Lasker? and he said he was rexamining chess does anyone know what he meant?      Apr-04-12 Andrew Soltis    pazzed paun: i had a chance to skim what it takes to be a chess master sort of a book 2 to what to study in chess---be curious to find out if any former class A players use it to get a big jump in playing strength      Mar-18-12 Yasser Seirawan    pazzed paun: no criticism of Yasser but if he has not played in a tournament in 8 years joins the U.S. championship at the last minute, finishes with a less than 50% score, and is STILL ranked in the top ten of U.S. players is it just impossible to be a 2650+ player in the USA?      Nov-14-11 Kibitzer's Café    pazzed paun: did anybody see the Sunday Ny times article with that dylan macloed guy? it has a photo and games score-they interview GM Maurice Ashley --but I don't think DYLAN has enough skill as a writer to bring across the point of the article. 3 13y.o. African Americans living in NYC now ...      Oct-14-11 LIFE Master AJ chessforum    pazzed paun: HI AJ! ...sometime back you said you switched from your main white weapon being the Italian game to the ruy lopez---could you say a bit more about it---how long did it take to feel comfortable playing the Ruy? did you have a steep learning curve-i.e. some blowouts early on-- ...      Oct-14-11 Eric Schiller    pazzed paun: Hi Eric! by now you have seen the 2vols W"ojo's Weapons"---it reminds me of your books-the Catalan and Fianchetto against the west indians a handy way to put together a compact repitore!      Sep-28-11 Bent Larsen    pazzed paun: there is an interesting account of Larsen in that bio-book about Benko Larsen spent several months in the U.S. in the early 60's hanging out with Benko and Larry Evans. In the my great predecssor's series Kasparov says Fischer knew more about Larsen's own games than Larsen did.      Aug-30-11 John William Donaldson   pazzed paun: does anyone know if J.D. ever won the Tacoma chess club championship? one the website they have gaps in the history and do not even mention donaldson playing there!      Jan-28-10 whiskeyrebel chessforum    pazzed paun: HI Phil! you play the bogo-nimzo complex as black. Do you think Alburt's book "opeinings explained" is a useful way to learn this opening? Did the Silman endgame book help you? thanks      Feb-09-09 Fred Reinfeld    pazzed paun: <DOCTOR D> not kidding.... name one published chess author living in U.S. that read German---Steinitz?
