Aug-25-05  waddayaplay: No games after 2001? Anyone knows what heppend to him , he seemed decent.

A funny quote:

<When I first saw this, I thought "How un-Chinese of Wang Zili!". >

http://www.correspondencechess.com/...

Aug-25-05  waddayaplay: Here he managed to draw Bologan. He played a lousy opening/middle game, but eventhough Bologan is usually good at winning small advantage endgames, Wang Zili managed to draw.
