Jan-06-08    Eastfrisian: It seems, that he became in 1998 Chief (General Secretary) of the Norwegian Chess Federation (see here: http://tromsosjakklubb.com/intervju... In the current FIDE-Rankling-List you can't find a Bjarke Kristensen, but a Bjarke Sahl (Norway), who is alo born in 1956. Did Kristensen change his name? Feb-05-08    Troller: Yes, he has adopted the name of his wife I think. His name is Bjarke Sahl now, and he represents Norway. Aug-22-09    whiteshark: "Bjarke Kristensen is playing under the name Bjarke Barth Sahl but that nationality and name change is not yet reflected in the new FIDE rating list." (TWiC, 4th July 2005) http://www.chesscenter.com/twic/twi... Games from this 2005 transitional period Bjarke Kristensen
