May-13-07   Raskolnikov: < notyetagm: Anyone know what Jakovenko's next event is? Thanks> In his interview for http://sportcom.ru/news/interview/4... (in Russian) he said that he is going to play a round-robin tournament in Ukraine ( dont know what ) and in August he will participate in China vs Russia match.

Wow, Aerosvit is going to be one strong tournament again like last year.

  Plato: There is a new interview with Jakovenko which was published by "Sportcom." I don't speak Russian so I had to try to get the gist of it by using a free online translation site.

The interview can be found at: http://sportcom.ru/news/interview/4...

  notyetagm: So, what is Jakovenko's effective rating at this moment, after the 2007 Russian Team Championship?

Looks like Jakovenko will get one more chance to increase his rating before the July 1 FIDE rating list if the Aerosvit tournament is included.

  ganstaman: I've been told (http://www.fide.com/ratings/top.phtml) that he's ranked 10th in the world, and yet I don't think I ever knew of him 2 days ago.

  acirce: Not Anand, Kramnik or any other established top player, but the new star Jakovenko is the winner of the third ACP Tour. Well done!

http://www.chess-players.org/eng/to...

The 13 highest placed qualify to the next ACP World Rapid Cup: Jakovenko, Anand, Kramnik, Morozevich, Ivanchuk, Lékó, Aronian, Radjabov, Najer, Svidler, Karjakin, Shabalov and Eljanov.

Topalov, of course, is not on the list since he (together with Danailov and Ponomariov) left the ACP over politics a few years ago.

Aug-20-07   Raskolnikov: If I am not mistaken, Russia-China Summit games begin in 30 minutes. Todays pairings for men:

Ni, Hua -- Tomashevsky, Evgeny
Jakovenko, Dmitry -- Wang, Yue
Zhang, Pengxiang -- Alexeev, Evgeny
Timofeev, Artyom -- Bu, Xiangzhi
Wang, Hao -- Inarkiev, Ernesto.

Pairings for women:
Kovalevskaya, Ekaterina -- Huang, Qian
Zhao, Xue -- Kosintseva, Tatiana
Korbut, Ekaterina -- Shen, Yang
Wang, Yu -- Kosintseva, Nadezhda
Tairova, Elena -- Ruan, Lufei.

I think, it will be great, if cg.com will make the forum for this event.

Aug-20-07   Raskolnikov: I was mistaken, the games already began.
Aug-20-07   Mameluk: http://russiachess.org/online/ is a live transmission of maybe most intersting event of whole August.
Aug-21-07   Mameluk: Anybody is watching the Alekseev-Wang Yue ultimate fight?
Aug-21-07   Raskolnikov: Yeah, Alexeev won, but the other Russians...

  Cactus: Is he a GM? He is 2735!

  chessamateur: <Cactus> Yes he is a GM. Chessgames.com just needs to update their bio.
Dec-05-07   jamesmaskell: Jakovenko is having a great year or so. Hes come out quite suddenly. I must admit, I didnt really notice him until he shared first in Russia with Alekseev.
Dec-06-07   Troller: <jamesmaskell> I believe he completed (well, maybe only partly) his education before deciding to play full-time chess. He is apparently a very promising natural scientist.

After some shock-treatment in the best league this year (Aerosvit and Tal Memorial), he seems to be acclimatizing himself among the best. His style is reminiscent of a young Karpov, slowly capitalising on tiny weaknesses and, if necessary, taking it into the endgame where he has very few (if any) superiors.

It will be interesting to follow him the next couple of years to see if he can consistently take on the very best in the world or he will stabilise around 8-20 in the rankings.

Dec-06-07   jamesmaskell: <a very promising natural scientist> Hopefully not too promising a natural scientist...dont want him pulling a Kamsky.
Dec-06-07   slomarko: why? was Kamsky a "promising scientist"?

  Cactus: <slomarko> After losing the FIDE world championships, Kamsky quit chess for a legal degree (though he's back and better!)
