 | | Marmot PFL: Israel would have been much stronger with Gelfand, but Sutovsky on board 1 was over his head. |
 |

Not just awesome -- absolutely unbelievable (especially for Svidler!)> Now what do you mean by that <especially for Svidler!> remark? |

Nov-06-07
 | | Gypsy: Svidler with two draws and five strong wins over Berg, Sutovsky, Navara, Mamedyarov and Ivanchuk! It seems that he is in a grand form; just he peaked only after the Mexico tournament. |
 |
Nov-06-07
 | | Gypsy: Navara and Mamedyarov with great results, except for their losses to Svidler. |

 | | notyetagm: <DCP23: Perfomance overview for Peter Svidler> Svidler was -awesome- in this tournament.
And just think, Svidler finished near the bottom at the Mexico City World Chess Championship and was one of the "weak" kind of players that Anand demolishes, according to Kramnik. |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | chessmoron: Ivanchuk has took a major dive. Topalov will be 3. Kramnik is #2 and is looking for more. |
 |
Nov-06-07
 | | acirce: Yes, Ivanchuk loses 15.8 points with a 2623 performance, Topalov gains 1.7, Morozevich gains 10, Mamedyarov 4.6 etc ... (all still according to the site, haven't checked; http://chess-results.com/tnr8333.as... for the rest) |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | Mameluk: Many big names at the top of the performance list with Roiz being a Mr. Breakthrough here. Even Adams appeared there after great finish. I am glad for Navara and Hracek who desperately needed to gain some rating. Ivanchuk´s failure was another big story, Mamedyarov will attack his place. |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | Mameluk: Polish men showed that no matter the scoring system this is still a Swiss. |
 |

 | | notyetagm: <chessmoron: Ivanchuk has took a major dive.> :-(
|
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | chessmoron: <notyetagm> Don't worry. He still has a couple of chances to get it back at Tal Memorial. |

1. Svidler 2989 !!>
Amazing how Svidler could win only 1(!) game at the Mexico City World Chess Championship (in the last round, based heavily on prep!) but here he has a near 3000(!) performance. |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | chessmoron: I guess Svidler doesn't like Greek food and finally he focused on his games a bit. The results shows. An amazing 2989+ performance. His win against Mamedyarov is very special. |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | su24: DCP23: Kak ti tak bisto ELO podschitivaesh? :)
Kstati, esli on chessbase ti pod tem zhe handle'om, to mi ne raz igrali blitz i rapid ;) |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | ifatkullin: <DCP23 Now what do you mean by that <especially for Svidler!> remark?> Just that I'd never expect such a "bloodthirsty calculated demolishion" to be executed by Peter ;-)Always thought of him as a "teddy bear" kind of guy... |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | yogi1986: Some of the younger people here should check out Peter's games from when he was winning Russian championships. He was renowned as one of the most ferocious up and coming players on the circuit along with Judith and Morozevich |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | Riverbeast: <Israel would have been much stronger with Gelfand, but Sutovsky on board 1 was over his head.> Sutovsky is a strong player who can play with anyone...He scored about 50% on board one, so I wouldn't say he was in 'over his head'. Having him on board 2, with everyone else moving down a board, would have made the Israelis much stronger, of course. |
 |
| Nov-06-07 | | DUS: <khursh: <And a photo from the "Border War", Azerbaijan-Armenia. Mamedyarov and Aronian seem to be sitting as far apart from each other as possible> :))) very good photo. As I know in real life they have good relations and very good character. So in chess let them be "at war" - it is good for chess community!> <khursh> thanks for nice posting. I also think they have good relations. In one interview Mamedyarov's father has mentioned that Levon Aronian calls his son Sharik. (Perhaps Mamedyarov calls Aronian simply Levik.) This was nice chess championship. As many others I am also glad for the medal of Azerbaijan team and hope we will see more nice games in particular in performance of Mamedyarov and Radjabov. |
