Wildcard Game #5



Wildcard #5: SM Jorge Sammour-Hasbun (BOS) vs IM Sasha Kaplan (BAL) 1-0


Jim Dean: This game followed Marshall theory for quite some time, and when the game left theory, it seemed that White continued to play flawlessly. It felt like Black didn't have to go terribly wrong for things to go downhill thanks to Sammour-Hasbun's great understanding of the position.

This selection proves that Jim Dean is capable of making excellent decisions regarding wildcard games. But why was he influenced so heavily by Shankland's groupies to give a watching grass grow type of encounter his first pick?

The only Marshall theory I know of is, if you are black, the Town Marshall is going to arrest you. They'll take a simple misdemeanor like throwing an empty bottle of Vimto out the car window, and trump on charges till you get the death penalty. Have you ever been to a midnight vigil held outside the many state prisons, all it takes is a little homework to find out where and when. These vigils are actually great. They start around sundown right outside the prison gates, and they go until just after midnight or so. Admission is free, and you get to pick which side you’re going to be on. On one side are the friends and relatives of the condemned, along with opponents of the death penalty. These folks always bring plenty of extra candles and they tend to get real weepy. On the other side are the victims of the condemned and proponents of the death penalty. If your going with them, be prepared to do some chanting and hold up signs that say “Burn in Hell!” There’s a lot of drama attached to these events, so whichever side you choose, you’re in for a good time.

to be honest I think it's kinda ridiculous Julius G also makes those anonymous comments in order to introduce himself.

Funny how the censors allowed "censorship blows" comment in order to pretend like they aren't censoring... Do u know what its like to live under communists, how would u like it when they tell u what to think. How would u like it to work 10 hours a day, you make nothin, u got nothin. I eat octopus 5 times a day, I got the Octopus coming out my ears ok ?

How you like- they tell you all the time what to do, what to think, what to feel, you want to be like a sheep, like all those other people, bahh, bahhh, bahhhhhhh. How you like that. I want my human rights, now. Just like the president, Jimmy Carter says.

You know something. You can send me anywhere, here, there, this, that. It don't matter.
