Oct-18-08  Eastfrisian: Vitali Koziak is an Ukranian IM and born on 11. January 1975.
Jul-15-13  csmath: One nice game with Koziak easily demolishing Jordan Ivanov in classical Grunfeld is missing here. Ivanov should upload that since the game is of some interest to opening theory even though Ivanov played badly.
