TheAlchemist: Thank you, you too!
 
   Dec-09-24 Ding Liren vs D Gukesh, 2024 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: The genius of Ding's play to me was how (except Nb5) he made moves solely on his own half of the board and in 25 moves he completely outplayed Gukesh.
 
   Oct-28-23 D Lazavik vs Wojtaszek, 2023 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: White played a seemingly clever sacrifice, but the refutation on move 25 was simply stunning
 
   May-09-23 M Kolesar vs O Sikorova, 1998 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: <goodevans: Will we have another Milan-based pun tomorrow when its two big football teams face each other in the Champions League Semi-Final? https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsl... It's a huge reach, but you could call it even timelier. Unfortunately Slovaks call it ...
 
   Apr-30-23 Nepomniachtchi vs Ding Liren, 2023 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: Amazing, what a finish, what a match. Congratulations, Ding!
 
   Nov-08-22 D Citra vs R Vaishali, 2016 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: Great pun!
 
   Aug-08-22 European Team Championship (2001)
 
TheAlchemist: I'd have to dig out contemporary magazines to be sure, but I think it said Black simply left the playing hall and never returned, leaving everyone puzzled (teammates included).

TheAlchemist: Terrible news. Rest in peace, PB.
 
   Oct-17-21 Keres vs A Sakovski, 1936 (replies)
 
TheAlchemist: I also forgot to add that both of those are masculine forms, the feminine one would be "šahistka". I was a bit too fast with the reply.

Jul-25-11  brankat: Hi Uros!

How are things?

I assume You are done with the school by now. Working already? :-)

Jul-25-11  brankat: Btw, it was a very nice game between You and Robin, although it left the rest of us waiting for extra 3 months :-)

  TheAlchemist: Hi! Yes, sorry about that :-), I guess I thought I could still find something (that probably wasn't there).

Anyway, yes, I'm currently working in a nearby hospital, though currently just until October.

Jul-26-11  brankat: Any plans for post-October? Other than a New Year's party :-)
Aug-06-11  Dr. J: Today's POTD is nice: Zimmermann vs Huebner, 1977
Sep-19-11  brankat: Well, it looks like our tournament at QA will go on for another 2 years ;-)
Oct-14-11  brankat: Good morning Uros! :-)
Nov-11-11  brankat: <TheAlchemist> Hi Uros!

I'm sure You'll love this one (unless You've seen it already). A long article about / bio of Dr.Vidmar: "A Slovenian Leonardo", together with some rare photos and pictures. A few games, too.

The text is in Russian. You should probably be able to understand most of it. Enjoy:

Nov-18-11  brankat: Hi Uros!

This in regard to todays POTD, A.Mikhalchishin. You posted on his page a while back.

<TheAlchemist: This was an article written by Mikhalchishin when he turned 50. I apologize in advance for any typos and other mistakes, hopefully there won't be too many.

<Part I>

The Golden Chess Age - The 20th Century!

Dr. Milan Vidmar wrote the brilliant book "Goldene Schachzeiten", which describes the 1920's and 30's. Vidmar, among other things, predicted a world crisis and that it would all lead to a catastrophe (which indeed happened with WWII).> etc

You ended the post with:

<(I have to wrap this one up, other parts coming shortly)>

This was 1 year and 7 months ago. Still patiently waiting for Part II ;-)
