| hellopolgar: <Ladolcevita> you are chinese, you should know. no need to play the "wow, really?" innocent card. <...
In 2006, a senior CBA official admitted that past youth squads had included players above the permitted age,[58] and Yi's longtime American teammate in China, Jason Dixon, said to Chad Ford that Yi was "21 or 22...It's pretty common over [in China] to change ages".[59] In 2007, a Chinese government registration site made public by hackers showed Yi's date of birth as being in 1984,[60] and in December 2008, a Chinese reporter discovered school registration forms that listed Yi as being born in 1984.[61]> quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yi_Jia... |

| hellopolgar: either way, age means nothing, when kasparov was number 1, no one cared about how old he was. how early one blooms is unimportant, it's how long one keeps blooming and how high one can reach that actually matters. |

| Ladolcevita: <hellopolgar>
I'm sorry,but this point really surprises me,its only the second time,the first time I saw it was yesterday,on a Chinese Chess Tournament Live Comment Page...an IP said Yifan's age was faked,and he/she didnt say any proof though...but sounded like a cynic....And yeah,I heard about those news before,but its something like,you know, Basketball,Gymnastics,which never reminded me of CHESS!!So I'm obviously surprised,and you shouldnt doubt this,ok? |

| Ladolcevita: <hellopolgar>
I'm sorry,but the young geniuses doesnt care how you look upon them.And they never mention their ages,it is you that think too much. |
 |
| May-28-09 |
| Ladolcevita: <BTW>
I'm not playing the so-called innocent card.I am me myself,and there are so many chinese people,Should I be ashamed or concerned or playing some funny cards for anybody of them?Certainly,its impossible! |
 |
| May-28-09 |
| Ladolcevita: <Ok,I'm getting foolish again,to speak on==>
HMMM...I have to inform you that,China and Chinese people nowadays,are living freely,only Korean people like to win the fake pride.At least,I am lazy to impress or flatter others,I have more important thing to be busy with.Hehe. |

| SugarDom: Yes, Yifan's age was faked...She's actually only 12, that makes her the world's youngest GM beating even Karjakin... :) |

| wordfunph: Interesting match in the last round:
Yu Yangyi (2433) - GM Mark Paragua (2529)
These two players are my favorites...i hope both players will win huh! |
 |

 |
| wordfunph: Yu-Paragua ended on the 72nd move with only two Kings left on the board.... indeed a bloody game of chess! |
 |
| May-31-09 |
| Ladolcevita: <Congrats>
YuYangyi has got all the GM norms,so that when his rating rise over 2500,he would automatically become a Grandmaster! |
 |

| RuyLupit: Yu Yangyi is definitely GM material. Congratulations to this young chess whiz! |
 |
| May-31-09 |
| Ecplecticos: His play is definitely a true Grandmaster calibre so he can not be denied to be one.
From a mere unknown and untitled to a full pledged GM, skipping the customary title of an IM.
Another Chinese GM did the same feat in one of the recent Dubai Open
edition, untitled Wang Hao(now carrying an ELO of 2696 and China's current number 4) getting elevated to GM for winning that Tournament, ahead of the many grandmasters in participation. |

| notyetagm: Wow, Yangyi Yu is <4/4> to start the 2009 World Junior Championship, going <3/3> with Black(!). With his 2509 rating, he just won Black games over Iturrizaga (2605) and Li Chao (2617) in Rounds 3 and 4, respectively. Round 5 he has White against Zhigalko (2646).
http://www.chess-results.com/tnr266... Go China! |
 |
| Oct-25-09 |
| Ken Ji jun: This Chinese lad Yu Yangyi, watch out and keep an eye on this one! The 2509 is an understatement, there is an under lying potent behind that measly number!
Iturrizaga's 2609 don't serve justice to the other guy's 2509. |

| notyetagm: Yu Yangyi lost his White game in round 5 against Zhigalko, has White against Rodshtein in round 6. http://www.chess-results.com/tnr266... |
