is used to capture the location of the desired pieces on the chess board in order to help it in its task. ...

The checkmate club — The University of Maryland, Baltimore County may not be the football and basketball powerhouse that its much larger sibling at College Park is, but when it comes to fielding world-class chess contenders, watch out. Its players' victory in the Final Four over three Texas teams at the national college chess championships in Brownsville over the weekend — the sixth chess championship the school has brought home during the last 10 years — is about as good as it gets. The team itself embodies in microcosm the ethic of excellence that UMBC President Freeman Hrabowski III has tirelessly promoted for the entire school and its programs during the last ...

It was Hans Kmoch who called the Fischer v D Byrne game the "Game of the century". Not sure about that but it's certainly a remarkable game for a 13 year - old boy.

Anand v Topalov: who will win this year's world chess championship? — Age... playing style... even gamesmanship. There are many vital factors in the upcoming clash. Vishy Anand defends his world title against Veselin Topalov in Sofia in a 12-game match starting on 23 April. Most pundits reckon Anand is the better chess player, but the stats tell us that in their classical chess encounters Topalov has one more win than Anand. It's only in games with a faster time control that Anand has a big plus score. If the match ends 6-6, Anand will be a clear favourite in the tie-break rapid games. Age could be a factor. Anand has turned 40. Among top chess players that practically qualifies for a free bus pass. Topalov is five years younger and ...
