Oct-18-05    jperr75108: lots of games, no kibitzing? he was in this years Senior World Championship. Oct-19-05    IMlday: In the 1960's Vasiukov was a very interesting and instructive player. For speed chess his 1.e4 repertoire was open and useful. Nov-15-05    Robin01: <he was in this years Senior World Championship> He played good. Looks like he did not lose a game. Nov-15-05    EmperorAtahualpa: Sorry for nagging, <Robin01>, but he played "well". Nov-15-05    Robin01: <EmperorAtahualpa> Yes, you are correct. Nov-15-05    Phaethon: how did he do in the seniors did he come in the top 10? Nov-15-05    IMlday: An early tournament pamphlet I acquired (second hand) was the Lasker Memorial, East Berlin, 1962. Vasiukov and Stein completely dominated. None of V's games from there seem to have made the CG database. Nov-15-05    WMD: Thanks in advance for submitting them. Nov-15-05    IMlday: WMD, that's 43 years ago. You got any 90c cheap newsprint bulletins from 1962? I do recall that both Stein and Vasyukov were playing 1.e4 e6 2.d3, and that I, 13, was plenty impressed. Nov-15-05    keypusher: I am trying to put together a Vasiukov games collection -- recommendations welcome! Nov-16-05    Honza Cervenka: <None of V's games from there seem to have made the CG database.> I am just preparing a file of Vasiukov's missing games. They will be in the database soon. Nov-16-05    keypusher: Honza Cervenka: <None of V's games from there seem to have made the CG database.> I am just preparing a file of Vasiukov's missing games. They will be in the database soon.> Hurrah and thanks! Nov-17-05    IMlday: Excellent! :-) Chess artists are worth celebrating! Aug-31-06    sitzkrieg: < I do recall that both Stein and Vasyukov were playing 1.e4 e6 2.d3, and that I, 13, was plenty impressed> Stein's game not in database?
