Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-27-05  mohd rafi fan: this guy beat Kasparov?
Jan-28-05  Champ Supernova: yes, kasparov was 13 at the time. But kasparov was 10 when he beat this guy in their previous game.
Oct-20-05  ahmadov: Magerramov is 5 years older than Kasparov and he has three beautifully played wins against him in this database.
Oct-20-05  Jafar219: Magerramov took second place at USSR last championship.He played immortal game against Lembit Oll but that game is absent here in this database.You can find that game at Chessmaster 8000 programm.
