Kibitzer's Corner
Jul-02-04  nikolaas: I don't know much about him, but I'll say what I know. Born 28 december 1959 in German. In 1988 he became grandmaster. But further... Anybody has some information?
Aug-17-04  Kaspy2: he wrote the book on Winawer
Mar-15-05  Karpova: He got a german chess site (together with yusupov, lutz) http://www.chessgate.de

There's a nice game he played with white against korchnoi. Korchnoi played Caro-Kann (closed) without bringing out his bc8. he came up moving his rh8 around and then castled short. they agreed to a draw after finding out about this some 25 moves later.

Sep-01-07  whiteshark: He also wrote <Leningrad System - a complete weapon against 1 d4> in 2005 as an updated english edition.
Sep-01-07  whiteshark: <Kaspy2: he wrote the book on Winawer>

He wrote it together with Dirr Ulrich. That's only dealing with <7.Qg4 0-0> on incredible 342 pages!

Sep-01-07  Prugno: Since he is German, does anyone know why he plays under the Austrian flag these days?
Sep-01-07  whiteshark: In this interwiev he said that he is now <Austrian citizen>: http://www.schachlinks.com/cgi-bin/...
Sep-01-07  whiteshark: Picture:
http://www.mucschach.de/images/sk3....

bio: (in German) http://www.mucschach.de/Kontakt/sk....

Link to the webpage of his Munic Chess academy http://www.mucschach.de/

Feb-06-08  bauernfresser: I think he is Austrian, but has lived in Germany since childhood, and used to play for Germany. According to http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan... he was actually born in Vienna, Austria.
He was a regular in the German national team in the 80s and early 90s, but couldn't keep up when all those emigrants from the former Soviet Union came during the 90s.

  Penguincw: Happy Birthday!
Dec-28-12  waustad: Happy b'day! Clearly he hasn't retired after playing in the Olympiad this Summer. http://www.olimpbase.org/players/ok...
Dec-28-12  waustad: He also played first board for Austria in the Trans-Europa-Schach-Express tournament: http://chess-results.com/tnr82978.a...
May-23-15  Conrad93: Now I know where I have heard of this guy before. His opening book was mentioned in Moskalenko's The Wonderful Winawer.

<He wrote it together with Dirr Ulrich. That's only dealing with <7.Qg4 0-0> on incredible 342 pages!>

Yes, described as the Warsaw Variation.

Surprisingly solid, evne though it seems to invite an attack on the kingside.
