810609: <chessya11> seriously, what can Svidler do when in team competition opponent just has a team like Emsdetten - with IM on board 2? Shirov (board 1) won in 30, Movsesian (board 4) in 24 (!!) moves, so Svidler is not hiding, he is just doing what he is paid for - winning. But ...

810609: <Touchdown> 14.Bxc7 Kxc7 15.d5 Qd7 16. Qf4+ is ad because of 16. ... Bd6 17. Qd3 Kb8 18. Nxe4 Qa4 (maybe something like Rd4 now, but hard to find any good continuation for White, isn�t it?) and you got very little compensation for the sacrificied bishop. But 14.Bxc7 Kxc7 ...

810609: <dazone3> with Navara, nothing is impossible... Btw Slovakia won today 4-0 against Yemen. Yemen made interesting decision to put on board 1 against Sergei Movsesian, one of the most-in-form players of these days, Khalil Al-Subaihi rated 2154. Apparently it didn´t work as ...

810609: Is there a special prize for a longest game of a championship? :-) But now it seems to me that also Volokitin is trying to win this game, because I´m almost sure that there must have been 3rd repetition of position at least once...

810609: 1. the toughtest player with whites <Kramnik> - when he fully concentrates, there is almost zero chance to get him into unknown territory 2. the most dangerous player with blacks <Radjabov> - he seems to be the only top player who thinks that Black is really OK and the ...

810609: <unikum> I think at least Judit Polgar would take it as an offence, saying that Hungaria is "in the East". And saying that Kramnik is ruling on purpose in favour of Danailov´s camp, that is... uhm... act of comical genius?
