Kibitzer's Corner
< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 2 OF 2 ·  Later Kibitzing >
Oct-18-04   molinov: I really was impressed when my countryman beat Nisipeanu and Soppe defeated a guy more than a 100 Elo points higher. Felgaer missed 23.Nb1 which would have given him an easy win. He played the ending very well under time pressure.
Apr-02-05   ConLaMismaMano: Today Felgaer had a great victory against Rustemov at Dos Hermanas.
Apr-04-05   azaris: Currently playing Evans Gambit against Harikrishna.
Apr-04-05   azaris: I see Harikrishna is about to succumb to a dubious refuted gambit that's never seen at GM level.
Apr-04-05   Ziggurat: Well, Kasparov did use the Evans Gambit to defeat Anand, amongst others (Kasparov vs Anand, 1995).
Apr-04-05   ConLaMismaMano: How about 22.Bf4 followed by Rad1? Or maybe doubling the rooks?

  iron maiden: Harikrishna is just about done for. Good to see the Evans in a top-level tournament.

  acirce: Felgaer's birthday today, http://www.fide.com/ratings/card.ph...
Apr-04-05   ConLaMismaMano: Felgaer came to Dos Hermanas full of surprises and most of all with no fear as he recently stated to an argentinean newspaper; he has no pressure and wants to learn from the best.
Apr-04-05   ConLaMismaMano: Happy birthday Ruben!
Apr-04-05   ConLaMismaMano: And it's 1-0, this must be one of his most precious victories next to the one against Nisipeanu at the recent olympiad.
Apr-04-05   falso contacto: well done. great victory against harikrishna.
Jul-09-05   falso contacto: first argentinian to go 2600+

  Robin01: The player of the day should at least have a bio.
Nov-28-05   alexandrovm: this guy won today a great game in the lines of the Ruy Lopez, berlin wall variation. Such a great game he played, that made him pass to the next step of the FIDE cup. Him, and Vescovi are the only players left of the south american continent, and only after round one.
Nov-28-05   ConLaMismaMano: You forgot Leitao, he's going to play the tiebreak against Jakovenko.
Nov-28-05   alexandrovm: <ConLaMismaMano: You forgot Leitao, he's going to play the tiebreak against Jakovenko.> thanks, that counts only 3, 2 brazilians and 1 argentinian.
Nov-28-05   ConLaMismaMano: Plus other 3 spanish speaking GMs from a total of 13; Bruzon (Kabanov), Vallejo Pons (Shilong Li) and Arencibia (Smirin) will all play the tiebreaks too.

  who: <falso contacto: first argentinian to go 2600+> What about Miguel Najdorf?
Nov-28-05   alexandrovm: the great game he played today is not yet in the database. He had some fair results this year and for some time I thougt he wasn't up to the task, he played a player who is almost as strong as he is (ELO points), let's see what happens the day after tomorrow.
Dec-11-05   falso contacto: who:<falso contacto: first argentinian to go 2600+> What about Miguel Najdorf?

najdorf was already a strong player when he came to argentina. fide rating system did not exist when najdorf was on the elite.

i was comparing felgaer to campora, spangenberg, zarnicki, ricardi.
