  chessgames.com: After discovering a large number of games played by Sergey Kasparov but attributed to Garry Kasparov, we moved about sixty suspect games from Garry's list to here. If you notice more games that need to be moved, or games here that were actually Garry's, please let us know. Thanks.
Sep-26-03  totoma: has that man a link with garri?
Oct-10-03  Helloween: A picture of the "other" Kasparov:

http://www.chessbase.de/events/bild...

Apr-22-04  Bobsterman3000: Being the "other" Kasparov must not be fun.
Apr-22-04  ruylopez900: <Helloween> He looks depressed in that pic.
Apr-22-04  MoonlitKnight: He looks like he's thinking "Why oh why couldn't he keep Weinstein?!"
Apr-22-04  Bobsterman3000: Chessgames.com -- I think that the following game ought to be moved to the list for Sergey Kasparov:

Huzman vs Kasparov, 2003

lol

Apr-22-04  iron maiden: His record in the database isn't so bad, really...24 wins and six losses. I'd be happy to be "the other Kasparov" if I could be as good as Sergey!
Apr-22-04  acirce: He is a strong IM with Elo 2497, so yeah, he's not bad if you don't do unnecessary comparisons. :-)
Apr-22-04  Akavall: Is he related to Garry Kasparov?
Apr-22-04  dafish298: yes..he is kasparov's evil twin brother who was created in a laboratory

  tamar: <kasparov's evil twin brother> More evil than Garry?
May-11-04  Bears092: i was watching this guy play on ICC for a while...

He can more than hold his own against other IMs in blitz...

Jul-02-04  acirce: Kasparov is down to 2484 on the new list.
Jul-02-04  Dionyseus: Bobsterman, no, that was actually Garry. http://www.chessib.com/revcsoct3.html

He beat Grishuk, Sakaev, Jobava, Chuchelov, and drawing his game with Ivanchuk. Lost to Huzman on round 6.

Jul-02-04  acirce: Bobsterman was joking.
Jul-02-04  tanginamo: kind of conflicting..modern benoni, benko gambit & then all of a sudden a caro-kann? i guess he plays positional against 1.e4 but aggressive against 1.d4...interesting though.

  offramp: I have heard that he has retired.
Apr-09-05  aw1988: Sergey and Garry have both retired, <offramp>?
Apr-28-05  acirce: Kasparov is playing on the ICC with the handle 'masis'. His 6th finger note begins with "I'm not a strong chessplayer".

  cu8sfan: You can finger players on the internet, you don't need to be an ICC member for that: http://www.chessclub.com/activities...
Apr-28-05  Shokwave: Bwahaha...I like note #9:

"9: I like to play with women ( chess also) (:"

Oct-28-05  cuendillar: I guess he's in the same situation namewise as Tigran A Petrosian. Not bad, but always the "other one"
Jan-26-06  EmperorAtahualpa: <chessgames.com> Please check this game:

Huzman vs Kasparov, 2003

I think the above game should be attributed to Sergey Kasparov rather than Garry Kasparov.

Jan-26-06  mikejaqua: <EmperorAtahualpa> Why?
