Jan-10-06    chesscrazy: Congrats on winning the Reggio Emilia International. Jan-10-06    Laskerfan82: I enjoy Landa's games; he's a very exciting attacking player not afraid to make intuitive sacrifices. Reminiscent of his compatriots Tal and Shirov. Jan-13-06    BIDMONFA: Konstantin Landa LANDA, Konstantin http://www.bidmonfa.com/landa_konst... _ May-22-07    whiteshark: С Днем Рождения Jun-30-07    Bridgeburner: Landa has jumped from outside the top hundred into number 41 on the July 2007 rating list, although he was 38th in January 2003. Jul-02-07    arunjangity: another 61-point grabber, like navara...hope he doesn't lose those points as fast as navara did! i think fide goofed though...they don't show his rating between 2003-07 unless you look at the graph. might have something to do with the adams goof too. Aug-25-07    technical draw: So little kibitzing for a super GM. We need a Bio. Mar-28-08    MarryCheckers: Konstantin was born in Konstantinople on Oktober Sekond, 19-Siksty-Siks. He is a sponsor of Krispy Kreme and Kal Kan Dog Food. He lives in Moskow with his wife Kiki and their children Koby, Kory, Kacy and Kody.
