| Benzol: <Kangaroo> I had conflicting data when doing the bio but his FIDE card says it's Vereslav. See http://www.fide.com/ratings/card.ph... |

| OneBadDog: Eingorn's "Decision Making at the Chessboard" looks like a good book. |

| Kangaroo: <Benzol> I recall from the soviet sources that his first name was Vyacheslav (or Viacheslav) - who knows how the names have changed since the collapse of the evil empire! If Leningrad has returned its original name, perhaps so did Eingorn. |

| sitzkrieg: Unfortunately he didnt get to play in many foreign tournaments, I think he is underrated. |

| MoonlitKnight: In "The Soviet Championships" by Cafferty/Taimanov, his first name is Vyacheslav. He was a very strong player in the late eightes, which is easily demonstrated by his 5th place in one of the strongest USSR championships ever, the 55th, in 1988: 1. Kasparov 11½
2. Karpov 11½
3. Yusupov 10
4. Salov 10
5. Eingorn 9½
6. Ivanchuk 9½
There are three games by him in the book
Eingorn vs Balashov, 1985
of course the incredible endgame in
Eingorn vs Kupreichik, 1987
and he was victim to a brilliancy by old Smyslov
Smyslov vs Eingorn, 1988
By the way, he looks like a mean gangster in his FIDE card, really cool! |

| stanleys: In the 56th championship(1989) he was also joint 3rd.His results in the Soviet championships are really impressive!
As I know he was a part of the Soviet team which won the European championship in Haifa/1989.
Some days ago the Ukrainian women won gold at the Olympiad of Turin;Eingorn was their coach |

| wordfunph: VISA Summit Reykjavik 1990 Tournament: Reserve player may substitute for the resting player, so a reserve could suddenly pop up on any 10 boards unlike in Olympiad rulings. The USSR's number 1 reserve was EINGORN; in the first 4 rounds he had been used 3 times, drawing with H. Olafsson on board 2, beating Short on board 1, and beating J. Benjamin on board 7. He immediately earned the nickname "super-sub"! |
