Vladimir Malakhov
No, but his memory doesn’t seem strong.
Vladimir Malakhov
Russian GM Malakov
Vlamidir Malakhov
GM Malakhov, the strongest non-professional chess player of the world!
Malakhov he has pHD in nuclear physics so i dint think there is anything wrong with his memory:)
That almost looks like Tiviakov.
Anyway, I’ll post one more game off the last “era”. Now these kind of games you encounter in amateur games. It started with white conceding the initiative to black, then giving him full freedom to do whatever he will. I guess it was the pretty finish that had me saving this. Still, here, I made mistakes. I don’t think he was so low rated compared to me at that time, only I couldn’t play to standard, only he didn’t have a clue! (The dutch opening doesn’t necessarily give this for someone who does not understand, not that I understand)
but the game was(and not too long): 1.c4 f5 2.e3 Nf6 3.h3 e6 4.a3 c6 5.d3 d5 6.Qc2 Bd6 7.Nf3 O-O 8. Be2 e5 9.c5 Bc7 10.e4 fxe4 11.dxe4 Nxe4 12.Bd2 Nxd2 13.Nbxd2 Qf6 14.O-O e4 15.Ne1 Qf4 16.g3 Qg5 17.Kg2 Rxf2+ 18Rxf2 Bxh3+ 19.Kg1 Qxg3+ 20.Ng2 Qh2+ 21.Kf1 Qh1.
And I have a further comment. I actually thought on that bishop sacrifice for a full minute or two, but could tell if it was good considering I had already sacrificed a rook (Well actually I thought on this before I sacrificed the rook), but I was disappointed when he chickened out. Of course, in amateur games, the English opening might suggest such an action, but I was interested in knowing what would happen. (Me having a very good advantage aside, I could not have the patience then)
I wonder how Americans are so thick !?
Malakhov.
Ok, my last comment must have been on another game. Of course that was mate! (Now looking at the game and not only remembering)
Malakhov, I think.
Malakohv, russian GM, often plays in China.
I wonder how Americans are so thick !?
If you want to know how thick ask your mother, Da?
