Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-01-07  Karpova: Great result for GM Shulman and Boskovic!

http://www.utdallas.edu/news/archiv...

Feb-01-07  Strongest Force: I talked to Ramirez at the ICC. My impression was that he was one of the most intelligent persons i've ever spoken to.
Feb-01-07  BadTemper: Very many upsets in this tournament. Quite a few 2200's beating 2400. Great games too. Check em all out people.
Feb-01-07  BishopofBlunder: Although I live just north of Dallas (Richardson, where the tournament was held, is a suburb of Dallas), I did not have the opportunity to attend the games in person. But I did watch them live online.

I was impressed by Ramirez's play. He moves quickly, always seeming to be ahead on time, and his moves are very sharp. His play reminds me a bit of Anand.
