WANG YUE
(born Mar-12-1987) China

[what is this?]
Wang Yue was born on the 12th of March 1987 in Taiyuan, China. He confirmed his prowess at chess at an early age with his win in the 1998 World Under-12 Championship. He scored 10/12 points at the 37th Chess Olympiad (2006) in Turin, Italy, helping China to second place and winning the fourth-board gold medal in the process. Additional successes were soon to follow, including joint second place at 6th Aeroflot Festival (2007) and joint first at Cappelle la Grande (2007). By July of 2007, Wang had improved his FIDE rating to 2696, the highest ever for a Chinese player. That October he became the first player born in China to cross the 2700-mark.

In his supertournament debut at the Baku Grand Prix (2008), he shared first place with Magnus Carlsen and Vugar Gashimov, scoring +3 =10 -0.

Mar-22-09   shahjinan: <notyetagm: <xombie: It is refreshing to see a Wang Yue. I don't see what people are complaining about. He has a beautiful positional style and an endgame worthy of the great Capablanca himself. Are we going to see a Capablanca-Alekhine slugfest in the future?> And he own Carlsen. :-)>

Not really any more:)

  notyetagm: Anyone seen a pic of Wang Yue's gf?

I read that she was there with him at the Amber tournament.

May-08-09   DelPiero: I was browsing those nice videos of last years event of www.nhchess.com It would be great if Hou Yifan could play there
May-14-09   returnoftheking: Yue with black against Ivanchuk looks ok. Trade some rooks on the open file and bishop pair of white won't matter I think. I hope he does well at MTEL-seems like a down to earth, nice player and there is probably a lot of unexploited talent waiting for a role model in China..
May-14-09   dumbgai: Better than okay apparently. Hilarious position at the end.
May-14-09   DeepFriedLiver: Yes, Wang Yue managed a very clever endgame, imprisoning Ivanchuk's King. It's been said several times already, but Yue has impressive endgame technique.

On a side note, has anyone noticed that Yue generally looks miserable all the time? I wonder what's on his mind...

May-16-09   zzzzzzzzzzzz: y gid e in anst Ivanchuck
May-18-09   mindanalyzer: Wang Yue!! Why does he remind me of a panda?
May-19-09   mindanalyzer: Why in heck this guy play such a boring chess?
May-19-09   Phoenix: <mindanalyzer: Why in heck this guy play such a boring chess?>

Maybe you should ask him.

May-20-09   wolfmaster: Is his name pronounced YOO-way, yoo-WAY, yuh-WAY, YOO, or other?
May-20-09   myschkin: @ <wolf> http://v.ku6.com/show/TS5PxcySzoS5e... (0:09-0:10) :)
May-23-09   dumbgai: <mindanalyzer: Why in heck this guy play such a boring chess?>

Learn some English first before criticizing your superiors.

May-23-09   I Like Fish: Why in heck...
this guy play...
such a boring chess...
May-23-09   Sicilian Dragon: Maybe...
he doesn't...
eat enough...
fish...
May-24-09   I Like Fish: maybe...
digestive problems...
May-24-09   Sicilian Dragon: indeed...

Jul-03-09   Tripler: It's pretty demanding, I would guess, playing "interesting" chess all the time at the top levels. Someone asked Petrosian why he didn't play more "interesting" chess - he said he could do that, but he'd lose more games. Same with Karpov. I like Wang Yue's style very much, his game against Radjabov in the KID Samisch Gambit is superb.
Jul-10-09   Zitaxis: upcoming grand slam details

Sep-30-09   Agent Bouncy: Hey, his family name is WANG, not Yue. Why is he listed under Yue in the player directory? That's like listing Fischer under B for Bobby.
