EeEk has kibitzed 1020 times to chessgames   [more...]

Dec-28-15 Kinghunt chessforum    ...      Apr-27-15 Magnus Carlsen    EeEk: World Blitz & Rapid Championship takes place in October, not June. It will be held in a major European city.      Feb-01-15 GRENKE Chess Classic (2015)    EeEk: <Jim Bartle: What is the purpose of having one player so much lower-rated than the rest?> Baramidze is German, the tournament is held in Germany. It makes perfect sense to include two locals in such a field, as in Norway Chess last year and the year before. And many other events.      Apr-23-14 Gashimov Memorial (2014)    EeEk: <jamesmaskell> Yes, I'm sure the organizers just made those quotes up. He didn't actually say any of it.      Feb-18-14 Zurich Chess Challenge (2014)    EeEk: <Overgod> is totally right of course. The talk about rating inflation is exaggerated. I believe that the main reason why there are more 2700+ players now, is simply because there are more professionals around, leading to more strong players. It's "easier" to learn the game ...      Oct-27-13 Anand - Carlsen World Championship Match (2013)    EeEk: <NGambit: I hope the organizers manage to have Svidler and/or Leko as expert commentators. Both of them are superb.> Lawrence Trent and Susan Polgar have already been hired as commentators.      Jul-10-13 Aryan Tari    EeEk: Aryan just completed all the requirements for the IM title and is set to become one of the youngest IM's in the world at 14. Full report: http://bit.ly/1dhmnVs      Mar-16-13 World Championship Candidates (2013)    EeEk: Here is the video of the Press Conference with Carlsen and Kramnik after the game (sorry for the quality, but it's hearable): http://youtu.be/IzxEhTNjlSQ      Dec-27-11 Alexander Morozevich    EeEk: Go Morozevich! I bet we will see him surpass Radjabov as 5th on the Live list at the end of the tournament...      Dec-15-11 Hans Arild Runde    EeEk: <Buraucrat> It does say on his site why the updates stopped. In addition, there is no reason to have two sites doing exactly the same job.
