ycbaywtb: i was using the search key to look at opponents Nakamura has faced, and found he has actually defeated Karjakin in a match a few years ago, look which 3 players Kasparov pointed out a few years ago, according to this old post. Sergey Karjakin vs HIkaru Nakamura (41) Caruana,F () - Andreikin,D () [B45] 8th Tal Mem Blitz Moscow RUS (9), Red1 Rc7 - (Nakamura now employs accurate defense, noting that Nimzovich's Law of Rook's on the opponent's 7th Rank of play would strike him in the heart, he attempts to prempt this attack; however, the inherant initiative and strength of Karjakin's position will prove enough to overwhelm the Former player's most accurate wishes) Chess Grandmaster Varuzhan Akobian presents a lecture on the game featuring the Gruenfeld Defense between GM Hikaru Nakamura and GM Sergey Karjakin from. Hikaru Nakamura vs Garry Kasparov - St Louis Blitz - Duration: Karjakin vs Anand | Tal Memorial Blitz - Duration: ChessBase India , views. Cemoblanca: Nak Nak Nakin on Karjakin's door. ;) Great game. Feb morfishine: I agree with you that the game you mentioned: Nakamura vs Gelfand, is striking, more exciting and better than this one (though Naka's win here is very impressive from a positional standpoint) I guess prefers catchy puns vs the better.

He's not saying or even implying anything about how well you play chess. He's probably well read but nothing more.

He's got a few kiddie skills but that's it. He is just some patzer that even a self-entitled player like me will easily dispose off.

I don't know why he always avoids "internet" challenges even from fellow Filipino posters here when he plays almost everyday on chess. You are quite right.

They are both well informed, well read patzers but patzers nonetheless. It's part of the hindsight kibitzing fun. We revel in it. But I'm well known in Scotland if ever there I'm always up for a few skittles games.

The things I miss having that poster in la-la land He is just some patzer that even a self-entitled player like me will easily dispose off Off you go.

HomerSimpson - When you said hindsight is the kibitzers domain it sounded like you were implying that I don't play. So why don't we play a match on the internet to see who really knows what they're talking about?

My claim is your a patzer and your judgement really doesn't count. You are a rookie. But it is never too late to look and learn. If you read it, then it's me who is using hindsight and if for one second I thought you were a beginner to chess I'd be the last person on earth to throw an insult at you.

I play on Red Hot Pawn. I only have one game on the go ATM as I have somehow hacked my way the final of a tournament and am expecting games to start any day now.

If Nakamura is a resourceful attacker and Karjakin really is the "Minister of Defense," then the thought experiment of "irresistible force vs immovable object" yields us this in statistical terms: That's right -- it's a dead heat.

Nakamura vs Karjakin 41 Karjakin - Nakamura Match C45 Scotch Game 2. Karjakin vs Nakamura 60 Karjakin - Nakamura Match B01 Scandinavian 3. Nakamura vs Karjakin 39 Karjakin - Nakamura Match B53 Sicilian 4.

Nakamura vs Karjakin 55 Karjakin - Nakamura Match B23 Sicilian, Closed 6. Their FIDE ratings are nearly equal. Nakamura gets a little more exerience, tightens up his opening repetoire, and of course he can play Radjabov.

If this wasn't the case then Garry Kasparov would not have said in his recent chessbase. I think the question might actually be whether Radjabov could be competitive with Naka, given the latter's form of late.

His big three for the future were Nakamura, Karjakin, and Carlsen. Despite my mistake, I guess you're in agreement with me. Certainly Carles, Naka, and Karjakin are not significantly better Radja as of the current moment.

But I'd also say that Radjabov has the least potential of the four. At least that's how it appears to me at the moment.
