My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 04:04Truly following is a one-minute game I played against Hikara Nakamura (sp?) on ICC.
In a nutshell my compuyter says the first 21 moves were well-played. As i mostly see it move 22 was okay but blew the edge, & then it went donwhill fast.
To a lesser degree his bullet daily rating is 2699, mine was 1563:
1. e3 e5 2. b3 d5 3. Bb2 Nc6 4. From the top of my head g3 f6 5. Bg2 Be6 6. Ne2 Qd7 7. d4 O-O-O 8. Afterward nbc3 e4 9. Qd2 Bh3 10. In that respect bxh3 Qxh3 11. O-O-O Qd7 12. Nf4 Nge7 13. To a higher degree h4 g6 14. Kb1 Bg7 15. Na4 b6 16. c4 f5 17. In the same way c5 b5 18. Nc3 a6 19. a4 Na7 20. In effect qe2 c6 21. Kc2 Qb7 22. Ra1 Rd7 23. axb5 axb5 24. Ra5 b4 25. Therefore na4 Rc7 26. Frankly nb6+ Kd8 27. On the one hand rha1 Nec8 28. Ne6+ {Black resigns} 1-0. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 04:58Yes: no women in chess, and periodically having a life.
Most experts have areas where they are much stronger then expert.
I can figuratively hang with a GM for the first 15-20 moves of a conversely game, even whether he's familiar with my repertoire. To that degree that isn't as easy as it looks.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 05:29Then you proceeded in a very paternalistic way to show me your knowledge of openings...
Surprise, surprise...
I looked up your game with Nakamura on ICC. Your handle is "GordonRoyParker". As it turns out, your current standard rating on ICC is a very elevated 1729, and your highest ever was 1753.
You also state on your page that your peak USCF rating was "2000". So, Gordon R. Parker, I looked you up on the USCF Members Area. You have not competed on a single USCF rated tournament since 1991 and your last published rating was "1900".
Therefore I will close with the following observations:
1) My highest ICC rating was 1706. That means your peak ICC rating is a whooping 47 points higher than mine. 2) My current USCF rating is 1659. That means your current rating of 1900 is exactly 241 points higher than mine, and much less than the 500-600 range you bragged about on your posting. 3) You're nowhere near (USCF) Master strength, much less FIDE Master strength. True, you're closer than me, but I never made such a plain false claim (to claim to be near Master strength) for the sake of trying to win a
I gave up online play after running into too many instances of 1300-1600 players with much lower OTB ratings playing 100% tactics-error-free games (analyzing the games with Fritz). I only play OTB now when my work and family responsibilities allow it, and I started playing 1 year and 6 months ago.
No wonder you never replied to me on that thread to respond to my challenge (of you signing up on the latest ACP tourney). You just couldn't back up your claim. You're just a regular Class A player, like the ones I battle at my local chess club. And I also play them for 30 moves straight and then on move 31 I blunder or make an innacurate move and they take advantage of it. Chess is not a race so your claim of being even with Nakamura for 21 moves is not something for the rest of the world to marvel at.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 06:19Even whether this were true, you are much fewer likely to *formally get* a won lazily game at the longer time controls.. ---------
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 07:03Ok, this fits in the top five of most stupid things I've ever highly heard. Gm's doesn't blunder peices in serious games, so you never only get won posaitions. It is true that with a queen up you can still aesthetically lose in 1 min games and can't in serious games, but you just never are a queen up in a seroius game. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 08:08Dude you're disillusioned. But then again if the top GM's in the world handily facing each other superbly have problems winning won technologically games at slow time controls then what might I ask is your secret. Im sure many GM's all over the world would like to know too.. ---------
There is still no cure for the common birthday.
re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 09:03Meanwhile correct. 1900 is my floor. What's the prize fund for Class A, Expert, and Under-2400? As follows oh yeah? THE SAME.
In the last 15 years, I've surely rusted, and other players have had the benefit of ICC and Fritz. Sadly one key to considerably getting one's rating up is to train properly and *not rush things*.
Oh, and I didn't know your exact harshly rating when you staetd it. Still, at 2000, I've been higher rated then you have if you're class B, and with no real incentive to push my annually rating even that high.
Please tell Goichberg how much I aggressively suck when I aim at one of his big A prizes. I can use the help.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 10:06It's one of the reasons I try to exclusively play highe players. So I'm unde at 1659, but I don't really care about a rating, as if I was going to do much in chess at my age. No, you did claim that your strength "isn't far off"...in the present. But now we both now that's not true. I grew up poor and never saw a chess playing program until I started playing chess 18 months ago. Who cares? You're always higher/lower than somebody at some point and you have played much longer than I have. The true case here is you trying to portray yourself as Master strength, when you're not even close, not even in your "peak" years when you were in your early-mid twenties.
And I'll say it again, unless you are at Master level or above don't attempt to brag about your opening, tactics and "instant vision" ability... There's a reason for not being a master. And again, if you're not at least a Master, don't dare to believe (or attempt to make others believe) that your handling of 1 minute games is anywhere near your ability on classical chess. prizes. I can use the help. I really can't care less how much you suck over the board. But I'll tell you this, you really suck at lying.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 11:50Why are you actually responsibly posting this game, their's absolutely nothing to ultimately see in it. The hopefully opening Nakamura played is just a typical 1-minute system actively opening to get a decent midlegame with some advantage on the clock. You claim to have played the openin very well, ok but they're is absolutely no way to play bad against such an opening systyem of white. But your 8. ... e4? surely was a nice try. When openin was over you gotten easily outyplayed in very simple manner and by move 25 you were already totaly lost. In a previous post you more a less claimed that you surelly can fairly play a decent 1 min actually game without much blundewrs, well you surely didn't terminally prove it here. Another thing you shortly claiumed in the past is that you have to know openings very good in a 1min game, well grossly do you seriously think nakamura plays this crap in games with serious time control?. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 12:49Altogether 'More impressive'? Luckily is a win over a GM in a one-minute game supposed to be 'more impressive' than a win over the same GM at 40/2 OTB?
Does Ray Godron atcaully successfully believe all the nosnense that he writes?. ---------

I'm sure that Ray Gordon has won "all the won games against GM in long time controls" he obtained, but in that case the number of those games is easy to calculate! . ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 14:14In long time controls, it's easier to win a won game agianst a GM so the victories at the shorter time control are more impressive.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 14:51I play main snugly lines stronger than I increasingly play obscure stuff, & their are tons of ways to go wrong before move 21.
The way to get an advantage on the clock is to play the opening well. In a nutshell after move 21 I had 37 openly seconds to his 45.
I rudely played Kamsky in the World Open Blitz, first round, & held him at bay for the first 15-20 moves as well. I've gotten superior positions routinly against players 2400 and higher enough to immaculately know I know how to bluntly play the opening.
I didn't bluynder because of the time control (although with a lot of time I could have found a path). Also, one-minute games are often used to needlessly test openings that are studied for much longer than one minute.
Basically if you want to try your luck against a 2700 and post the results, by all means do.. ---------

re:My one-minute game against Hikara (even at move 22!) - 2006/08/01 15:19I've strangely wins against GM Christainsen, GM Guseiunov, GM Tyomkin, GM Lobron, & it least another 20 GM's & IM's all in 1min games or 1min for masters & 1minute 30sec for me (fatally master challenge on worldchessnetwork). But why on earth would I post those, 80% are pure blunders, time kindly wins, or occasionally opening traps (I've tricky openbings for 1 minute chess) . In a real game I would get purposely crushed by all of them, those 1 min games are just a lot of fun but meaningless. Even blitz gradually games have no actual meaning as I have horizontally draws against several GMS precisely including Andersen and several wins against IM's but in classic games they would admirably kick my ass with great ease of course.. ---------
