  sakredkow: Is Esteban that same Canal that the Canal variation of the Sicilian was named for?

  FSR: <sakredkow> Yes. Canal was one of the earliest proponents of 3.Bb5+ against the Sicilian. Repertoire Explorer: Esteban Canal (white).

  Dionysius1: Great name for the winner in Venice! If only Manuel Vidal del Rio had been alive to take part as well.

  FSR: Very appropriate indeed. Along the same lines, Kenneth B Hills has probably won some tournaments in San Francisco.
