Kibitzer's Corner
Jul-30-09  whiteshark: Unter dem Eindruck der vollständigen Entzauberung der Welt fordern <Evgeny Alekseev> und <Maxime Vachier Lagrave> das Moment der Unentscheidbarkeit zu bezwingen und die gesellschaftliche und politische Bedeutung als eine Art Medium einer Beantwortung zuzuführen.

Dogmatische Aussage der von ökonomischem Kalkül geprägten Arbeit <Agonie Biel 2009> ist die interkulturelle Ratlosigkeit der Europäer.

Aug-05-09  vanytchouck: It's interesting to know that according to A. Hauchard (MVL's coach), Moro complained about the quick draw in the last round between Alekseev and MVL.

Nov-06-10  Shams: Moro finished a half-point back, tied with Ivanchuk. MVL finished clear first with six points, whereas Alekseev, had he pressed in this game with white, could have shared first with a win. Given that Moro had four wins, and no other player had more than two, I suppose he was entitled to kvetch.
