Apr-19-08 | | brankat: <whiteshark> A few minutes ago (about 9:30 PM, Germany) I tried to post in Your forum, but it would not let. Says that I'm on Your ignore list!? I think it must be a mistake :-) |

Apr-19-08 | | NakoSonorense: <brankat> Doh! If you're on his ignore list, he will not read this! <brankat: <whiteshark> A few minutes ago (about 9:30 PM, Germany) I tried to post in Your forum, but it would not let. Says that I'm on Your ignore list!?

Apr-19-08 | | brankat: <NakoSonorense> Thanks. Yes, I just remembered, he replied to my post to him on <Irene Winter> player's page yesterday. So, as I suspected it's not the ignore. Either a software glitch, or more likely he uses the forum solely for his end-games study. Just about all the posts there are his. |

Apr-19-08 | | whiteshark: ooops. I'd overshot. Sry |
|
Apr-19-08 | | gadfly: Happy Birthday, adashka, and wishes for a most successful year! |

Sep-15-08 | | chessya11: To quote from Whitman:
<What I don't understand is why players insist on playing 1...Nf6 when Stefanova has White. Stefanova has one answer to that, the Tromp. And invariably she knows the opening better than her opponent and wins. This to me signals that you must either (A) play something other than Nf6; or (B) learn the Tromp better than Stefanova (good luck there).Instead, players choose option (C) which is allow the Tromp without a clue, and lose. No sense whatsoever.> I couldn't agree more. Morons.
Solution: play 1...h6 and watch Stefanova cry. |

Mar-05-09 | | whiteshark: <Antoaneta Stefanova>, is one of the three <ex-world champions> in the field. She learnt playing at the age of four and her father was her initial tutor. At the age of 7 she already became the champion of Sofia, her hometown. She won world youth title in <1989>. She is one of the women players that compete successfully against men and her results can be traced back to <1993> which was the time she started taking part in Chess Olympiads and she has participated <five Olympiads>. She joined the men's team for the Olympiad in İstanbul, <2000>. She already joined the top ten of women ranking in FIDE rating list back in 1997 but also won the crown for <world championship in 2004> and held the title until 2006. Stefanova won the bronze medal in European Individual Championship in <2007>, which she already won in <2002>. Last year she won the North Urals Cup, another women's super tournament but was not able to retake the crown for FIDE World Women Chess Championship since she failed to advance to the semi final in her mini-match against Pia Cramling. from http://istanbul2009.fide.com/stefan... |

Aug-05-09 | | percyblakeney: On comments said to her after games Stefanova mentions (in NIC 4/2009) "I never thought I would lose to a woman!" from a 1900-rated player after losing to the GM... |

Mar-27-10 | | wordfunph: "I can't name one favorite player as I admire many --- each for different reasons. Let's put it this way: my father taught me chess by playing through all the games of Bobby Fischer. Then there was also Mikhail Tal. A long time ago I even had a chance to play him in a simul. I was five years old and I made a draw! And Garry Kasparov is another player I would like to mention." GM Antoaneta Stefanova |

Apr-04-10 | | Albertan: I have analyzed Antoaneta's second round game from the current Russian Women's Team Chess Championship against World Women's Chess Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk , and posted this analysis to the first page of my blog at http://albertan1956.blogspot.com/
using Chessviewer Deluxe. I hope you come by my blog and play through this game, which is game #36 in the Chessviewer Deluxe game directory. This game proves that it is possible for Black to win when playing the Berlin Defense against the Ruy Lopez! |
