(note that Essoh is his first name and Essis his surname)
Yeah I wondered about that but I found it rendered different ways in different sources! Come to that, anyone know if it's actually Urošević?

Malcolm Pein is also involved with the Kasparov Chess Foundation and a member of the GCT Advisory Board. That doesn't make Kasparov a Makropoulos supporter.
This is not the worst point ever made (it's also in part why there's a caveat on the subject in my original posting) and I will be interested to see how this is addressed if Malcolm has any further comment to make.

Anyway thanks to all for comments so far (but especially to David and Nick). All I'd say for myself is that the one thing I'm reasonably sure of is that Kasparov is not being entirely frank with the public.
"Do you play chess?"
"Yes, but I prefer a game with a better chance of cheating."
