May-03-16    Clemens Scheitz: <Richard Taylor>, I'm sure you are not the only one. I know nothing about the preferences of New Zealand women, but let me suggest that you may be luckier with the ladies if you drop the cigar and trim your nose hairs.

All the rest are pale in comparison. May-04-16    cro777: After four rounds (out of nine) ShSM "Legacy Square Capital" from Moscow (Kosteniuk, Lagno, Kovalevskaya, Kashlinskaya, Savina) is leading with perfect score. Alexandra Kosteniuk has joined the team in the fourth round. She participated in the FIDE Women's Grand Prix in Batumi, finishing second in the final ranking. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CheNUZF... (The winners: Gunina, Kosteniuk and Batsiashvili). May-05-16    cro777: Kosteniuk joined her team from Moscow in round 4: http://ruchess.ru/upload/iblock/1d1...

(Right to left: Zhukova, Stetsko and Baraeva. Akeksandra Goryachkina played on board 1) May-07-16    Mr. V: Kosteniuk seems to have a sort of staying power at the top of women's chess lists, despite the passing of the years. May-08-16    Bratek: A very interesting article by Albert Silver on Chessbase http://en.chessbase.com/post/2016-r....<5/7/2016 – While the Premier League in the Russian Team Championship with its roster of big names is the largest draw for most fans, they would be seriously remiss to not look at all the other competitions involved. Notably the Women's Team Championship with several former world champions, the Higher League, the Senior's with legends from yesteryear still strutting their stuff.> May-08-16    Richard Taylor: <PhilFeeley: <Richard Taylor> Kosteniuk's not there. All the rest are pale in comparison.> But when I play where there are women players I play against them as warily as any man. At my level it makes not much difference there are plenty of women players can beat me.> yes Kosteniuk is a good player and so on...
