| May-14-05 | | paladin at large: <Tigran Petrosian> Not true, Capablanca was two wins and one loss against Riumin. But Riumin blundered away his queen in a complex game in one of his losses, so overall he played Capa pretty tough. His games deserve attention. Ryumin is a more common transliteration from the Cyrillic, I believe. |

| May-14-05 | | Calli: BCM offers a book on Ryumin and Belavenyets. Scroll down the page a bit to see it. http://www.bcmchess.co.uk/chessbook... They also spelled the name with a "y". |

| May-15-05 | | paladin at large: <Calli> Thanks! |

 | | WTHarvey: Here are some puzzles from Nikolai's games: http://www.wtharvey.com/rjum.html |
|
| Nov-21-05 | | Koster: What did he to do to get sent to Siberia? Was it dropping his queen to Capablanca? |
|
| Mar-22-06 | | paladin at large: <Koster><What did he to do to get sent to Siberia?> There were a lot of Russians regrouping in Siberia in 1942. You would not have wanted to be a Russian in western (German-occupied) Russia in those days. |

| Sep-05-07 | | brankat: Second behind Botvinnik twice (only 1/2 point), wins against Capablanca, Euwe, Stahlberg, 3 times Moscow Champ, which in itself was no small feat! All this while still in his twenties. Must have been a very talented, and strong master. Pity, he died so young. Could have gone far. |

| Sep-05-07 | | Resignation Trap: Here's a photo with him from the 1933 USSR Championship: http://www.chesspro.ru/pict2/rc33-7... : Left to right: Ilia Abramovich Kan , Nikolai Nikolaevich Riumin , Mikhail M Yudovich Sr. and Nikolai Sorokin . |
|
| Sep-05-08 | | brankat: R.I.P. master Riumin. |
|
| Apr-20-09 | | DWINS: This guy was a fantastic attacker. Chernev says that "so bewildering were his conceptions that they once caused even the great Capablanca to lose his bearings and forfeit a game to him on time limit!" |
|
| Sep-05-09 | | laskereshevsky: <Mikhail Botvinnik wrote of him "... ...He, undoubtedly, was one of the strongest representatives of the younger generation of chess masters. He loved chess passionately and he was a very pleasant man...> Thisis to be frame!... Thought never read so gently words about another chess-player from BOT.... (TOVARISH?!.....)
....:) |

| Sep-05-09 | | whiteshark: I wonder if friends wrote him as NN on the score sheet? |
|
| Sep-20-09 | | whiteshark: Never touch a riumin' system! |
|
| Sep-25-11 | | wordfunph: "If you want to become a master, you must learn to lose, you must learn to
withstand a blow, so that in the game following a defeat you play as if nothing had happened!" - Nikolai Riumin (to the young Yuri Averbakh)

| Sep-05-13 | | brankat: R.I.P. master Riumin. |
|
| Sep-05-13 | | Abdel Irada: Why do I find it so easy to imagine a young Riumin knocking about St. Petersburg, having frequent conversations with Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov and moodily standing on bridges staring into the reeking waters of the Neva? ∞ |

 | | Penguincw: R.I.P. Nikolai Nikolaevich Riumin.
Not too bad of a player, as he beat 2 world champions: Capablanca and Euwe (obviously with white and when they weren't champion, but still impressive) and also women's champ Menchik with black. |
|
| Sep-05-14 | | ColeTrane: "get a ruimin" (room) or "cruisin' for a riumin" . "raging riumin" . "is there any riumin the back?" etc. ... just so this guy gets a GOTD |
|

 | | tpstar: Riumin vs Euwe, 1934 |
|
| Dec-12-22 | | Cibator: A belated addition to <ColeTrane>'s list: "Ryumin in the glyumin". (Mightn't mean much to non-Scots, or those below a certain age.) |
