| | May-14-09 M-Tel Masters (2009) 
| |
|
volvak: He came joint last in Corus, he came joint first in Linares & came way down the table in Amber. This kind of fluctuation is perfectly normal for him.

volvak: 3.Bb5+ is such a chicken move. I love it when the Moscow Variation gets killed. Bravo Shirov.

|
volvak: <Theo would regularly battle all day for stakes with a Chinese fellow we called "Doctor Wu" (I'm not sure if he was really a Doctor, or that was just his nickname)> oh yeah i remember "the doc". I wonder if Nakamura will end up like one of those bums.

|
volvak: <And, in point of fact, he seems to be the most talked about player on this site. . . .> ...and all for the right reasons, amen.
