| tibone: Chessbase report by Roberto Gabriel Alvarez:
<Ganado son vacas -
Así reza un sabio refrán, que quiere decir que mientras no se remate la faena, no puede uno apuntarse el tanto.
Pocket Fritz 4 ganó una partida no apta para cardíacos, tras quedar en posición perdedora ante el niño peruano Jorge Cori Tello (ELO 2424, ya es MI y en el certamen Continental realizó norma de GM que vale doble). Como ya escribiera en crónicas de las ediciones anteriores, los programas de computación tienen puntos débiles y el más sobresaliente es el mal manejo de las posiciones con enroques opuestos, donde tienden a "cerrar" el flanco donde debería "sacrificar" peones para abrir líneas... Y dentro de esos lineamientos desarrolló "Jorgito" la partida. La jugada 31 de las negras es un serio error, que las deja en posición perdida... pero claro... ganado son vacas dice el refrán.... En apuro de tiempo, y en posición muy complicada, dos errores de las blancas permitieron a Pocket Fritz 4 llevarse su quinta victoria en el torneo, y continuar como líder.> |

| redwhitechess: Susan Polgar post some info on his GM story. Perhaps not a good timing now because Ray Robson is on the height of story this week. |
|

| PhilFeeley: There should be more of his games here. He's an up-and-coming challenger to Magnus. |

| ycbaywtb: i hope they have success in the future, nice to see local support for the kids too====== < Jim Bartle: A thirteen-year-old IM from Peru, whose record in 2008 has been quite good, from what I read. His older sister Deysi is also an IM, and they have lived in a shack in a poor district of Lima.
Now apparently the district govt. and a cement company have built a house for the family, basically to help the kids with their chess.> |

| EeEk: He would be the youngest if he had actually passed 2500 with his last norm. However, he still is nowhere close 2500, so as long as there are no tournaments missing in which he has gained neccessary rating points, the title will be conditional. |
|
| Oct-16-09 |
| ruelas007: well according to fide.com his next rating will be 2460 so that's not quite "nowhere close 2500". But anyways im not so sure, when Giri obtained his third norm was he already gonna be 2500+ on the next "fide period"? coz inmediatly after he obtained the seond place on corus C everybody said (even chessbase) that he was already world's youngest grandmaster |

| Cercatore: No one victory in database. Not fair, i think. |

| jon01: I have never heard of him before. Probably the most silent rise to the top among child prodigies. |
|
| Oct-18-09 |
| redwhitechess: He is going to play in World Junior Argentina, will he in theory possible to goes 2500? |

| Ken Ji jun: Never heard of him, must be a another Julio Granda Z. in the making!
Inca chess is rising in the plains of Cuzco and the high plateaus of Macchu Pichu! |
|
| Oct-19-09 |
| Jim Bartle: Let's hope he has better luck than the most famous Inca chessplayer, the Emperor Atahualpa. He could beat Pizarro and the Spaniards in chess but was beheaded anyway. |
|

| ruelas007: Ken, dude, Peru is much more than Machu Picchu and Cuzco, and Cori is from Lima |
|
| Oct-19-09 |
| Jim Bartle: I think Ken was just trying to be poetic, and Lima isn't poetic at all. Machu Picchu doesn't have high plateaus either, but that's not really the point. |

| PhilFeeley: <Cercatore: No one victory in database.> Actually there's four of them:
K Edvardsson vs J Cori, 2009,
J Cori vs F Benediktsson, 2009,
J Cori vs Runar Berg, 2009 &
J Rodriguez Fonseca vs J Cori, 2009.
But there should be a lot more of them, losses and draws, too. Maybe it's a problem getting game scores from Latin America into the database (?) |

| Raisin Death Ray: <Jim Bartle> Then, what IS the point? :) |
|
| Oct-19-09 |
| Jim Bartle: The point was to call up an image of Peru as a legendary land. Not really accurate in every sense, but Peru certainly has its pre-Columbian legacy. |
|
| Oct-19-09 |
| Raisin Death Ray: <Jim Bartle> I was actually joking earlier. Perhaps an :) would have been helpful. Just remember, you can't spell Peru without PU! :) |
|
| Oct-19-09 |
| Jim Bartle: Sorry.
I never use the smiley because I think people should figure it out, at least if I'm sharp enough. Then I miss other people's meaning. Today's been a bit rough, so I'm ready to overreact, I guess. |
|
| Oct-31-09 |
| Raisin Death Ray: <Jim Bartle> Don't worry about Peru. Aside from Maccu Piccu, it also has llamas. Llots and llots of llamas! :) |
|
| Oct-31-09 |
| Eduardo Leon: I am from Lima and I can guarantee you that it is among the MOST HORRIBLE AND UNLIVABLE cities in the world. |
|
| Oct-31-09 |
| Jim Bartle: Somewhat true, though an exaggeration. Much of the rest of the country is fantastic, though. |
|
| Nov-03-09 |
| Raisin Death Ray: Also, Peru is home to that great soccer team, the LIMA BEANS! :) |
|
| Nov-03-09 |
| Shrunken Head: Great soccer tradition. |

| znnnk: <PhilFeeley: There should be more of his games here. He's an up-and-coming challenger to Magnus.> He won't get anywhere near Carlsen. |
