Nov-02-21  Nosnibor: Was he on the cusp of becoming a grandmaster?

He was not really. Very strong player and late bloomer who made IM in his forties

There are further reportings in 2019 he will have entered (a well deserved) full blown chess break even stepping down as youth trainer in his club.

Nov-03-21  Z truth 000000001: He must win on occasion even with such a meager rating!

(2300+ is *not* a meager rating, to be clear)

Here's one where he takes on another 2300+ player (also already on <CG>):

Yes, taking the rook wins too, but Brink's last move in the game was "lights-out".
