Only Morozevich... (and maybe Topalov) Aug-14-09    Ladolcevita: <nuwanda> thank you Aug-14-09    percyblakeney: With one round to go Morozevich, Avrukh, Kuzubov and Areshchenko share the lead. Aug-14-09    percyblakeney: Kuzubov is one of all those players born in 1990, he was ahead of Carlsen in the first three lists of 2005 but had a long plateau after that. Aug-14-09    redwhitechess: another great sicilian win by moro. gm marin bosiocic vs gm hou yifan is draw by repetition. force by black, i think from the opening black is under pressure and many pawns hanging. nice game. Aug-14-09    Fish55: Hess is having another great tournament, just 1/2 point back at 6-2! Aug-15-09    nuwanda: last round is on its way, go Moro go ... Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: If Moro is awake this early anything can happen... Aug-15-09    nuwanda: Avrukh plays fast and i'm sure these are all well known paths, but my computer already likes the white position after 9.Bxc4 Nxc4 10.e6 ... Aug-15-09    Ladolcevita: if you dont attack,would you lose?< Yifan's game....> Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: Moro is crushing Avrukh here, unless something happens in time trouble. Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: Maybe it did, 34. dxc5 was immediately winning. Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: Moro has gone from +6 to worse in a few moves... Aug-15-09    slomarko: i can't believe Moro missed 28.Qf6 and 34.dc5 Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: It's a repeat performance of the game against Vachier-Lagrave, easy win for Avrukh now. Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: 33. ... c5 was probably just a final swindle try by Avrukh, hoping that Moro would miss that it's just to take the bishop with the rook after 34. dxc5 Bxc5 since Qd1+ Qf1 leaves black piece down with a lost position. Aug-15-09    percyblakeney: Hou Yifan did well to finish even with Moro on 6.5 points. Aug-15-09    redwhitechess: avruk the deserved winner. hou also finished the game with nice mating combo. Aug-15-09    SimonWebbsTiger: I cannot help but think there is a little moral victory for the girls: Hou finished just above Giri! I thought Moro played some truly entertaining games; but how on earth does one explain his implosion to Avrukh??? Aug-15-09    redwhitechess: will it be a play off between Avrukh and Areschenko? after this is the Champion simuls and rapid. will the rapid game qualified to CG? Aug-15-09    Ladolcevita: congrats to HouYifan!~~Not bad!~ Aug-15-09    dumbgai: There's nobody better than Moro at winning lost positions, or losing winning ones... Aug-23-09    virginmind: kramnik won the rapid august 23rd event in zurich, anand 2nd, topalov 3rd... Aug-23-09    cu8sfan: <virginmind: kramnik won the rapid august 23rd event in zurich, anand 2nd, topalov 3rd...> And Ponomariov was the only player in the simul that didn't lose a single half point. Aug-23-09    DCP23: Kramnik wins the Champions Rapid in Zurich, Switzerland today: 1 Kramnik Vladimir 5 2 Anand Viswanathan 4.5 3-4 Ponomariov Ruslan, Topalov Veselin 4 5 Khalifman Alexander 3 6-8 Karpov Anatoly, Polgar Judit, Hug Werner 2.5 Official results page: http://www.sgzurich2009-live.ch/en/...
