Nov-05-05    Eastfrisian: He is born on 03.04.1978. It would be interesting to know, if Latvian Top-Players today are playing the Latvian Gambit, one of my favorite openings. Dec-23-11    whiteshark: More game: http://www.365chess.com/players/Mar... No games since 2002... did he quit for something more serious than chess?
