 | | Open Defence: <lopium> yes my nick name refers to the Open Variation of the Ruy Lopez :-D |
|
| Oct-30-05 | | lopium: Ahahaz! I have to check it! Thanksxz! I will learn. |
|
| Oct-30-05 | | Johnox: I also love the open defence specially if White willing to go (in a gambit after a long opening) with Nbd2 then ...Bxf2+ then Rxf2 then Black plays ...f6 etc. What do you call that variation? |

| Jan-05-06 | | WMD: Leko interview with NIC from January 1995:
<How did you get to work together with Adorjan?We concluded that I needed someone who played more aggressively. We asked Adorjan and he was happy to work with me. But then of course there were many problems with him. He created lots of scandals at tournaments and I got the message that if he came to a tournament I would not be welcome either. So that didn't work and we stopped. Yet, I never met anyone who understood so much about chess as he does. He can play unbelievably good chess. His psychological problems are a different matter. What kind of scandals did he create?
Pff, at the end of tournaments he would talk all kinds of rubbish. Hold speeches that the Jews were bad. He doesn't like Jews. I have good contacts with the Polgars, but he is on very bad terms with them. So, after I had made my first grandmaster norm and it was quite clear that I would break Judit's record, he stated that I would cause great damage to the Jewish cause by breaking this record. For me this was uninteresting, because in my view all people are equal. So I told him that if he didn't change we could no longer work together.> I wonder if he told Bobby the same thing. |

2) a
3) a (without a doubt)
4) 1633 (that's what the USCF says, but I often lose to much lower rated opponents and my chess coach says I should be rated about 200 points more!)

| May-28-06 | | Giancarlo: An update it due right now.
It's been a while. The survey as you know, is not just taking place here on chessgames.com. Currently, there are too many participants to mention. Atleast 2000. Our goal is 2500, so as soon as we have that number, I will inform this site, and come out with such results as quickly as possible. |

| Jun-20-06 | | jjp: I guess I will weigh in on the survey
1 a
2 c
3 c
4 well, my FICS rating fluctuates between 1850 and 1750 depending on how angry I am when I play. The FICS rating is the only rating I have.
5 c, but I hate blitz with a passion.
6 c
7 c
8 b
9 b
10 b
I have to ask why is this survey being taken on the Adorjan page? |
|
| Jun-20-06 | | Giancarlo: I think it is obvious why it is not taken on the Kibitzers cafe. We have choosen here for the following reasons: (1) There is not so much talking on this page, so it is easy to keep track (2) This survey was partly inspired by Adorjan's books (The BLACK is OK series) Other then that, apologies for any inconveniences. |

| Aug-03-06 | | Amulet: Amulet: Giancarlo: RE:My game:I'm gonna post it here so it doesn't get lost in the Kibitzers cafe :-) Hi all.
A game of mine as played about 2 months ago, maybe 1, and I was planning on posting it here, but I always forget. I'm not going to post the game, but a position from the game. I analyzed the position later to try and read all the lines. The position is: <White(Me):>

<The Lines>
<a)>1..fxe6 2.rxf6+ Bxf6 3.rxf6+ kg7 4.Qf7++ (3..ke7 4.Qf7+ Kd8 5.rxe6 ) <b)>1..Qd7 2.rxf6

[d2A]5..Qc1+ 6.Kg2 Qc2+ 7.Kh3 Qc8+ 8.g4
[d2B]5..Kg8 6.Bxf7+
[d2C]5..Ke8 6.rxf7 (6..Qc1+ 7.Kg2 Qc2+ 8.Kh3 Qc8+ 9.Bf5) I did the analysis with my bare mind, so I'm asking anyone who's intrested to look over my analysis, correct any wrong lines, point out any more lines, etc. I think I'm right, but I also think I can beat Kasparov :-) |
|
| Aug-25-06 | | poptart: 1) a (always, and I usually try for an evans gambit)
2) a (Favorte player= morphy)
3) a
4) 1250 uscf, but quickly rising
5) a
6) c, but it depends what mood I'm in
7) c, at least when black plays for a draw, then white can play for a win
8) b (lol i'm 6th grade)
9) a (to me, thats what makes chess so interesting
10)a, 2 years
I'll be happy to see the results. |

| Sep-02-06 | | suenteus po 147: Adorjan's quote today, <The overwhelming majority of chess players try to build up a serious repertoire as White, and aim for safety as black. They do not really want to win with the black pieces, or can not imagine how it is possible.>, is kind of funny to me because I seem to have developed the opposite way. I spent a long time trying to develop a great repertoire for black, and with white I just try to play solidly. The point for all of us seems to be to take equal care with both colors. |

| Sep-02-06 | | KingG: <The overwhelming majority of chess players try to build up a serious repertoire as White, and aim for safety as black. They do not really want to win with the black pieces, or can not imagine how it is possible.> Hmmm. I'm the opposite. I spend most of my time on openings studying the Najdorf and Semi-Slav, which i play as Black(although i play them as White as well, which is quite useful). As White, the only opening i spend much time on is the King's Gambit. Apart from that, i just play tons of blitz games and improve my opening theory when reviewing the games with Fritz afterwards. But i try and win with both colors. I don't believe in playing for a draw. |

 | | Domdaniel: Ciao <Giancarlo> - that should be 'sole purpose' but I understand what you mean.
In truth, it's not so simple; many of my answers vary - do I feel like Tal or Karpov tonight? After winning a sacrificial game one loves sacs, after winning a nice endgame they are preferable. After losing, it's the other way round. However, I'll try: 1.) c (Nf3)
2.) b
3.) c
4.) 1930 ELO
5.) b
6.) c
7.) c
8.) =, lately; b, in the long term
9.) b
10.) f
Hope this helps. |
