Sep-04-05    WTHarvey: Here is a little collection of puzzles from Michael's games: http://www.wtharvey.com/roiz.html Oct-10-06    BIDMONFA: Michael Roiz ROIZ, Michael http://www.bidmonfa.com/roiz_michae... _ Nov-01-07    capablancakarpov: 4/4 at European Team Championships and counting... this guy is on fire! Will be in 2700 elo rating soon! Oct-18-08    zluria: Michael is Player of the Day, today... I played in the same tournament as this guy once. it was the championship of the Israeli army. he won the event easily. Michael is a very strong Grandmaster, and has represented Israel in several team events. He's a very promising young talent. While (obviously) strong in all phases of the game, Michael shines especially in the endgame, where he's anybody's match. Here is a shining example: M Roiz vs Karpov, 2007 Sep-08-10    plimko: Roiz is an excellent blitz-player too Oct-18-11    haydn20: <zluia> I looked at this game and Karpov simply blundered a piece in the middle game, resulting in a quick resignation--no endgame.
