| Honza Cervenka: Chessgames.com, I would guess that "Vitaly Tseshkovsky" is more usual way of transcription of name of this player. |

| Caissanist: On the most recent FIDE list, Viktor Korchnoi is once again the highest rated player over the age of 60. The second highest, far ahead of everyone else, is Vitaly Tseshkovsky. This surprised me since I never remembered him as being among the world's elite, and in fact it turns out that his current rating of 2599 is his all time high. Of course ratings inflation contributed to this, but even so it's remarkable to see a player hit his peak this late in life. Tseshkovsky has improved steadily over the last few years, and it looks like he might be able to crack the world top 100 within a year or two. |

| iron maiden: His main weakness in major tournaments is his lack of stamina; other than that, he's not playing much worse than he did in the eighties. |

| Honza Cervenka: <Caissanist><I never remembered him as being among the world's elite> He definitely was one of world's elite in late 1970s and early 1980s. According to chessmetrics.com he was even in top ten for a short period. http://www.chessmetrics.com/CM2/Pla... |

| waddayaplay: He has an energetic and uncompromising style. Good opening knowledge; appears to have studied a lot and developed his own understanding of positions. A fighter, he tries to squeeze the most out of every position. Perhaps he could be compared to Korchnoi. Although Korchnoi of course doesn't play 1.e4 . Interesting game: Tseshkovsky vs Kasparov, 2004 |

| Peligroso Patzer: I ended up on this page this morning by way of Istvan Polgar, who was the player of the Black pieces in today’s puzzle (Szabo vs I Polgar, 1969 – position after 22. …  b8) and against whom Tseshkovsky played several games that are included in the database.It seems like quite a long time since I have heard anything about Vitaly Tseshkovsky, who I suppose is now well along in years. At one time he was quite a prominent GM, with two Soviet Championships on his résumé. His was always a very appealing style of play, so I am glad to have been serendipitously reminded of him. |

| chessgames.com: <It seems like quite a long time since I have heard anything about Vitaly Tseshkovsky> We now have added most of the games from the Agzamov Memorial which took place in Tashkent (Uzbekistan) in March of this year. Tseshkovsky tied for 1st place with 7/10, along with Amonatov and Filippov. Also we now have a recent photograph (taken from the aforementioned Agzamov Memorial), and we've dubbed him "Player of the Day". To top it all off, today is his birthday. Happy Birthday to GM Tseshkovsky; we hope that we have many more years of his chess artistry to enjoy. |
