Look at my "oh-so-controversial" post. It was actually on topic and providing information.
I'd advise you to do the same, or leave. It isn't necessary for you to post in every thread.
Now, you stop acting like the forum police and shut up.

I read all the thread, sorry if sarcasm passes very often over my head. Really I don't care; I'm ready to be flamed 🙂 I've take your comment literally. Sorry.
For those still reading(!), all of DT's games in the tournament, and his simul win against Kasparov, are available at ChessGames.

Tough loss for Dave in round 5. At a quick glance, it appears his decision to force/allow the exchange of all the rooks wasn't strategically wise given that Black's Queen had far more mobility than White's. That's IMHO.
It's a pity, up until the rooks are swapped the game looked pretty even, i'd even go as far as to say white looks a little better in the early middle game but what do i know...

And yes, hindsight is a really wonderful thing when you're analyzing players' games who are much better than you are.
