Kibitzer's Corner

Jan-24-06   you vs yourself: Atalik has an insane +6 in the Corus-C group. 2 years from now, we might see this dude in Corus A.

How old is Atalik?

Jan-24-06   azaris: <2 years from now, we might see this dude in Corus A.>

I seriously doubt that.

Premium Chessgames Member		   percyblakeney: <How old is Atalik?> 42 this year.
Jan-24-06   you vs yourself: <percyblakeney> Thanks! He is older than I thought.

<azaris> Why? You think the B-group is too tough for him?

Jan-24-06   petrovalovski: He wouldn't win it.
Jan-26-06   Bobak Zahmat: <you vs yourself: <percyblakeney> Thanks! He is older than I thought. <azaris> Why? You think the B-group is too tough for him?> Sure it is! But Group C is too easy!
Jan-26-06   EricCartman: <Bobak Zahmat> The B group would be too hard for him indeed. In fact, he shouldn't participate in the tournament at all
Jan-26-06   Bobak Zahmat: <EricCartman> Good POINT!
Jan-28-06   Jafar219: And he wins group C! Very impressive!
Jan-29-06   sahmattr: I believe he will beat many players in this tournament. As far as I see, he is very fit and well-prepared. Pity for other players in the tournament.
Jan-29-06   THE pawn: How many elo points did he win with this great performance in corus?
Jan-30-06   Bobak Zahmat: <THE pawn> Should be around 25!
Feb-13-06   Bobak Zahmat: Nice pic added by cg.com
Feb-28-06   Chessmaster9001: Congratulations to Atalik and to all people of great country!

Turkiyenin qururu Azerbayjanin qururu!

Feb-28-06   jamesmaskell: A blitz game from playchess earlier today. Nasty last moves there by Suat but he was under time pressure at the end.

Premium Chessgames Member		   ahmadov: <Recently he married woman's grandmaster Ekaterina Polovnikova-Atalik.> This needs to be corrected on the player info, as his marriage is not recent already...
