JonDSouzaEva: Apparently he was a no-good umbrella-stealing scoundrel - see item 5209 on this page:

| | Jul-06-12 Vladislav Artemiev 
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: A monster 3157 blitz rating on playchess.com at the moment. Definitely one to watch!
|
|
| | May-22-12 Niebult
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: I think this player's name should be "Neibult". There was a M. Neibult who played in the 1954 Latvian Championship (as did Tal).

| | Jan-30-12 Kholmov vs A Belousov, 1974
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: 29. Qc5 was sneaky, the idea being 29. ... fxg4 30. Qf5+ and 31. Qc8+ picks up the black rook on h8.
|
|
| | Aug-28-11 G Kaganskiy vs Glek, 2002
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: Also 39. ... Bd4+ with 40. ... Bf2 wins easily.

| | Aug-01-11 Dus Chotimirsky vs Bronstein, 1954
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: Does anyone know which move it was that Chotimirsky retracted because it was a mistake?

|
| | Jul-19-11 Cochrane vs NN, 1820
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: I wonder if the last move is correct? 30.Rd8 seems much more natural and isn't at all difficult to find.

| | Mar-02-11 Jovanka Houska
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: She's England's #2 woman (behind Harriet Hunt), but not Britain's - Ketevan Arakhamia-Grant is probably better than both at the moment.

| | Feb-01-11 David A Sands
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: I don't think so. This David Sands plays in the London League. See http://www.essexchess.org.uk/Activi...

| | Jan-25-11 W Fairhurst vs Tylor, 1929
| |
|
JonDSouzaEva: JonDSouzaEva: The story of this outrageous swindle can be found here: http://www.chesshistory.com/winter/... "... Cold-blooded gamesman-planning is rare. But I have one pretty example. At my first British Championship, [at Ramsgate] in 1929, a friend of mine – who is a ...
