| Marvol: <Troller: As for the ongoing tournament, it will be interesting to see if she can - once again - take down Topalov in one or two games.> You asked for it!
Topalov vs Judit Polgar, 2007
Nice premonition you had there.
To be included in the upcoming Everyman Chess's 'Winning with the Petroff'. |

| nikolajewitsch: She has done very well with Black so far, two wins vs. 1 loss with white. If she can continue this (mini) streak and beat Pono tomorrow with black, I think she has a fair chance of winning the tournament. |

| Karpova: Interview with her:
http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail...
<How would you define your game style?> I am known to be a very aggressive player, an attacker. It’s more difficult to be one when playing black, but I try to develop that aspect with them too. <Do you identify yourself with any particular chess piece?> The knight is my favourite.
<Are glances in chess really as important as they say?> To me, chess is a psycological game and glances are a part of this personal game. But I don’t think they have the importance everybody keeps trying to give them. <You have fullfilled many of your goals from getting into the world’s top ten to defeating players like Kasparov. What are your aims now?> From a personal point of view, my goal is to raise my children so that they can be happy, successful and take care of themselves in the future. To support them all the way. Whatever they do, their mother will always be there for them. From a professional point of view, now that I have a family I choose the tournaments I play in, why and against who a lot more. I want to play chess while I’m still fascinated by it. The moment I stop having fun, I will quit this. |

| ahmadov: I always believed that there is a link between chess and life... Judit helped me to understand better: <Yes, I think that playing chess can be a good way of training your mind to face everyday life. Playing chess has many aspects that can be useful in everyday situations like planning, concentration and combinations. You learn to win but also to lose and to be creative.> |

| HeMateMe: <( nikolajewitsch: As much as I think we should focus on female players' play instead of their looks - this is indeed a charming pic of her:

Ok, back to topic.>
Great photo--you don't always catch her with a nice smile! |

| Octavia: I've just been studying k&p endgames & enjoyed her zugzwang win over Adams. |
 |

| EdwardChisam: Polgar has a sharp style: a lot of wins, and also a relatively high number of losses. But when she's on a roll, look out. |

| Riverbeast: I'm in love with you Judit - you lovely red headed chess queen! |

| Funicular: Some years ago in a tournament, i was 9, and i played a girl for the final round. My father had taught me well "Don't feel sorry just cuz she's a woman" She kept on staring at me like twice or three times per second when i was about to move. It freaked me out a little. But it paid off...she was black, and her queen was defending g7. She took the queen out to check me once or twice. I hid my king and next thing she know she couldn't get back to h6 (her G pawn was in the 6th rank) So my bishop was in c2..and i went like Qg7#
hehe. That's everything i can say about women in chess :P |

| sallom89: <Annie K.: <RookFile> what bugs me is that Judit (not your average "woman") should have better things to do with her time than to spend it sitting in front of a mirror and smearing stuff on her face so adolescents can drool over her looks. She doesn't need that, but going by her recent OTB results, such as in the Candidates Matches, she does need more work on her chess.> i found it nice, because there are beautiful chess players which is what shes trying to prove hah ! :P |

| Augalv: what makes Judit so attractive is being so good at the most difficult game in the world. |
 |
| Mar-10-08 |
| Udit Narayan: <Augalv> Have you played every single game in the world that you make such a statement? |
 |
| Mar-10-08 |
| Augalv: your question is not clear |
 |
| Mar-10-08 |
| Udit Narayan: How can you be sure that chess is the most difficult game in the world? |
 |
| Mar-10-08 |
| Augalv: well, maybe I exaggerated. |

| offramp: I saw this on the internet. It was about a comment that Joel Channing made: "It was actually Carol Channing.
She said:
"Hey! Didya hear about that Polgar woman? The one in the sheitl?
[Laughter]
I wouldn't say she likes to have oompah oompah but she has three hundred thousand kids! Didya like that one? [Laughter]
No, not you. The one in the sheitl.
[Laughter]
Is it sheitl or shtetl?
[Laughter]
For you - shtetl.
[Laughter]
Polgar has a friend called Sam Sloan. He's known as the bacon-crunching sheitl-bashing bishop-banging space-suit-farting lap-top-seeking Morden-cordon-Auden-Warden and here's a song about the USCF.
[Laughter] [Carol sings]
Polgar polgar polgar, koonoo mato mio. Tingo tingo tingo, Kala kala
kala ...
[A demon appears on the stage]
Carol: Gaaaaaaah!!
Audience: Gaaaaaah!!!"
People will post anything on the internet. Does Sam Sloan really like WH Auden? |
