Chess Quote of The Day

I learnt a lot from that, and I feel that it is a big reason why I now have a good intuitive understanding of chess .     -  Magnus Carlsen Quote Source : www.chessquotes.com Image Suorce :  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Carlsen

It highlights the boy's tactical genius and Fischer-like exploitation of not-so-obvious weaknesses. Frame it. When this game was played in July of 2002, Karjakin was just 12 years of age. Just one month later, Karjakin would become the youngest Grandmaster ever at 12 years and 7 months exactly. http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1253303 IM Sergey Karjakin vs IM Vasily Borisovich Malinin: "Kids Play the Darndest Things" (game of the day May-13-07) - Sudak UKR 2002 - Scotch Game: Modern Defense (C45), Steinetz variation [Event "Sudak UKR"] [Site "It"] [Date "2002.08.07"] [Round "7"] [White "Sergey Karjakin...
