Kibitzer's Corner
Oct-25-06  syracrophy: Some information about this player that I obtained from http://fide.com/ratings/card.phtml?...:

1607553 Arwanitakis, Michael M
<Federation: Austria> <FIDE title: None> <Current rating: 2265> <Birthday Year: 1976>

Oct-25-06  mazetas: Some more information: His surname looks Greek and not Austrian. In Greek should be Arvanitakis, which is a very common name. The "v" insteed of "w" is meaningless cause the pronounce of the name still the same.
Dec-04-22  Margetic D: <mazetas> His father is a Greek. I know him personally, we played since 1992 for the same chessclubin Graz (Styria/Austria) His name is indeed with a v instead of w: Michael Arvanitakis. Very nice person, very talanted chess player, had in his younger days an attacking play style. Later he swithed his opening repertoire. I think the hard work in medical field prevented that he become even stronger player. If it should be about ELO, his best performance was 2297 if i am not wrong. Personally, i could unfortunately after the war in my country never reach my old level and play-quality.As i was 15, i achieved my best perfromances in tournament chess (2155, July 1991), and in Autria (where my level droped) Arvanitakis and Spiendelboeck was my first sparring chess mates with whom i tried to reach pertially my former level. I will be forever in charge,because this peole saved me mentally. Arvanitakis is now working as plastic surgeon, he retired from chess, to my knowledge 2007.
Dec-04-22  stone free or die: <<Margetic D> His name is indeed with a v instead of w: Michael Arvanitakis. >

Do you know if he's aware that FIDE spells it with a "w" on his FIDE card?
