Jul-26-09 G Welling vs J Cobben, 1977
| |
|
Gejewe: <sneaky pete> This game was played before Freidl's book was published. At the time, both Jan Maarten Cobben and I were deeply interested in the Blackmar-Diemer gambit and we played multiple training games. With a lot of games, a high percentage of BDG and other gambits, and ...

Gejewe: The game vs. Reti was not lost by Arthur Dunkelblum but by a Viennese player.
Mr. Dunkelblum was one of the friendliest opponents I ever played. In the late 1970ties - in spite of his age - he was still a regular in the open Dutch blitzchampionship in Zevenbergen. He was very ...

Gejewe: <vonKrolock> Thanks for pointing this out. Besides the tournament where the two of you played together, I found Vasconcellos in the tables of sF's in 1978,1981,1982,1983,1986 and 1988 (1987 was incomplete). Two games played from the black side of a Skandinavian and a Dutch ...

Gejewe: <AugustKamppur>
Guido den Broeder is a Dutchman, and I guess he is in his early 50ties now, but gave up competitive chess long ago. About 30 years ago he was doing quite well in the Dutch open, beating IM Hans Böhm and other strong players( also beating me, with 1.f4.. but I

Gejewe: <Pit Snipe>
Nice to hear from Hugh's son. I cherish the friendship with Hugh, it started around 1978 and lasted until his passing away ( with a short interruption around the turn of the millenium when we had a quarrel on the matter if one of his "sworn enemies" in the chess ...

Gejewe: <satch boogie>
Yes, Hugh Myers' books provide quite a few of his games."Exploring the chess opening", in my opinion his magnum opus, is out of print and hard to get. In 2002 Hugh published his autobiography, which had lots of games, and recent ones as well. Here are some ...

| |
|
Gejewe: I do not think Martin Martens, a former clubmate of mine at the Eindhoven chessclub , was born when this game was played... Black is the legendary Swedish player Rolf Martens, who died earlier this year at the age of 66. A former Swedish champion, he once drew a match with up and ...

| | Aug-15-08 G Welling vs Pardoen, 1981
| |
|
Gejewe: <Whiteshark> I agree, 6..Bf5 is what ultimately made me give up this line, because 7.Ne5 e6 8.0-0 and now the complications after 8..Bxc2 9.Nxf7!? are funny (but maybe not correct in this age of computeranalysis) but 8..Bg6! is rocksolid and I was not able to come up with a ...

| | Aug-15-08 G Welling vs Kappler, 1983
| |
|
Gejewe: <whiteshark> It is a long time ago but I think we came to the same conclusion, that 23..Nxd5 looks dangerous but in fact leads to a draw.
And it was the zwischenzug, just as you indicate, that scared me away from Nd5+.. Very cheeky defence from Mr.Kappler and I noticed it just ...

| |
|
Gejewe: <MarkThornton>
I can assure you it was no deep preparation from GJ's side. After the game the consensus was that white's exchange sacrifice 14.Bxe4 is quite strong, but that white messed up in the later stages and got into problems . Near the end, white's blunder and black's ...
