Jul-29-07 | | whiteshark: I never heared before about hin.
But there is a book about him:
<MASTERPIECES OF ATTACK * THE BRILLIANT GAMES OF MEXICO’S GM MARCEL SISNIEGA CAMPBELL * <Gabriel Velasco> (1997)< These 659 games (most annotated) are an attempt to gather all his best efforts at the chessboard, many of which are really extraordinary works of art. Like his mentor, Carlos Torre, attacking is the style of this Mexican Grandmaster. <His games are often characterized by a very lively and enterprising style, the direct attack against the king being a salient feature in his style. As far as tactics and combinative play was concerned, Sisniega really excelled and produced many beautiful masterpieces and breathtaking short games.> -author. This grandmaster is your contemporary - you will learn the art of attack, sacrifices and combinations from him. Openings and games indexed as well as his opponents. A great book with lots of text to involve you. 299 pages, figurine algebraic. > > |

|
Sep-17-07 | | Manuel Garcia: ¡Seguro! Aunque supongo que las que le ganó a Yusupov y a Romanishin también las recuerda con gusto. Ya eran jugadores plenamente formados. |

Sep-27-09 | | syracrophy: Marcel Sisniega Campbell es de los escasos ajedrecistas mexicanos, sino el unico, que puede considerarse digno sucesor del legendario Carlos Torre. El excelente libro de la vida y partidas de Sisniega escrito por Gabriel Velasco (quien tambien escribio un libro sobre Torre) puede considerarse de lectura y estudio obligado para quien desee conocer a fondo a uno de los ajedrecistas mas reputados de nuestro pais. |

 | | ChessCoachClark: <Gottschalk> FYI, the game you generously listed as a PGN in April 2013 has been included in the book, MASTERPIECES OF ATTACK: The Brilliant Games of GM Marcel Sisniega Campbell, by Gabriel Velasco, on page 158, Game #298. However, that book has 1981 as the year. The only annotation provided is "Times: White 2:14; Black 2:29." What source did you use? (No problem; just curious.) |

Aug-07-16 | | zanzibar: <Cuernavaca, Morelos director, screenwriter and producer of Mexican cinema, Marcel Sisniega Campbels, grandmaster of chess in the state of Morelos, director and screenwriter, died Saturday at age 53, victim of a heart attack. The chess master and filmmaker was born on July 28, 1959 in Cuernavaca, Morelos; For nine occasions he held the title of National Chess Champion until he distinguished himself as International Master in 1977. After the death of the director, the reactions were present in the social network Twitter: Sisniega was the first Mexican to gain recognition as Great chess master, who gave the Mexican chess Federation in 1992. in the state of Morelos was directing chess by the Institute of Sport, he gave a big boost to national level and in international, as athletes who came . made known to the world, but then went to Mexican southeast, there much this sport got up and instead in Morelos a huge letdown that has not yet recovered had to > http://www.oem.com.mx/esto/notas/n2... |

Aug-10-17 | | syracrophy: Marcel Sisniega, considered the greatest Mexican player after Carlos Torre, took everyone by surprise by winning the National title at the age of 15. In 1976, aged 16, he earned his second title with an "almost" Fischer sweeping: 10½-½. The following brilliancy, highly praised by the American chess journalist Richard E. Fauber, belongs to this fest. Mexican Championship, 1976

<Premium Chessgames Member whiteshark: But there is a book about him:
<MASTERPIECES OF ATTACK * THE BRILLIANT GAMES OF MEXICO’S GM MARCEL SISNIEGA CAMPBELL * <Gabriel Velasco> (1997>Thank you both <syracrophy> and <whiteshark>. Yes I am Gabriel Velasco, the author of that book about the life and games of Marcel Sisniega. I would like to share those games with the kibitzers of chessgames.com but I am not sure how to contact the managers of this site, so they will allow me to put that collection of games (with key comments based on analysis by Stockfish) at their disposal. It would be a pleasure. That book was based on the original scoresheets of the games which Sisniega was kind to put at my disposal back in 1994 or 1995, when I told him that I was intent on writing a book with his chess games. Sisniega gave me a box that contained personal letters, memoraibilia, lots of sheets with original games handwritten by him, and so on. I carfeully revised all the scoresheets, discarded those that had mistakes or were short uninteresting draws, and from the remaining scoresheets I made a selection of 663 games which I thought were the best games played by Sisniega. I regret to have discarded many games that Sisniega lost and that were also very interesting. Now I don't have that material any more. It was lost after so many trips and movings.
I am retired now and have some free time which I would like to devote to transcribing again the 663 games of the book for this site (chess games dot com), but I am not sure if the managers of the site would allow me to do that. |

Apr-15-22 | | syracrophy: <Gaito> Maestro!! It's a big honor for me to hear from you! I carry with me your books on Marcel and Torre as chess gospels! It would be a big gift for the Latins and the chess comunity to see all the games of Marcel uploaded. I can recommend you to write chess@chessgames.com directly for sending that amount of material (it would be faster than using the tool of Uploading Games - as it takes you to upload the games one by one). I have personally tried to upload Marcel's brilliancy vs De Winter (1976), which I saw first on your book!, with no luck but I had luck uploading J F Villarreal Felix vs N Ristic, 1975, the masterpiece of another Mexican that you mentioned as well. I will keep track of your account, Maestro, is really nice to hear you're still active in the chess circulos. I hope you can receive a hug from this chess literary admirer! Bendiciones. |
