Jan-04-06 | | Trotski: Listen Moe - Wells BUYS you out - you dont buy him out! Is he good, he will be in your state for a few days, think about an opening! |
|
Jan-04-06 | | johnwgoes: His book on the scotch opening is quite good. |
|
Jan-04-06 | | atripodi: He also wrote a great book on the Trompowski. |
|
Jan-04-06 | | Hoozits: I have that book as well, atripodi. It is excellent. I especially like the detail and the "off-beat" variations that he goes into. I've enjoyed playing the Tromp more because of his book. |

 | | Eggman: BIDMONFA: Why do you keep turning up on a player's page and then provide a link to that very page, as you do above? Is that supposed to be funny? |
|
May-08-06 | | jamesmaskell: Its for his site, Spanish language chess website. Its as they say, there are three things certain in life, death, taxes, and a page on BIDMONFA for every chessplayer! |
|
May-08-06 | | Stevens: i thought there was supposed to be a rule against spamming and advertsing, so i complained. to absolutely no effect! so i used the ignore feature instead. i see from other members though that this is still going on. |

 | | Eggman: <<Its for his site, Spanish language chess website>> I was referring to the link that says "Peter K Wells", and when you click on it it brings you to ... this very page! I don't get the intention. |
|
May-08-06 | | jamesmaskell: Oh, yeah, I noticed that. Maybe for those who use the BIDMONFA site who dont read this one? It seems plausible but unlikely given this is the best chess database and first port of call for me at least when it comes to new players. |

The second link in the entry from BIDMONFA takes you to the starting page for their file on Wells (a photograph, date of birth and links to his games). I do not know why BIDMONFA always includes the first link, which just restores the CG page on which you started. |

 | | Peligroso Patzer: <atripodi: He also wrote a great book on the Trompowski.> Wells's book on the Trompowsky should gain credibiltiy from his 13-move defeat of Shirov earlier this year using that opening! |
|
May-12-07 | | Octavia: Peter Wells is a very friendly guy & fluent in Hungarian! He also wrote "Chess explained THE QUEEN'S INDIAN" pub. Gambit, 2006 - it goes into great detail... |
|

Oct-10-13 | | PhilFeeley: Wow! This fantastic game (not here yet!) would make a good puzzle some day, perhaps black to play at move 42. Seems to have been the turnaround for this game. White had all the pressure before that. Wells, Peter K 2410 - Kindermann, Stefan 2515

yes interesting game, but In that game 57.Rd8+ looks like a lemon. White to move - 57. __?__
 click for larger viewInstead of 57.Rd8+ White is better to keep the black K on the back rank with Rd7! attacking the b pawn. Then if ..b6 58. Rb7 with the idea
..Rh6 59. Rxb6 Rxb6 60. Nd7+ Ke7 61. Nxb6 and the position is drawn |
