May-01-06    iron maiden: Today's results, from the official site: Jan Timman - Suat Atalik ½-½ Tiger Hillarp-Persson - Igor Khenkin 1-0 Pontus Carlsson - Slavko Cicak 1-0 Alexei Fedorov - Jonny Hector 1-0 Emanuel Berg - Daniel Stellwagen 0-1 May-01-06    EmperorAtahualpa: Two Dutch on top! That's great. How many rounds does this tournament have? 9? May-01-06    babakova: Swedish chess is no longer what it once was...Instead we have an abundance of poker players. Seriously, who cares about poker? sigh... May-01-06    midknightblue: (babakova) I agree that it is a shame. May-03-06    BIDMONFA: Sigeman & Co (2006) SIGEMAN & CO TOURNAMENT Round 5, Leader - Jan Timman - 4'5 points General Information http://www.bidmonfa.com/informacio_... _ May-03-06    EmperorAtahualpa: I see the Dutchies are still going strong! Keep it up, boys! God bless the Netherlands. :) May-03-06    iron maiden: Today Timman won against Hector in 34 moves; Atalik won as black in 29. May-03-06    EmperorAtahualpa: Standings after round 6: 1. Jan Timman: 5½ points 2. Daniel Stellwagen 4½ points 3. Suat Atalik 4 points 4. Tiger Hillarp-Persson 3½ points 5 - 7. Alexei Fedorov, Pontus Carlsson, Emanuel Berg 2½ points 8. Slavko Cicak 2 points 9 - 10. Igor Khenkin, Jonny Hector 1½ points May-03-06    percyblakeney: Stellwagen is doing well again, in Corus B earlier this year he won against Lahno, but in the other 12 games he scored 4 draws and 8 losses... May-03-06    EmperorAtahualpa: <percyblakeney> Yes I remember that from Corus. On the day that I visited Corus I also saw Stellwagen lose, I believe it was against Giovanni Vescovi. When I was waiting in the evening at the bus-stop, Stellwagen walked by and he looked very tired but also frustrated. He is a very shy boy though, a weird fellow! May-03-06    TIMER: So far Timman has 5.5/6 (92%) against an average oppoent of 2553, giving him a rating performance of 2954! Timman is in great form, playing like a top player again in this event. May-04-06    Maatalkko: Timman is the best! I somewhat irrationally bet all of my ChessBookie points on him to win this tournament, but it looks like I lucked out on that one! He used to be a great player, and although that fades with age it doesn't disappear entirely. Contrary to what most people think, I believe that the older players in a tournament have the most potential for a spectacular result. Although prodigies are fast improving, the old legends like Timman can always turn out amazing results if they return to their youthful form.

I didn't expect such a performance. It is very exciting! May-05-06    Jim Bartle: "Timman has a tendency to tire, though, and fade toward the end of tournaments." Boy, I'll bet whoever made that comment after 3 rounds feels like an idiot about now. May-05-06    technical draw: Hold on Jim, let me see who said that. Never mind.

God bless the Netherlands. :)> Is it the same God of the Armenians? :) Congrats to Timman BTW... May-07-06    waddayaplay: <Timman has a tendency to tire, though, and fade toward the end of tournaments. Boy, I'll bet whoever made that comment after 3 rounds feels like an idiot about now.> Well last two rounds he drew in 12 and 14 moves respectively. Timman vs Fedorov, 2006 P Carlsson vs Timman, 2006 May-07-06    percyblakeney: Timman was impressive and it's fun to see him play well. At the same time he may have been slightly "lucky" a couple of times. Berg refused the draw and played on to lose, Cicak had a clear draw when he blundered, and Stellwagen missed the winning continuation. But in all I think he deserved his "luck"... May-08-06    Marvol: <waddayaplay: Well last two rounds he drew in 12 and 14 moves respectively.> Yes well maybe that's because he was leading easily? No need for him to take risks or what. search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 2 OF 2 ·  Later Kibitzing> NOTE: Create an account today to post replies and access other powerful features which are available only to registered users.
