Jan-26-08    nescio: No surprise that Chandler wins, although I didn't know he had returned. I _am_ surprised that Van Riemsdijk participated. I thought he was living in Braxil. Jan-26-08    Benzol: Good to see this is up. Thankyou <chessgames> Jan-26-08    Benzol: <nescio> I think that Herman has been to participate in NZ on at least three ocassions. He has a brother who lives in New Plymouth in the lower North Island. I played him in a simul the last time he was here. He struck me as a very friendly personality. Feb-10-08    Richard Taylor: Hermann all but won the Australian Champs. He gave us an interesting lecture using Fischer's games as an e.g. He met Fischer when he was young. Feb-10-08    Caissanist: Van Riemsdijk says on his web page (in Portuguese) that he "participated as invitee". http://www.hiperchess.com.br/ Feb-10-08    hitman84: Do the Aussies play in NZ championships ? Feb-10-08    Benzol: <hitman84> Yes see Tim Reilly Jul-20-08    Benzol: There have been some duplicates loaded into the database of some of these games.
