| Landzhev: An interview with Topalov after the victory in Zug. The whole thing (with the original Russian audio also in it) can be found here: http://chess-news.ru/en/node/11875 It's a good and insightful read, I especially liked what he says about his comeback and about Carlsen: "E.SUROV: I ... |

May-08-10 Anand - Topalov World Championship Match (2010)
| |
| Landzhev: <GM Kramnik: "Topalov was completely dead. I don't know when I saw THAT MUCH LUCK the last time."... "But, different from others, he still has good results when he doesn't play well. Maybe he knows tricks unknown to us mortals">
This is what it sounds like when you're ... |

Mar-22-10 Viswanathan Anand
| |
| Landzhev: Just listened to the interview... Kramnik says he has an "objective feeling" that Anand is the better player. "Objective feeling", that's a good one :) |

Feb-26-09 Topalov vs Kamsky, 2009
| |
| Landzhev: As I am reading the ongoing discussion here it seems to me that <Acirce> just clicks on the profiles of the Topalov fans (or anyone who has anything nice to say about Topalov) and if they happen to be Bulgarian, he goes - "Ah, I see. Sorry, but you're wrong". I do think that ... |

Feb-20-09 Topalov - Kamsky Candidates Final (2009)
| |
| Landzhev: This is a thing Gata likes to do, guess it helps him concentrate. I've seen him do it at Mtel Masters before - just sitting there and looking at the demonstration board. |

Nov-23-08 Dresden Olympiad (2008)
| |
| Landzhev: Chepa losing too... Not good.
I must admit I started suspecting that Veselin might lose right after I knew the pairings - and I am Bulgarian, and his fan. But with him and Shirov it's just a typical case of the "uncomfortable" opponent. It's not even about current form. But ... |

Sep-14-08 Grand Slam Chess Final (2008)
| |
| Landzhev: <visayan>, It's ironic what you say because Ivanchuk who "suffered" actually suggested these rules to Danailov! I don't want to repeat my posts, but if you look at page 100 from this discussion you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. I posted parts of an Ivanchuk ... |

Aug-31-08 I Cheparinov vs Ljubojevic, 2008
| |
| Landzhev: Nine is a good number for the moves in an instructive chess game... Made as much sense as the nine mover Yue-Bareev. |

Aug-25-08 NH Chess (2008)

| Landzhev: <kiseiju:><Even Cheparinov to a lesser axtent, who is less than 2700, but not so in projection.>
Cheparinov had already been at 2713 and has every right to be considered a "star". These two really are already supergms, but it's that Amber tournament ticket they're ... |
