| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: <brankat: <malthrope> Yes, I did the same. 100 bucks :-)> $137 here - I was clearly over optimistic! ~lol~ Getting killed in the - 83rd Hastings Chess Congress (2008) - can pick any result right! :-( |

| | brankat: <malthrope> I did surprisingly well with my first Hastings bet yesterday. Betting (only) $20.00 on Eames as Black (ELO just over 2300) to beat GM Georgiev. The odds 22 - 1 :-) Today I placed $50 on G.Jones. |
|

| | brankat: <malthrope> <*can't* rather...> Figured as much :-) |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: <brankat> - Eames is a giant killer! Who knew? :) Jones has never beat Pert before (2 losses and 1 draw)... So, I'm trying a small bet on Pert! Hope one us wins and it's not a bloody draw! ;) |

 | | Stonehenge: <Hope it's not a bloody draw>. I actually hope it's a bloody draw, not a boring one. |

|
| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: Harikrishna just beat Landu... Hua looks to beat Marin. ...And, 'Ivanchuk vs. Radjabov' will be starting very shortly (Jako beat Inarkiev 1½-½ to advance). Rapids Games live... // http://www.russiachess.org/online/ |

|
| Jan-06-08 | | slomarko: thanks god navara won the last one at least he won't lose tons of points. |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: Chuky-Radja the 2nd game was a draw (BOOC ending)... Blitz is next - don't blink! ;) |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | slomarko: malthrope this is the Torneo di Capodanno page. |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: <slomarko: malthrope this is the Torneo di Capodanno page.> Oh you can *read* too how nice! ;) |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | geeker: I'm OK with malthrope posting ACP Rapid comments here; that event has no dedicated page. ;-) |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | slomarko: well why don't you ask CG to make a page about that particular event? i'm sure they will grant it. |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | malthrope: Korchnoi-Tiviakov - draw!
By the time CG.com makes a link to the ACP Rapids event it will be over... |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | Mameluk: Harikrishna won with a nice combination today. 20. Nxf8 instead of taking queen back was what Landa overlooked. |
|
| Jan-06-08 | | slomarko: this is the position Mameluk talks about
