 | | ketchuplover: We must keep a suspicious eye on this girl |
|
Apr-13-18 | | happyjuggler0: For anyone wondering what ketchuplover is talking about: https://www.chess.com/news/view/gm-... She is currently in the Sharjah Masters tournament and got a draw against a 2626 player in round 2 today (she beat a 1559 in round 1). http://chess-results.com/tnr337650.... |

Apr-14-18 | | Muttley101: <ketchuplover: We must keep a suspicious eye on this girl>
On what evidence? |
|
Apr-14-18 | | PhilFeeley: <She is currently in the Sharjah Masters tournament> So that's why she's not playing in the European Women's Championship. Elizaveta Solozhenkina, however, is. |
|
Feb-27-19 | | sonia91: She plays again for Kazakhstan, strangely her transfer fee was only 750 euro: http://ratings.fide.com/fedchange.p... |

 | | perfidious: Someone published a table on CG a few years back: FIDE fees are on a sliding scale. If you're a 2186 fish like myself, believe there is no fee. Top GM, my recollection is that the number is 20k or so. |
|
Feb-27-19 | | sonia91: But she is rated 2374, peak rating over 2400... while Katarzyna Toma was under 2200 in Nov 2018 when she switched to England, peak rating 2324, her transfer fee was 1500 euro (http://ratings.fide.com/fedchange.p...)... |
|
Feb-27-19
 | | perfidious: That <is> bizarre; I noticed on the list that no-one's fee is less than 300 euro. Good ol' Ilyumzhinov loves to suck all the quid he can to line his pockets. |
|
Feb-27-19 | | nok: <That <is> bizarre> Bibizarre, even. |
|
Mar-05-19 | | sonia91: She is already playing for Kazakhstan in the Women's World Team Championship in Astana (Kazakhstan) on board 3. She was added on the team at the last moment (right after the federation switch: http://chess-news.ru/node/25668 (in Russian)), when FIDE already published the teams line-ups (https://www.fide.com/component/cont...), kicking Madina Davletbayeva out of the team. Today in the opening round, her team was paired against her former federation, Russia; she held to a draw Valentina Gunina. |

Jan-01-22 | | cro777: Only 17 and already a world champion!
17-year-old Bibisara Assaubayeva won the 2021 FIDE Women’s World Blitz Championship with a round to spare, after winning second place in the Women’s Rapid Championship. With impressive 13 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, she finished clear 1st, half a point ahead of the Rapid Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FH4Civq... |

 | | Dionysius1: Well, I enjoyed that. Probably because the tactics were unfamiliar to me. Great for White spotting that after 7...Bh6 there's no ...Nh6 to protect the legendary weak f7. So Qa5 is worth a go to rattle Black's cage. I didn't understand the point of 13.a4 since 13.b5 was no immediate threat - Assaubayeva already had that covered. The unfamiliar tactic again with 19...Nf4 20.Qg7 and a fork I don't think I would have seen, or at least not planned for. I know "sharp" is a bit of a cliché, so I'll think of all this as edgy. White was really wide awake in territory where there were predictable moves. Assaubayeva comes from Kazakhstan. Is this part of the fresh tactical awareness people have been talking about among the non-traditional chess playing countries? As if they don't have time to learn the old tactics, they'll make up new ones for themselves thanks. Great fun to see. |

You should put those notes on the game page! |

 | | Dionysius1: You're so right!
I assumed I had of course - just lost track of which page I was on. I've done that now. Thanks for spotting it. |
