Aug-26-11 | | Strongest Force: Its good to see Sam is on cg.com. when I knew him he was connected to Wall Street in some way. His Zilber story reminds me of "KK": a very young African master who spent tons of money on me: as if I was his young date! |

Apr-18-14 | | Conrad93: < perfidious: <Caissanist: ...In terms of chess players who worked at Bankers Trust, the list includes Girome Bono, Max Dlugy, Anna Gulko, Sal Matera, David Norwood, in addition to myself.>
Seeing this list brought back some memories-I got to face all these players except Norwood, though I had the pleasure of meeting him when he played an invitational at Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1986. Nice guy. The last time I saw Weinstein, he mopped the floor with me in the first round of the 1983 New England Open in twenty-odd moves.> You like to talk about yourself quite often.
Are you a narcissist? |

 | | perfidious: <Conrad>, to see a narcissist, all you need do is look in the mirror. |
|
Apr-18-14 | | Conrad93: Would I see you? |
|
Apr-19-14 | | Conrad93: Well, in the eyes of an idiot they would seem like stupid conclusions. It helps to have an open mind. |
|
May-19-14 | | Caissanist: <Conrad93: Would I see you?> If you are who you want us to think you are then yes, you would probably see him, minus about 35 years. And 35 years from now you'll probably be hanging out on something similar to this site, telling stories about your glory and semi-glory days. Which is just fine, in fact it's one of the things I come here for. |

Jun-12-14 | | Howard: In the 1978 U.S. Championship, he drew all of his games but one. The one exception was his crush of Christiansen. Weinstein retired from chess shortly later. |
|
Sep-22-14 | | wordfunph: IM Weinstein never played the Alekhine Defense from his 105 games here in CG but interestingly he authored The Alekhine Defense published by Chess Digest in 1977.. http://www.amazon.com/ALEKHINE-DEFE... |

Sep-23-14 | | Strongest Force: Norman would show up with his wife from time to time to kibitz some big tournament games. When he was 16 he saw me working at Macy's and wanted to know how he could also get such a big summer job like me (he couldn't know he would make hundreds of millions at the time). Also, once, he also
once laughed out loud when he saw me wearing bellbottom pants which were a fad of the sixties. Another big laugh he got was when he saw junior champ Walter Browne playing both me and Vinnie Livermore (the Fishburn character in Searching For Bobby Fischer) in blitz at the same time for money!! Me and Vinnie both became master-level blitz players. |

Apr-06-15 | | JohnBoy: Weinstein won the following game in brilliant fashion. It should be in this database. http://www.365chess.com/search_resu... |

 | | perfidious: <JohnBoy> Remarkable game indeed; if you have not submitted it, I shall. |
|
Apr-06-15 | | JohnBoy: Thx, <perf>. I let my membership lapse (lassitude), and need to take care of it. |
|
Jan-06-19 | | Eastfrisian: Any photo of him? |
|
Jan-06-19
 | | MissScarlett: I wouldn't worry. It's <Raymond Weinstein> you need to be looking out for. |
|
Jan-06-19
 | | perfidious: Weinstein was featured on the cover of <Chess Life & Review>; believe it was in 1975. |
|
Jan-06-19 | | whiteshark: a.m. cover: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/BgEA... the short-lived source: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/CHESS-LIFE-... |
|
Jan-06-19 | | whiteshark: here's another cover: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/0zYA... similar source: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-Chess... |
|
Jan-07-19 | | Eastfrisian: <MissScarlett> I did already before. Interesting and sad indeed. <whiteshark> Thank you. |
|
Jan-07-19 | | Howard: Didn't know he made the cover TWICE! I definitely remember the August 1975 one. |
|
Jan-07-19
 | | perfidious: Had forgotten about the cover from '73, but well remembered the reprise. |
|
Jan-08-19 | | Howard: How long have you been a USCF member ? Personally, I've been a member for 44 years! |
|
Jan-08-19
 | | perfidious: Me? Joined in October 1972, and about the first cover of CL&R I got in the post featured the late Al Horowitz, just after his final US Championship appearance and death. |

Mar-20-22 | | jerseybob: Perfidious <JohnBoy: Weinstein won the following game in brilliant fashion. It should be in this database.365chess.com. Perfidious: Remarkable game indeed; if you have not submitted it, I shall.> As advertised, a great game, following Grefe-Browne up to black's 14th, when DeFotis varied with 14..Qa5, whereupon Weinstein unleashed 15.Nxe6! That game really needs to be in the database. |
|
Mar-21-22
 | | MissScarlett: Your wish, etc.: N Weinstein vs G S DeFotis, 1973 |
|
Mar-23-22 | | jerseybob: <MissScarlett: Your wish, etc.: N Weinstein vs G S DeFotis, 1973> Great! |
