Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-24-11  wordfunph: any relation to GM Luc Winants?
Sep-24-11  libertyjack: Yes. Henri Winants is Luc's father (keep that in mind for a pun). He's in my club (CREB) and still playing strong chess. He has an exceptional sense of the position.

Everyone calls him "Dr Henri Winants" as he is a psychologist. He's an eminant figure of belgian chess. He was belgian champion in 1975.

Funnily enough, I played him today and lost. My score against him in rated games is +1 =2 -2

Jun-28-14  PivotalAnorak: Dr H Winants passed away recently (June 19, 2014).
