 | | chessgames.com: Please note: it is supremely disrespectful to discuss an ongoing chess game in a public area where the participants may be exposed to the analysis. Even if the analysis is shallow or almost whimsical, it is not allowed. Once the game is over, you can discuss anything you like. Thank you. |

 |

 | | WinKing: Our game was an interesting discussion of the Catalan versus a Semi-Slav. Is the jury still out or do you believe white controls his own destiny in this hybrid opening. I will be curious to hear your thoughts on this game. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to engage us here at chessgames. |

 | | karnak64: GM Umansky, thank you for playing this group of amateurs.
Several on the team are experienced and skilled players, but a lot of us, like me, are not. So it means a great deal to us to have the chance to meet up with the likes of you. My game is better now because of this experience, and you have my thanks. I hope you give us another chance to win. |

 | | dakgootje: It seems that mister Umanksy has passed away last friday due to a Cardiovascular disease. Perhaps someone can confirm or deny it but the original German source looks rather trustworthy: http://www.schachverbandschwaben.de... If this is confirmed however, it would be very sad and unexpected news indeed. |

His chess game against this World Team might have been the last game he played. |

And he taught us to play the Catalan, too.
RIP, GMU. |

| Dec-19-10 | | theagenbiteofinwit: I'll never forget our game. You were a true pioneer, who regularly employed the Catalan before the world caught on. You were a champion in every sense of the word. Thank you. |
