- ChessNoir.com Nigel Short goes against the beautiful Tatiana Kosintseva, whom Garry Kasparov says is the best Russian female chess player.
This nice positional game occurred during the 3rd round of the prestigious 2011 Tradewise Gibraltar tournament.
The opening played is the Nimzo-Indian Defence, Ragozin Variation
Nigel Short amazingly achieved a score of 9/10 and a TPR of 2883, claiming 2nd place overall behind the great Vassily Ivanchuk.
Commentary by Nigel Short, GM Simon Williams, and Tatiana Kosintseva (well sort of).
• Nigel Short Vs. T. Kos...
GM Short gives an amazing account of his win at Gibraltar against Tatiana Kosintseva.
"It's a brilliant move, if it works. If it doesn't work, it's a lousy move."
That's probably the greatest and most insightful chess theory ever.
You see, chess is actually really easy. You only have to make moves that work and you will win every time. Thanks Nigel!
I have a running joke among my chess friends that those who play d4 will win, every time.
So far it has yet to be proven wrong. :)
Well that’s a few minutes of my life I’m never going to get back....
@AlanWattParrot Right, I would not call him obnoxious. (Oddball perhaps.) Ironically, I was just re-watching the video of Kramnik analyzing the his win against Nigel in London. I was struck by how gracious Kramnik was, even going so far as to say he had pity for Nigel because these are tough losses to take, and describing a recent similar loss he (Kramnik) had. I wish Nigel were more gracious in victory.
@barsorrro agreed. I didnt even watch the whole video because of his annoying comments.
Post mortems with Carlsen take about 10 minutes.
@jezz0abs Of course, you are just pretending you don't understand.
@AlanWattParrot I enjoy Nigel is small doses, but I think he should learn to take it as well as dish it out. When he's on the receiving end of a beating, he manages not to show up for the post game analysis. See the 3rd London Chess Classic.
poor Tatiana :S
