Nov-30-11 | | wordfunph: "The biggest success my wife (Elmira Skripchenko) had is her participation in the tournament poker in Las Vegas, she won 80 thousand dollars within only 4 days. In principle, you can win
a lot in poker. So, now my wife is the main breadwinner of our family (laughs)!" - GM Laurent Fressinet
happy 30th birthday GM Fressinet! |

Mar-24-12 | | waustad: Welcome back to the 2700 club. I suppose the only real advantage to that over 2695 from the fan's perspective is that your live rating is posted now. |

 | | Penguincw: He jumped more than anyone else in the 2700 club right now (23 places!). McShane is next, jumping 19 places. |
|

 | | Penguincw: Fressinet won to take the lead at 8/10, ahead of 7 half back. He has black against Dmitry Jakovenko, and a draw insures at least shared first. In terms of rating, he is now France #1, and also the only Frenchman in the 2700 club. Congratz! |
|
Mar-31-12
 | | Penguincw: He stumbled in the end, due to a decisive mistake on move 33. Nevertheless, he still picks up a silver (finishes up with 8/11), over 18 rating points, and a ticket to the World Cup 2013 (I assume). |

 | | Penguincw: < twinlark: <Penguincw> He does. > Thanks. Although I'm not sure they use a prime number of people qualify. Maybe it's 24, and a grand total of 48 get in. |
|
Apr-02-12 | | twinlark: <Penguincw>
According to Chessdom, 23 will qualify: http://www.chessdom.com/dmitry-jako.... 14 are known but it seems they want to be certain of the tiebreak results as they'll have to split the field that scored 7.5. |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: Beat <Kramnik> here Kramnik vs Fressinet, 2013 |
|
Apr-29-13 | | Chessinfinite: Laurent was made to behave properly by the World Champion today at Alekhine Memorial. Fressinet's brilliance may work against his master Kramnik, not against Anand :! Maybe Laurent will consider kissing Anand's shoe next time :) |

Aug-12-13 | | Marmot PFL: Does Fressinet have 2 or 3 syllables? |
|
Aug-12-13 | | Nerwal: <Does Fressinet have 2 or 3 syllables?> 3. Frey (as in prey) - si - nay |
|
Aug-12-13 | | Marmot PFL: Thanks, that's fairly close to what I guessed. |

 | | Penguincw: Nice effort by Laurent Fressinet at the EnterCard Scandinavian Masters (2015). He was selected as one of 6 players to compete for a spot at the upcoming Norway Chess Tournament. The tournament was divided into 2 parts: classical (games worth double the points) and rapid. Fressinet managed to match Hammer stride-for-stride with 4.5/5 (9 points, their H2H game drawn). In the rapid games, Hammer won his first game, and beat Fressinet with black in a crucial game. They both won their Round 8 games, while Fressinet won in R9 to pull within a point, but all Round 10 games were drawn. On the bright side, he gains 8.1 rating points to move into a tie with Nepomniachtchi for 31st on the live ratings. Also, he can cheer for compatriot MVL at the Norway tournament. ;) |

 | | Penguincw: < Also, he can cheer for compatriot MVL at the Norway tournament. ;) > FWIW: MVL scored 4/9 (+1,-2,=6), tie for 5th.
Laurent Fressinet had a solid performance at the Porticcio Open, scoring 7/9 (+5,-0,=4), against 2380 opposition. |

Feb-11-19 | | cliffordagoodman: I find Laurent Fressinets games to be very childish. It seems as if he plays with 2 year olds!! |
