| Nov-29-10 | | wordfunph: trivia on GM Lev Psakhis..
+ GM Lev Psakhis claimed that he reached world-class status by memorizing the games of Bobby Fischer. + GM Lev Psakhis does not call himself a chess fanatic though he says that he does not grow weary even after many hours of playing chess provided he has a comfortable chair and nice pop-music playing. Psakhis grew a thick beard which he says his lucky charm, which is
probably so, as ever since he has never come worse than third in a chess tournament! + At Aruba 1992, GM Lev Psakhis defeated all three Polgar sisters. happy 52nd birthday GM Psakhis! |
|
| Sep-20-11 | | wordfunph: just read from Chess U.K. mag that GM Psakhis <is dangerously ill and awaiting a liver transplant>, hope he feels better soon. |

|
| Nov-29-12 | | SimonWebbsTiger: Lev is, touch wood, in far better health and on the mend now, the last I heard. |

 | | Domdaniel: Lev - my contemporary - was close to death a year ago, after picking up lethal diseases in a Russian blood transfusion. Now, after a liver transplant in Israel - he's reportedly much better. Nobody has ever written with more insight on the French ... but hey, staying alive matters too. Keep on going, Lev. |
|

 | | perfidious: <Dom> Insight, leavened with a nice dash of humour. Psakhis' books are worthwhile reading.
We played two events together in July 1992, but never met. That would have been enjoyable indeed. |

 | | parisattack: <Domdaniel...Nobody has ever written with more insight on the French ... but hey, staying alive matters too.> Yes, awesome books on the French! Good to hear he is recovering. |
