Wang Hao Debut

This is definitely a fellow we need to watch. He is only 16 and virtually unknown until his recent appearance in the Dubai Open... but his performance at the chess board was, shall we say, sensational?

Although he has no FIDE title, out of 53 Grandmasters and 30 International Masters, he came out on top of all the chess players, with a 2484 rating and 7 points.

The Garry Kasparov Interview, Part 2

A couple days ago I posted a link to part 1 of the Gary Kasparov Interview by Mig Greengard.

He has now posted part 2 at the chessbase site.

Great info about his own play, specific games, and even some good information from Garry about what he considers his best games. Whether you are interested Garry and politics, or if you are more interested in chess strategies and chess tactics, check this interview out.
