| Ribeiro: <chessgames.com> You are right, I think his name is "Jaime", and not "Jayme". |

| vonKrolock: The brazilian Championship from 1979, in Fortaleza, was a FIDE Zonal: the champion would have a place in the Rio de Janeiro Interzonal - Jaime was the absolute favorite to win the title and won - and arrived to the Interzonal as only player without even the IM title (he was young, and already witn considerable strenght, but in those days there was not the FM title and even to be a IM the waiting time was longer...) Well, he had already a solid international experience - mainly in World Junior, Student and South- or Pan-American events - but nothing near to a Candidate in-the-paper profile... Well, the Tournament started, with great TV and media coverage: The lights of the brazilian media were over Mecking, two times Interzonal winner... After two rounds, Mecking had to leave the Tournament due to a disease (miastenia gravis): Then all the brazilian's hopes were directed toward Sunyé : And he not disapointed! He started to win Game after Game, demolishing experienced GMs like Portisch, Smejkal or Vaganian with the black pieces, etc - and became a national hero: the main eight-night o'clock news from Globo TV presented daily sensational reportages, the greatest daily newspaper showed the moves of the played or adjourned Games in full-page matters... <Jaime> Legal que Você está sendo homenageado hoje aqui como "player of the day": Este lugar é um verdadeiro acervo do melhor que já foi produzido em todos os tempos, e vem sendo cada vez mais prestigiado por personalidades enxadrísticas de peso - de uma olhada, só como amostra, nas páginas do Keene e da Zsuzsa Polgar (aqui eles são <ray> e <Susan>) - Eu já comentava partidas aqui antes de começar esta era, e esta é uma das razões para estar aqui com um pseudônimo - me concentro na busca da verdade contida nas sequências de lances produzidas nestes mais de cinco séculos de Xadrez... (também assim me preservo de tentar explicar por que não cheguei a campeão mundial...) Mas a ficção se resume a alguns dados do meu perfil - quando modificá-los, tudo se encaixará como modestas contribuições do mesmo <zk> de sempre
Abraços
PS: Espero que da próxima vez que eu passe de carro aí pela Rua Duque de Caxias eu encontre lugar para estacionar Até mais |

| Marco65: <WTHarvey> The first puzzle on your page must be wrong. "Nf6 if Kh8 Qg6" what is that? The king is already in h8, and I don't see how Nf6 wins |

| Knight13: Player of the day! Cool.
And I would like to thank <WTHarvey> for providing some good puzzles for this player. |
 |
| Jul-22-05 |
| WTHarvey: <Marco65> Thanks for the heads up. King's on g8 & Nf6+ is the key. I gave you credit on the page. :-)
<Knight13> Thx! |

| Marco65: <WTHarvey> No need to credit me, but thanks anyway. Now I see how the solution works, beautiful! |

| Shostakovich: I have a question about Sunye Neto's qualification to the 1979 interzonal. He did not qualify through the regular Tramandai zonal. Trois, Bronstein & van Riemsdyk did. Did Neto play in the zonal? Was another interzonal spot added later due to Brazil being the host country? Was this the 1979 championship as vonKrolock mentions above? |
 |
| Jul-22-06 |
| arbivara: I'm not 100% sure abaout that, but I supose Sunye's place was added due to Brazil being the host country. That wouldn't, howerver, make the 1979 Brazilian Championship a Zonal, as vonKrolock stated. BTW, Sunye's victory in 1989 Zonal was shared with Van Riemsdijk |
 |

 |
| vonKrolock: While going to Fortaleza in 1979, players were aware that they would play a Swiss with a sure spot in the forecoming Interzonal later that Year in 1979, so the Brazilian Championship that Year was a "de fato" Zonal, ok?
A propósito <arbivara>: parece que as súmulas (e portanto qualquer registro) deste Campeonato de 1979 se encontram perdidas (temporariamente extraviadas, espero) como se pode comprovar no site do Adaucto brasilbase.com |
 |
| Jul-23-06 |
| arbivara: I forgot to mention that Sunye's bio is incomplete: he also won Brazilian Championship in 1983 (together with Marcos Paolozzi Servulo da Cunha). He's the record holder together with Souza Mendes, seven titles each. <vonKrolock> não só as súmulas, mas sequer o quadro sinóptico desse torneio é conhecido. Uma grande pena e também um vergonha para a História do Xadrez Brasileiro |
 |
| Jul-23-06 |
| arbivara: Anycase, I still wouldn't call that tournament a Zonal, but a Interzonal qualifier, since obviously no other Zone countries were present. |
