Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Susan, may be it is a time to invite Alex to SPICE Cup?
He is very talanted and although he was overshadowed by Hess and Robson recently, he was 2005 World Cadet Champion, the only American in the history. After that he spent 4 years to earn some money by teaching chess and only since last January he started to study chess once again and to become chess professional.
Looks like “Mr. Bean”!!!
Alex plays great. But he’s no teacher of chess. I’ve just watched his ICC lectures, and Fritz refutes some of what he gives as variations. He also came unprepared, and didn’t know sometimes what is the next position he will show?!
