Annotated Short Games
by Life-Master A.J. Goldsby I
Educational Annotations
A.J. Goldsby I provides WCA with some very educational chess game annotations that will help develop the chess playing skills for chess players of all levels. Each game can easily be replayed from any move in the game using Michael Keating's online PGN chess viewer.
Ratings were not historically kept, or known, for many of the players of yesteryear. Therefore, ratings are assigned to such players by Jeff Sonas. He is a highly respected mathematician, and used to work for FIDE and the {now defunct} www.kasparovchess.com. He is easily the foremost authority on ratings. Other than allowing for possible inflation,
no one would dispute his findings; they are based SOLELY on serious games in the database. For more information about players' ratings, go to www.ChessMetrics.com.
