May-30-09    myschkin: . . . IM/SIM Darius Zagorskis (born 1969) from Lithuania. Fide card: http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?... ICCF card: http://www.iccf-webchess.com/Player... IM Darius Zagorskis is very famous in Lithuania for his chess erudition. He has played many games for a Lithuania national team as only IM among GMs. There are anecdotes about why he haven't become a GM being so good. He is very kind man. If an equal position is on the board and Darius is asked about a draw - he always agrees. He can often battle trusting his higher class, but he can't simply decline a draw. His chess theory knowledge is compared with famous Estonian player Lembit Oll.
