 Re: curtains - L42: B vs Gor [IM] (Torre Attack) [23:36]
I have been looking at this game a few times now and looked at other games with similar opening. Good thing is that on chessgames.com I think black scored 36% in the torre attack so black is better.
Anyway what I wanted to say is why not 3. c5? (Morozevich - Anand 2005). I think what you played in the opening was way too passive and actually you seem to have that problem many times in the openings which really lets you down many times. I do not think many of your opponents have better opening knowledge than what you have so....
Anyway..Just an idea since I liked it..=)

You mean ...c5 on move 3? Maybe I'll look into it. I think they go e3, and then I can go h6 or something?

Oh crap you are right, I prefer 3...c5 for sure. Why should I allow this Bxf6 stuff if I don't have to!

You know starting at video 58 the sound quality improves, since you had some complaints earlier. Anyway go to the 2nd page for the "missing" videos.

clwilliams, can you list the numbers of the missing videos? I see there are only 89 topics, but Ive played 101 games...so that seems a bit odd. Looks like a bunch of videos from the 60's. No idea what happened....were they posted at some point?

If you could come up with complete list I could probably upload them again tomorrow when I get home. I still have the vids saved i think.

I don't know what gaps there are past L42 because this is as far as I've gotten. It sounds like there are more of them, though. You're recording them faster than I can watch them.

 Re: curtains - L42: B vs Gor [IM] (Torre Attack) [23:36]
Yeah but some of them are definitely missing. Ive played 101 games but there are only 89 topics in this forum. Logic would dictate that 12 are missing  Whenever someone does the gruntwork and determines exactly which 12 they are, I will reupload them later.
