| | Nov-13-18 Charousek vs Maroczy, 1897 
| |
|
Nosnibor: <Telemus> I had this book in the 1960`s but no longer hold it.It contained very fine games of Maroczy but I am unable to give you the language. At the time I assumed it was Magyar.

| | Nov-11-18 Victor Ivanovich Soultanbeieff
| |
|
Nosnibor: In Fischer`s 60 Memorable Games he referred to his victory over Keres in game 9 as "Meat and Potatoes ".However I am sure he was not thinking of Soultanbeieff when this intro to the game was written.

| |
|
Nosnibor: <Chessical> Reference your article of July 30,2015 it would appear that the newspaper report got his age wrong when he competed in the 1897 Australation Congress. He was 73 years of age and not 63.I know what it feels like playing in tournaments at such an age being 75 ...

Nosnibor: The honourable Baron der Lasa should have been the player of the day.

|
| | Oct-14-18 J N Berger vs Charousek, 1892
| |

Nosnibor: <Jean Defuse> You are correct. In fact the only game that Charousek played J D Berger was in the Cologne Tournament in 1898 when he lost in 24 moves having made a blunder in a good position.He was then suffering from his terminal illness.

|
| | Aug-13-18 Vladimir Petrov
| |
|
Nosnibor: <hemy> Fantastic work that you are producing in respect of Petrov. Just wondering about the actual date of the Bogoljubov simul. Surely this should be 28th February 1925. The year 1924 contained the 29 days but not 1925.
