| percyblakeney: Gustafsson may be the least kibitzed about player ever to participate in Dortmund. His player page doesn't have too many posts and less than ten of his games have comments, but that will soon change. Gustafsson is the same age as Leko and turns 30 next year. He will lose a few points on the next rating list after his latest tournament and will be somewhere around number 150 on the world ranking. Especially Kramnik, Leko, Mamedyarov and Ivanchuk will be a tough test for him in Dortmund. |

However, I also hope that next Dortmund will be a turning point in his chess career... Good luck to him! |

| DukeAlba: If you notice in the database, Gustafsson hasn't lost a match as white since 2006... at least according to CG. He seems pretty consistent as white. |

| Refused: <Yeah, I think it was a bit interesting to find his name in the list of Dortmund participants... However, I also hope that next Dortmund will be a turning point in his chess career... Good luck to him!> I doubt it, since "Gusti" is usually spending more time on playing poker these days. He is one of those numerous Chess players that decided to become a poker pro. Afaik he quit University some years ago (he used to study law), eventhough he might still be immatriculated (which I doubt), he had not attend a course or a lecture there in ages. |

| Kasputin: I usually cheer for the underdog, and even if he doesn't win Dortmund, it is refreshing to see a different name on the leader board. Obviously a great player but not in the stratisphere of 2750+. I am glad that chess can still hold surprises, that a player can get on a roll and beat others despite a signficant difference in ratings. I don't want to take anything away from the top rated players. They deserve the respect and attention garnered by their excellent play. Still it is nice to see that chess isn't always predictable. |

| myschkin: "... Auch nach 1. d4 d5 können sehr scharfe Varianten entstehen, gerade in Slawisch und Halbslawisch, das hat man ja in den Partien gegen Ivanchuk und Naiditsch gesehen. Aber eins ist natürlich richtig: Ich bin von Natur aus kein „Totschläger“, der aus der Eröffnung heraus zu gewinnen versucht. Normalerweise stelle ich mich erst mal solide hin und versuche dann in Spielstile überzulenken, die ich gerne mag..."
