Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Russia rules! Svidler is King!
Russia still wants Moose and Squirrel!
Russia is the best!!! Why is there no invitation to play as guests for USA, Mexico, Canda and Australia? We don’t need to be divided by continents!
Another sad story published on Internet:
V.Bykov. Ayse Kesim: a new world-class chess star?
An article by the captain of the ‘FINEC’ women team permanently entering the top five at European Club Cups, deals with the last such event in Kemer, Turkey. In a round 1 game a 13-year old Turkish girl with Elo 1650 defeats a Russian grandmaster. What is it – rising of a new star of world chess or cheating?
Do we need more love and peace, not accusing computers?
All I have to say about the Turkish girl winner…
Girl Power!!!
Yeah!!!!
