 | | Phony Benoni: With all these comments on the Pelikan variation, I'm surprised that nobody has pointed out that he played the Bird quite a bit. |
|
Sep-13-07 | | bravado1: It always makes me wonder who a particular variation should be named after. The person who played it first, or rather the one who contributed to its development, provided the basis for theory, played it regularly etc. I.e. I haven't found a single game in this database where Winiawer plays the Winiawer. Similar situation here - even if it was Mieses who played it first, it was Pelikan and Sveshnikov who really deserve their names to be associated with early e5 in the Sicilian, I think. |

Apr-23-09 | | WhiteRook48: I don't understand that kind of chess notation |
|
Nov-30-09 | | Caissanist: In Spanish chess notation, C (Caballo) means knight, A (Alfil) is a bishop, D (Dama) queen, T (Torre) rook, and R (Rey) king. |
