Feb-18-12 | | bronkenstein: Mamed missed one tricky intermediate and that was it. PS he actually made 14 moves, and was lost in 13th. |

Well we must be due for a new top SGM who's name starts with K right? |
|
Feb-18-12 | | brankat: <Penguincw> <And lastly, just so that I don't forget <brankat>, it's brankat vs. NN, 1-0 in Round I.> Much appreciated! :-) |
|
Feb-18-12 | | waustad: Some notice of the ladies in Tbilisi would be nice. A rapids tournament with many of the top female players with only one draw in 2 rounds is rather fun. 15m + 6s is rather quick, but it is fun watching Pia and Maia beat up on the unguns (so far). |
|
Feb-19-12 | | waustad: Congrats to Moro. |
|
Feb-19-12 | | wordfunph: Alexander Morozevich --- 2012 Petrov Memorial Rapid Tournament Champion, congrats! |
|
Feb-19-12
 | | Penguincw: Other than a small slip in Round 2, Morozevich was crushing from there on. Congratz! < brankat: <Penguincw> <And lastly, just so that I don't forget <brankat>, it's brankat vs. NN, 1-0 in Round I.>Much appreciated! :-) >
No problem. Hehe. ;) |
|
Feb-19-12 | | Shams: A lot of miniatures in this tournament. Toys, even. |
|
Feb-22-12
 | | Check It Out: There are some serious train wrecks here - I love to see these guys play when their rating is not on the line. |
|
Mar-02-12 | | Atking: It seems to me there is a problem, it was Petroff Memorial and no one played his defense! |
